You can still get around 4/1 for us to go down.
No, at the moment I’d genuinely be surprised if we stay up.

This division is very equal and just as open for a number of clubs to do a “Forest”. We are not playing that bad and certainly not division “whipping boys” before the Middlesbrough game we had eight out of twelve home games coming up I said we need to win five of them and felt Burnley wouldn’t be one, get O’Hare & Hamer back and up to speed I’m sure we’ll be fineNext 3

Wouldn't say a good run of games exactly, hopefully I'm wrong

Rotherham haven’t won since their manager left so if we can’t beat them at home it’s time to prepare for the worstThis division is very equal and just as open for a number of clubs to do a “Forest”.

most people seem very ok with the team and no one seems overly concerned at 1 win in 10
Many reasons cited and no concern at all about potential relegation
Am I the only one to be somewhat concerned?
How many years running now have you started the MR Out narrative?
By the nature of football at some point you’ll be right.
But for me now isn’t the time.
That’s strange, not many were predicting relegation before the season started?This isn’t a Robins issue, the owners won’t back him, there’s only so much any management team can do. Unfortunately the owners want us in the more affordable 3rd tier. The current squad just isn’t up to Championship standard.

The squad is very poor for the level but has 3/4 exceptional players in that dragged us through several games last season. If you take 2 of the 4 out for the majority, you end up with the last 10 games.That’s strange, not many were predicting relegation before the season started?

I agree that if O'hare came back we'd look a lot better and hould get out of trouble.This division is very equal and just as open for a number of clubs to do a “Forest”.

To me it’s a tactical thing as well as a lack of quality. Last year the wing backs were the attacking outlet. This year they seldomly venture forward in the first half. It’s like they are playing with the handbrake on. Dabo caused all sorts of problems in the second half.

Im sure most are concerned but will probably reserve judgement until we’ve caught up our games/at World Cup break.
Robins got it wrong tactically yesterday. Should’ve matched them in midfield and played just Vik up top from the start. Having said that, most teams would struggle having their two most creative players out for a majority of the season so far. We’re just not quite getting the rub of the green either, the possible hand ball/bar Tuesday and bar again yesterday. That’s not even getting into the pitch shambles which basically fucked us (if we had played Rotherham, Wigan and Baggies I’m pretty sure we’d have a few more points on the board)
I still see enough in the team to get us out of trouble if we keep our heads, however, the next few weeks will be a physical and mental battle. Support like the second half yesterday will help
To be honest I feel as if the whole pitch saga and 'catching up games' is providing a bit of a dependable hope and distraction.
If we had played two more games (even if we would have won them) we would still be right down in the bottom. I genuinely think more people would be paying attention to the alarm bells kicking off.
That isn't a go at you by the way. We all want the team to do well and seek solace in as much comfort as we can. However, the team at the moment just reminds me of the year we got promoted. Competing in games but being sloppy at either end in most cases. We need to sort it out otherwise we'll end up going down.

I get your point but my argument is that if we'd won those two games as you say then we'd have been in better form with better morale (plus better match fitness as other teams were playing games while we were barely playing at all) and that the following results would probably have been better as a result.
It's not just the points from the postponed games we're missing, it's the consequences of the disruption they caused.

I think it’s been a combination of factors. Even said to a mate it feels like maybe it’s just not our season. Ohare injury before we kick a ball, pitch, throwing game away at Millwall, hamer two reds in first 6-7 games etc etc. you couldn’t make it up really
Fact is we’ve just got to deal with it now, however, I’ve seen enough in recent games to suggest we can get out it. Let’s see where we are at the break though

Said we needed 2 wins from the next 4 before today.
All eyes on Huddersfield v Hull tomorrow! Home win and it would look pretty bleak
Huddersfield 2 up. 4 points just to make up on them now
'Must win games' will come out soon.There's 36 games left to make up those 4 points.
You make it sound like we must win the next two or we're relegated.
I agree, but my worry is how much gets reinvested when we sell?
I've said it before, I think we'll be ok this year but without significant investment in the squad think we'll be in real trouble soon enough.
I expect us to be back in L1 within 2 seasons.
