Weird - love to hear why people think Dave Boddy is an issue, Sound bloke, not like some of the other dubious characters we've had around our club.

People appointed because of having a track record of not playing in your home town and managing the situation.

OK G, I assume you mean this bit...from the CET, after he'd been appointed.


'He is a divisive figure among Worcester supporters after City’s ground was sold for housing during his tenure in 2008.

A planned move to a new ground subsequently fell through after it hit financial troubles and Worcester City are now homeless after leaving their home of 108 years in 2013.

The club currently ground shares with Bromsgrove after three years sharing playing facilities with Kidderminster'

As bad as we are right now there’s 5 teams that are worse.
I’m holding out for my 14th prediction but we need goals soon.

For those that genuinely think we'll go down, we're generally 4/1 for relegation...

What does that have to do with Birmingham? They’re also struggling and will be down there soon too.

Where did I say miles ? We can’t keep clean sheets it’s amateur the way we concede and we have no threat up front it’s relegation fodder

Well you don't seem to think they're in the relegation fight despite being below us & with even less threat up front than us (even with all their strikers fit) & conceding more goals than us?

Somewhere between 16th and 21st and I’m expecting the top end of that. Your next 3 games are very winnable, then In your last 12 games at least 8 could be dead rubber games for your opponents, and 2 against relegation battlers.

I applaud the other 2 people who, alongside me, voted for 1st to 6th place.

In all seriousness, we’ll survive. Robins has done a great job and this is acknowledged by just about every neutral in coverage of our games.

It’s good we have a neutral on this forum because when people are emotionally invested, as we all are on here (with the exception of yourself), we panic when we lose.

I judge teams on blocks of 10 games rather than isolated recent results, in your last 10 you picked up 13 points,
The 10 before that 9 points, that’s a steady improvement, and as I say your last block of 10 looks to have plenty of realistic points in it for you. But your next 3 games are absolutely massive, could be season defining they’re that important.

Always thought it would be a season long battle defined by injuries. Above the relegation slots will be a fab finish for me.

Yes it is - but we are not alone. Some teams above us could drop in yet.

Most football fans are fücked in the head, due to being so invested in their team, I’ve been exactly the same in my youth, now I’ve learned to chill and see the bigger picture, rather than over reacting at recent events.
We’ve just lost our last three games, and although I avoid our Forum I know for a fact the doom and gloom merchants will be out in full force, complaining about not scoring, letting James go without a fight, not signing unrealistic strikers, and being absolutely convinced we’re going down. But the reality of it is in our last 10 games we’ve won 5 lost 5 the 5 we lost were to Bournemouth, Swansea, Norwich, Swansea, & Watford. But rather than wait and see what the next block of 10 which looks far more comfortable brings, they’ll be having kittens trying to convince everyone we’re doomed, and every football forum on the Internet is the exact same, our love for our clubs fücks some people’s head up.

Have you noticed how some of our fans like to kneejerk on a game to game basis? Wish you hadn't mentioned next 3 games massive - it could tip them over the edge.

Define carry on like we are...
The last game?
The last 3, 5, 10?

Seems an awful lot of knee jerk reactions from one game by some & ignoring that we comprehensively won the previous one.

Good to see you've written Gyökeres off already, no surprise there
Walker should hopefully be back soon too which improves us significantly.

You seem to think everyone else is banging in loads of goals & have impenetrable defences.
In reality there's other teams in the league that are currently worse than us at both ends of the pitch.

We don't need to be good, we just need to be better than 3 others which, currently we comfortably are.

I liked the new striker still think he suits a 2 but let’s see how he goes crazy we’re pinning our hopes on him for these crucial games,let’s hope we don’t rush walker back like we did Godden tho

On other threads you've said he's "poor" & (your favourite saying) "not at the level"

I suppose you're covering all bases as usual.

Can you find where I said that ?

Or did I say our strike force is poor ?
