Far from being in crisis. All it takes is one good run from us and we're right in the mix. People need to get a grip seriously. 2 points from 12. 3 of those games at home. All against weak perceived opposition. What from this tells you we will go on a run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McClaren has a history of failing to find the answers when his team's go through a sticky patch so I'm curious to see how it changes, if indeed it does at all And that's a crisis is it? Bit melodramatic to my mind. Crap season maybe, frustrating and annoying, for sure, but a crisis, most definitely not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say we are an average Championship club the sooner people accept this then the sooner the whinging posts will disappear from here every time we lose a game.

I mean its lovely being so positive and all that but come on 3 points from 12 is hardly catapulting us up the table is it ?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarrowRam Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 The trouble is we have chopped and changed managers over the last two seasons. We've had no stability and mcclaren is back to try again. Like someone posted we need to forget about the play off final in 2014. Mel and Sam have to put a plan in place and stick to it. We should be looking at the likes of Southampton. A well run club with a long term vision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Pearson was poor for us but to blame him for our failings is ridiculous. The sooner people accept that we are actually bang average, the better. Looking for excuses(ie. blaming Pearson) won't help anyone. I'm looking forward to next season's excuses, maybe people will say that McClaren doesn't feed them well enough They have!!! It's you who's tortured by a sense of greater entitlement. It's utterly bizarre you'd level this accusation at others given your own shortcomings in this very specific regard. In fact it beggars belief! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not getting promoted to the top division is a crisis, then the club has spent most of its history in one.

Steve How Hard? Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 NEW FLASH: Derbyshire emergency services are expected to be stretched to the limit this evening as the lemming element of the DCFC fan base prepare to launch themselves off the nearest cliff face after a resounding 1-0 thrashing.

I agree that this season we have been average and some real quality additions need to be made but since when has being average constituted a crisis? Those who think being mid table is one are totally deluded and have expectations way higher than they should be, for this season at the very least.
