Spanish Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share Posted December 17, 2020 Millwall15:00Nottingham Forest I thought millwall may of got dragged into the relegation but regrettably it doesn’t look like it. Rotherham United15:00Derby County Sheffield Wednesday15:00Coventry the table looks awful for Wendy and they must take the chance to win this one but Coventry have proved to be no mugs this year Wycombe Wanderers15:00Queens Park Rangers a draw won’t do Wycombe much good, QPR just doing enough to stay out of trouble for now but they will be looking over their shoulders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owls look like they have problems off the pitch so at the moment it is not a bad thing having them take points away from a potential relegation candidate Florist draw having the game postponed was not great and with there being no midweek games it doesn’t give us much of an advantage with regards to rest.

On the same points as Coventry but losing to boro isn’t that significant. 3 defeats on the trot so not great but I always look to goal diff for an indication. What makes you think they are circling the plug hole? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think they are circling the plug hole? Not in good form and points total is not a million miles away, same points as Coventry. Millwall would be in the same boat if they weren't drawing rather than losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I'd still like to think there are going to be (at least) three worse teams than us this season. Based on tonight's performance, and to be honest the majority of the last month or so, there should be plenty of teams worse than us this season, including Birmingham who were one of the worst teams we've faced this season. They look a bit like we did at the start of the season so they certainly need something to turn around. Of our next four games, we face Sheff Wed (22nd), Rotherham (23rd) and QPR (19th). We should be able to have a much better indication of how deep into this relegation battle we really are in just a few short weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram59 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I think Karanka will be on his way soon, he's not popular down here in Brum. Interesting to note that our results against the top 4 is 2 wins and 2 draws. It shows what could have been this season, especially when you consider the 17 points lost late on in games. On a side note, if the season was abandoned tonight, after taking their 6 point deduction into account, Wednesday would be above Forest on average points per game.

He picked a strange line up. 3 holding players in central midfield? No wonder hogan was isolated. Seems odd when playing a struggling team at home. Plus they have some good attacking midfielders - somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wollatonram Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 my worry is forest is they will just buy their way out of trouble again, i hope we do when the takeover is done but that is a big big concern I think qpr will get dragged in, they can't defend to save their lives and birmingham cant score.

superzak Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Half a season to go and unless a miracle happens at the January sales I think there's a chance we get cut adrift at the foot of the table. Saying that 2 of my favourite seasons were spent in the old 3rd division under Arthur Cox... I never missed a game home or away. Financially not good for the club but we were the big fish in the pool and going away to places like Grimsby and completely taking over the ground was brilliant. Of course you didn't need tickets in them days...you paid on the door and they got you in somewhere lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they blew there wad in the summer on wages if not fees. I can think of at least 7-8 players that they must be using as doorstops on 10-15 k a week. Actually didn't they sign Blackett, just remembered him. another one that's being used as a draft excluder. wollatonram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still got players like Hefele who never play who dropped from the premier league. They had a first team - without the kids - of about 30 prior to bringing in Arter etc late on. They sold Cash for about 12 mil? but expect that would only cover the wages they added for a year. You could be right, but it would be loans rather than permanent I think.
