sage Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 1 minute ago, Boycie said: They could have won too, it wouldn’t be the first time more attempts on goal didn’t mean a win or draw. Its just depressing, if we’d have drawn that we’d have been very lucky. The desire just wasn’t there, stats make fools of people. Err they did win.

Boycie Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 2 minutes ago, Jourdan said: Of course we are not down. How can we be down with 30 games to play and 90 points to play for, or even 81 if you include an incoming points deduction? We have ten games in the next nine weeks to build a platform for the second half of the season. This is where Rooney sinks or swims. First time I’ve considered that we could though.

Gritstone Tup Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 13 minutes ago, Boycie said: We’re down. Slow out from the back, no desire to get the tempo up from the defence. Hollywood passes from midfield to the strikers. Striker link up play depressing. Forget the admin points, and the incoming ffp points, we’d be down anyway if Mel had stayed on. I can’t agree with that! Yes a bad day at the office but we’ve earned 17pts so far with a very scratch team and would be 5pts outside drop zone if we hadn’t been deducted 12pts. Tremendous character so far but everyone needs to stick together and get to January now. Ramifications and Premier ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why has it only just dawned on you now? We're down already and we're pretty much guaranteed to get another points deduction. I don't get why everyone's bothered by results, this whole seasons pointless. jimtastic56, Chris_Martin and Boycie 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boycie Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 Maybe the thought of new investment coming in has made the players on “embargo” wages wonder what their futures hold? New owners, no embargo, new players incoming must be unsettling especially when you’ve taken a massive pay cut when other better offers may have come in over the last window? jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black ('n' White) Sheep Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Yep, first time I've thought it this season too ? There's a gap opening up between us and 'the rest' and I'm struggling to see where we're going to get enough points from with this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
