We need to go for wins the problem being if we open up too much we look easy to play against and we've had a lot of our so called creative players injured.

Think the Bradford/Bolton games look hard esp, hope im wrong but think are best chance of survival has gone in last couple of months.

Quoted from thefish
Salford have slipped up recently...


And consequently sacked Wellens and appointed Gary Bowyer this week.

Anyone else think that we play better against good teams because they set up to be positive? There's always coupon busters, where a bottom team beats a top team especially in the run in. Why can't it be us?

Got to go now, nursery has just come in with my medicine. 😳

Bradford, Barrow and Port Vale all got a boost by changing manger, but sadly our new manager took fifteen games to chalk up his second win. The dropped points in February and March are what has made our task virtually impossible. If we could just have scraped a couple  more wins during that period, to give us between 4 and 6 extra points we would be in contention  now.

As it is, I hope I am wrong, but I just can't see us overtaking two of the teams ahead of us.

On that amazing day in 2016 I told myself as I left Wembley that we would surely not be stupid enough to ever risk dropping out of the league again.

But then I was forgetting who was running the club.

And he still is. Watching us descend into the oblivion of the NL while cashing his cheque.

and
Fenty watched as Town dropped

The run in has become irrelavent, we are doomed, the damage is done, dropping two points against Wallsall who themselves are in a very poor run was one of the final nails in the coffin, I would love to be proved wrong but fear we will play our last two games with relegation confirmed.

Yes agree we haven’t got a chance now.

No goal scorer has cost us all season and it has never been addressed.

I think it's been fated since the beginning of the season. Too many short sighted decisions and terrible recruitment means we never got going and once we dropped to the bottom of the league, we have never recovered. Hurst has steadied the ship but it's too little too late and our lack of a goal threat is going to see us in non league again.

The board that took us down last time, totally failed to address the problems that caused our last relegation, even when it nearly happened again and we escaped by the skin of our teeth. A terrible era in the clubs history is going to end as expected, with more failure.

We could be stuck down there for years.
