Quoted from Abdul19
15 league games IIRC (we reached 20 before beating Chesterfield).


Yes, 12 under Slade and 3 under the interim manager I think.

But we never dropped into the relegation spots at any time in the season, so our destiny was always in our own hands and it was the likes of Barnet and Chesterfield that needed to make up ground.  As we now increasingly need to do.

Look, I get it. There are 19 games left. That is a great deal of points to play for. My problem is that hoping we start winning is just that . A hope. The reality of the results we have seen since the start of the year do not support an optimistic view.

We played well for 45 minutes on Saturday, but lost against 10 men, 10 men in a chronically out of form side that lost to Southend a few days later.

So I have seen nothing to suggest the much desired winning run is around the corner.

Now Saturday is another day. Let's see.  If we win that one, then that might be grounds for more optimism.

I am simply basing my view on what has happened, rather than what I hope will happen. Until I see a change in fortune I must stick with my current view which is, I am gutted to say, that we are going down.

Quoted from TownSNAFU5
As I said Barrow not playing ( and not winning) is a small mercy.  

What I did not see is Salford beating Cambridge ( who are top) 4-1.  Salford are 20 points ahead of us with a game in hand and a vastly superior goal difference.  How did they ever get so far ahead??


Because their owners sacked a reasonably successful manager. Fenty backed hopeless oloway all the way down the league

Quoted from RonMariner


Southend's win tonight put our dismal failure to dispatch Newport's 10 men on Saturday into perspective.

Sorry, but I just don't see us turning this round. A few weeks ago we could have gone above Scunny by beating them. Weekend before last we could have gone above Stevenage by beating them.  On Saturday. They are both now waiving at us from the back of car as it races away.

We have had  so many crunch games recently and haven't won any of them. I think we have used up our nine lives and must start beating decent teams now, lots of them. I don't see it happening.  


That started when oloway got the job, we just didn't see. Specsavers ran out of a certain shade of glasses.

Man City win at Swansea tonight in the Cup and become the first English top flight side to win 15 games on the trot in all competitions.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Let's hope Bolton & Cambridge do us a favour today:

Bolton v Stevenage

Cambridge v Southend

Cambridge started very well  


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Omar Bogle's Donny are 4-1 down at Sunderland. All four goals scored by Charlie Wyke. All four goals insisted by Aiden McGeady.
