Quoted from forza ivano


We've won 1 league game (against an incredibly abysmal Salford) in over 2 months and are bottom of the form table.
Add into it the lack of pragmatism and  'we are too good to go down" philosophy  that seems to permeate from the top and I fear we are sleepwalking to a THIRD relegation into the non league abyss

Ps i am not anti Artell  n would love it to work out, buy I fear the worst



At this stage, it doesn’t matter how we get over the line… As long as we do!

A third relegation to non-league abyss, would be catastrophic & cement our status as a lower end of league 2/top end of national league club.

If we do stay up, a serious investigation has to take place. This season simply hasn’t been good enough & we will see that with an inevitable drop of season ticket sales.

I’m as upset/angry/frustrated as anyone that we’re in this position. However, now has to be the time to pull together.


Sleep well Icey, Matty and Richard. Keep each other company up there xx

Quoted from GrimRob
I put us to beat Sutton and FGR and lose everything else and we still stayed up!

Embarrassing staying up with 35 points but I will take it


That ain’t happening. I’d say FGR have got a good 5 or 6 wins in them. We need to win games.

I honestly think we’re down, and it’s ruining my mood completely. God, I hope I’m wrong.

It's no good relying on what other clubs do, we have the opportunity ourselves to make sure we avoid the drop. It's up to Artell to ensure ' We're too good to go down'.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

My plan would be forget playing out from the back now..

Let's get us enough points to stay up.

Then in the summer break bring in players who like that system.

After 6 weeks playing it every day pre season we will know what we are doing come the start of the season.

Come on Dave you know it makes sense.

Pile into the 8/1 if you genuinely believe it. It might slightly soften the blow.

Someone posted it was 25/1 only a couple of weeks ago.

I’m not a betting man, and I’d take no solace from winning such a bet, if I’m honest.

8 points?! I’d snatch your hand off. Good luck to you. I can’t see where the next win is coming from.

Of the top 7 at the moment I think I am correct we only have Crewe away Wrexham home barrow away my dons at home which gives quite the easiest run in most of the other have still got Stockport and Wrexham to play


All 4 of the other main relegation contenders still to play. Those are the critical ones.
