Results business is the common name for what we're in.

Yes it's JF and IH fault were in this mess and it is results we need now. 27 games, 21 point tells part of the story. 2 points and 3 goals from Christmas tells the truth and every excuse you can think of. I have read posts that the 'new' team needs time to gel, to get use to each other and 4/5 games should make them a fighting unit or words to that effect.

WAKEY WAKEY we haven't got time, it's running out. The niceties of football have gone and it's results we need. When do we need them, NOW.  4/5 games and shall we be kind and say 3 points would put us just above Barrow assuming they lose there 4/5 games and 2 games in hand.

4/5 games would make it 32 played and 11 left and with my generous extra points (3) would give us 24 points. Will a newly gelled team get 33 points from the last 11 games. It's nice to dream. Barrow will be a 6 pointer and if we win they may still have 2 games in hand.

I'm optimistic but it's a very, very tall order even for Hursty. I am starting to wonder if, like an implication I read, that he said to the consortium that it is a mess, I might be able to salvage it but we should plan for the worst.

Optimistic as I am until it's mathematically impossible to survive I think the reality of our situation is slowly gradually starting to kick in.

Where did you read what Hurst said to the Consortium?

If they have any knoweldge of football at all, I think they will know what a mess it is.

We'll know by the end of the month I guess.

I’m sure we’re all massively grateful to you for pointing out that we need to win games. Until then I thought things were ticking along nicely. Another bizarre and pointless post from the very odd DB. Something doesn’t ring true about this poster.

We need to win games to stay up, I’m sure nobody would have thought of that.

That's point of the post so people in cuckoo land need waking up.

To explain the post to you, even though make meaningless personal comments, I like others are fed up of reading excuses for very poor performances. Some still say give it time, I'm sure we'll stay up ( but not how). Even GrimRob predicted we'd go down.

So if you don't the reality of the situation buy some rose coloured glass's.

As I pointed out days ago, Specsavers have sold out of rose tinted glasses.
