    With this manager and these players we are going down. I am absolutely certain of it.

    Just look at the teams we have lost to on this current run - three of them were in the bottom four at the time (two still are) and we also failed to beat another hopeless side in Blackpool.

    Satdi was one of the most inept and lifeless games I have ever had the misfortune to witness. This does not look like a team fighting for their manager.

    They are a bunch of losers taking us one way.

    OK Conan, I'll bet you £100 we don't.

    Waste of time betting as it will be voided when he gets the boot.

    The club has a losing mentality all way through from 1st team, U21's and Under 18's. Time for a change

    To be fair I think you've said this every season since I've been on here, so I'm not sure you're sticking your neck out. And its only happened once to date, so I'm not sure your predictions are very accurate!

    Said it under the Berk and it would have happened if not for Portsmouth's points deduction and him getting the boot the next season.

    Said it under Davey and it would have happened had we not brought a proper manager in to replace him. Never said it under MR and never said it last season.

    I'll bet you £100 as well. I'll even give you the bet, if he gets sacked. Losing bet donates to WSB Charity.

    Because I'm saying I will. If we go down or he gets sacked, I'll pay up. If we stay up, you pay up

    Agree mostly, but I think we have a team to compete in this division, it's clear now tho that they can't compete with the stifling tactics employed and the environment that exists at the club. Changes in the right places will show dividends, just have to jettison the present management that is the root cause.

    I hope you're wrong CT but right now I wouldn't be surprised if you were right. I can only see more pain unless there are some big changes.

    If he's here beyond February I will be surprised so someone might come in and save us but it's looking very desperate at the minute.
