    ....if we're not down already.

    Fowls and Donny Rovers away and Millwall at home. We need nine points. We'll probably get two. At best.

    The transfer window will be crucial in deciding our fate, unfortunately while everyone has there ideas on who should be sold actually getting someone to pay for them will take a minor miracle. If danny can manage that and spend the money wisely on transfer/loans then we may have a chance although personally am going along the lines of expecting us to be relegated in the hope of another end of season surprise

    Let's hope Jennings and Noble-Lazurus come back chomping at the bit. I heard Karl Robinson has been singing Jennings praises and wants to extend his loan.

    I would like to see them back I the squad, along with the likes of TK, Perkins, Dawson McNulty, Dagnall........all sold on.

    But let's not get carried away, if RNL and Jennings were playing at anything like a good performance level, they would not have been shipped out on loan to lower league clubs. I think we are all hoping they come back and rip teams apart......will it happen? Very doubtful.

    I'm hopeful that if Danny plays them, he will play them in their best positions. Who knows it could be like having 2 new signings. Oh and didn't Flicker say RNL deserved a run of games and then dropped him for the next game. Said he was a victim of the change in the way we played.

    Why do you attend Conan? Genuine question, not criticism.

    Your general demeanour is like Dragon Tyke after his favourite hamster has died.

    What has CT said in this thread to prompt these responses?

    Those matches in February are crucial.
    Our results against those teams so far this season certainly suggest we won't get much more than 2-3 points.
    We most probably will need 9 points.
    We're bottom of the league.

    I don't really get why his post is being questioned when it makes total sense.

    He wants us to be a success and doesn't think we're maximising the chances of doing that with some of our team selections. Hard to disagree based on our position isn't it?

    It's going to be a struggle getting nine points from these games but I agree we probably need them to stay up. Flicker has pi55ed away too many points this season and has virtually sealed our fate but in Danny we have a glimmer of hope.

    conan is a realist and is entitled to his opinion on matters,being fcukin deluded and thinking everything is rosey isn't going to keep us up.
    I personally think its too late,we have,like Mario says pissed away a lot of points and its going to take some clawing back and even now we are relying on others dropping like a stone.I f we don't pick some points up sharpish we've definately had it and are going to get relegated,even looking forward to January and the transfer/loan window I'm not very optimistic,we cant attract players for starters and loan players will be sat on their arses till the end of January before deciding to give us a go on the last day,by then if we havnt secured a dozen or so points we are shafted.

    on the other hand,if we lick derby and Birmingham things will look a whole lot better and that I suppose is why we support and follow the club.

    So anyone who thinks we will stay up is ****in deluded then Dek and anyone who thinks we will be relegated is a realist.

    Well I`m feckin deluded without thinking everything is rosey then, but then I`ve thought we would survive every season since we came back up.

    I`ve no problem with James airing his opinions and because it opposes mine I dont dislike him or his views, if anything he his one of the better posters on here, he angles well and goes OTT when he is rotating the opposition but still a joy to read.

    conan seems to get a fair bit of stick for saying as he see's it,and to get comments asking him why he actually goes is pathetic as is insuating he just goes to find things to pick faults at.

    I know that I did n`t say that and have in the past said the same as you in his defence. So as to why I am feckin deluded for having an alternate opinion is basically giving me what they were giving Conan. Aint it Dek.
