    I desperately want us to win on Saturday, put an end to this abysmal run, string a few wins together and climb away from relegation.

    On the other, I've seen us play in every division, including a never to be forgotten season in the Premier League, I've seen us play at both the old and new Wembley, I've seen us win and lose play-off finals, I've seen us in the quarter final of the league cup, outplaying the European Champions at Anfield, and the semi-final of the FA Cup, I've seen us beat Man Utd, Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool, Tottenham, Newcastle, West Ham and Aston Villa. So, I might as well see the longest losing run of league games in our history. And if we do lose to both Oldham and Sheff Utd, but don't sack Lee Johnson, it'll be funny to watch the heads of some folk literally explode.

    I don't think folk's heads would literally explode (very messy) Jay. Figuratively maybe ;)

    With the ire displayed on here I think it might actually happen.

    Jay I think you aren't treating our bad run in the way you should - ie let it ruin your life. Black humour and stoicism is so passe

    I have a feeling Conan's just might, so there are some positives to us losing a couple more.

    I got all passionate and that and shouted at Ben Pearson at the weekend. My friends called me a daft lovely person and told me to sit down.

    It was good advice.

    It was indeed good advice. The people that want shouting at sit in the director's box. But I don't think shouting at them would be a really good idea. So I chill.

    I am now at that point where it's funny for us to lose & I'm almost enjoying it.

    Gives me summat to talk about anyway.

    you forgot the Millenium stadium matey

    could you not make that one? I saw you put that you seen us win and lose play-off finals, did you watch it on TV? If you were not able to get to it you missed a helluva day out.

    Didn't know that.

    I'm going to make the effort to go to Frickley this season to see him. Just off to check their fixture list...

    Not really. They are 3 points off the play offs, we are in a relegation place. Promotion for them and relegation for us is highly possible this season leaving us separated by one league.z

    Frickley's ground isn't up to Conference standards (and never will be), so we'd have to fall through League 2 and through the Conference to ever meet them. I don't care how bad you think Lee Johnson is, or the board, that's just not going to happen.
