    There is no way any money is coming in before the end of the season & I think most good candidates would wait until the end of the season before taking the job,
    for various reasons, compensation, not wanting a relegation against their name, etc

    Hard to know what the way forward is - i fear that an appointment made in haste may be very bad... imo that would be Megson, or any past player, just to keep fans happy for a few weeks until transfer window closes.

    Any ideas on a postcard.

    Win a few games and get on the better side of the relegation zone again.

    it is not the 4 points

    look at the table - only 4 teams in the mixer - anybody with more than 4 brain cells can work out that is only a 25% chance of staying up & we have just lost our only goalscorer
    & need a new manager

    please somebody post an intelligent reply

    be positive, if any players read the negativity that will surely lift them. NOT... Hills gone, hope we get a good manager, get behind the team. Chin up

    ok then is this intelligent enough, despite our woeful record, win 2 or 3 games and we bring a whole heap of **** onto other clubs, including the likes of Wolves.

    its not about negativity

    i've watched the team since 1974 & if any players are looking to me for inspiration on this board they are truly f@@ked - wiseman, done, mcnulty, et al....

    fans need to get real. the money has dried up. wake up & smell the coffee.

    That doesn't mean to say we have to give up. Until its mathematically impossible, I will believe we will stay up.

    If the country said that 1939 we would all be little Adolph's.

    There are more than enough points for us to go for to stay up. The fat lady aint sung yet mate.

    Keep the faith.

    This is the best I can do at the minute...

    x^4 -5x^2+4 = (x²-1)(x²-4) = (x+1)(x-1)(x+2)(x-2)

    b@ll@x - you don't get my point at all

    people on here moaning all the time, without coming up with a constructive idea

    i the words of the who "meet the new boss, same as the old boss" - will keep people positive for 2 weeks to have neil redfearn or gary megson in place, then crowds will go down even more

    I'm not a big man, I just don't accept that we're down just because you tell me to. I don't have the answers either - that's not my area of expertise - but Tomi's suggestion sounds pretty good to me.

    are we chuff, even with just a slight change in luck we could pick up enough points to be well back in the mix. The new manager factor will probably do that on its owwn
