    Donny on promotion form but still in trouble. There luck will change and they will still be near bottom, ours will change too I'm confident and push us back up to mid-table.

    Stats can prove anything:

    We think 55 points be safe this season? Yes - out of 138 available
    So 23 from last 54 we got is well on course

    We had some Derby success

    Something we didn't really get in past seasons. I think that is important.

    Davey's stock will rise / fall on that basis. We have the Wendys shortly - and that will be an vital game for many reasons.

    I'd love to know where you think these points (23) are going to come from. That adds up to more than a point a game. Worst case would mean not losing another game this season and winning at least 3 of them. Get real!!

    Its amazing that when you dare to utter the words 'Davey isn't up to the job' you get a cyber kicking of the pro Davey lobby but offer some hard facts and not a whisper.

    Only just, the basic arguement was correct. Whatever way you look at it were not exactly making the year on year improvements that were given as his objective.

    Yeah.

    I'm not sure what to make of the recent run to be honest. I'm by no means a Davey "happy clapper" - the bloke drives me around the twist at times. He is so inconsistent in how he deals with certain players & situations.

    Having said that, it DID appear as though we were improving, but the wheels have now come off completely. Dragon talks about the last 30 points, but really it has been the Norwich; Southampton & Ipswich games that have caused the major doubts.

    The cup was "blamed" for the bad run at this time last season, but there are no such excuse this time around.

    The manager is under pressure, no doubt about it. I hope he turns it around though.

    7 wins from 17 would be enough. Even 6 wins and a couple of draws I'd say. Can you see at least 3 other teams in bottom 8 doing that to send us down? I can't

    Just look at the team for starters

    Too many key players injured and others asked to play out of position. If we are going to have any kind of success in this league and by success I mean a midtable finish at best then we need to have all our better players fit and in a settled team. At the moment were struggling to put a team together. Im not going to slate Davey for that.

    <font size="2">the worst run was 7 last season which ended with the 0-4 drubbing at Coventry-however the next 3 games we beat WBA 2-1 at home lost 0-3 at Plymouth( I went! ) and then beat Liverpool in the Cup</font></p>

    <font size="2">Interestingly ? well i think so anyway!-his best 10 game run is 19 this season which began with the 4-1 thrashing of Donny and ended with the 3-2 win over Burnley at Oakwell</font></p>

    <font size="2">all it really shows is that we are consistently inconsistent </font>

    Even fully fit we struggle to put out a balanced and complete side

    as we have no natural left back and only one natural left winger who doesn't even make the side when we are down to the bare bones
