    We are in a mess when it comes to the league table but I'm hoping a combination of Danny and there being some poor sides just above us means we can escape and not need as many points as last year. I think we need to be out of the bottom three by the end of February. Next 8 games are vital.

    We look doomed to me, but we've got a manager I believe in, so I dunno.

    I reckon we've played well enough this season to have a lot more points than we've actually got, but we have so many players capable of making a ******** that even when we're the better team we still lose. If it's just one or two players prone to that, then it's easy, you drop 'em and sell 'em, but almost everyone in our squad will cost us a goal every now and then. When so many are doing it, you concede one or two goals each week as each player takes their turn in shitting it up. I don't know what you can do about that without overhauling the entire squad.

    Even if we get a couple more players in and Danny finds a formula that works, we might start dominating games but someone will **** things up at the back and we'll still lose.

    So yes, I think we'll probably go down, but I'll still be there urging 'em on.

    I think we will go down for sure. Hope I'm wrong tho. We have been punching above our weight for some time now. The club has never really progressed, until this year with Ben mansford. Win against charlton and Blackpool, then we will have a big chance of staying up, keep consistence.

    I haven't seen anything to suggest we will stay up. We played a lot on winnable games at home and slipped points. I hope I'm wrong and will be supporting through the season home (and some away) but i have to sadly say my vote will be on relegation. In my mind January transfer window and results will be crucial.

    I don't know, still a lot of games to be played...I don;t think we'll have to go on a run like last season. 3 or 4 wins on the bounce, will take us out of the bottom 3. Once where out am sure Danny and the team will have enough to keep us clear.....but we need wins ASAP

    I think we are a poor side at the moment but there have been some minor chinks of light in recent games. I think we'll stop up as there are equally crap sides around us (Donny, Fowls, Millwall) and the administration rule may account for another couple of teams as the season progresses. We will do well to stop up but if I don't have hope there's no point in being a fan.

    Fair assumption I'll go along with that especially as there are teams struggling to score goals as much as we are and hopefully we have got over our goals fest giveaways. So yes we'll stay up imo

    We have no chance of staying up.

    I have faith in Danny but not in the majority of these players. As well as lacking talent they also lack heart.

    On top of that, all but one of the six pointers are away.

    I honestly think we'll stay up kev.

    I honestly believe we've got quite a lot of good players and when you look at the likes of Mellis O'Grady (if he gets his confidence back) ranks Ramage Steele there's some talent there that I don't think the likes of doncaster and Yeovil just don't have.

    Also there's other good players to go with those.

    If we can get a run going we'll become hard to beat but we need to start scoring and I think we need to get striker in and if that means sending Peterson back or selling dagnall or Scotland then fine it's got to happen.

    66 points to play for.

    33 points to get us to 50 which could be enough this season.

    That's 1.5 points per game.

    or 11 wins.

    we've won 3 all season so far.

    Big ask for Danny and the team... so

    of course we'll stay up !

    Nope, not me

    Forever the optimist, until it's mathematically impossible.
