"Sammy McIlroy has taken us as far as he can"...

Sounds like we had a good game today, we played well at Rotherham when they were top of the league, easily beat money bags Notts County, very level against Bradford... is it really wrist cutting time?

Paul is a long time foe of Sammy....get real mate!

I agree CC, but didn't you say something similar not too long ago???

Have a look at the league table !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

21st looks bad but we are only 3 points of being 12th

But to get them 3 points we have to win a game !!!!!! and on that second half performance doesnt look like happening

have a look at who we've played. Reallistically, after the last five matches do you think we should have done better. We've had a good run recently against some very difficult teams.

It doesnt matter how you try to gloss it over we are 21st in the league with 1 win in 11 games, 3 points off the bottom 2 places

I'm not glossing over anything. We should have started the season better.

We didn't. However, we've improve dramatically since then and it's unfortunate it coincided with some very tough games. Keep playing like we are and we'll be climbing the table when we start having more winnable games.

Again, do you think we should have got more points against the title contenders we've been playing recently?

I also believe that we will climb the table in the coming weeks and will be reminding those moaners and complainers when we do, I've never read so much drivel on here for a long time, how they have the nerve to call themselves supporters is beyond me

It doesn't matter how you try to matt it over, we are 3 points off twelfth, we've only lost 2 games (nobody in the league betters that), we're unbeaten at home, we're, in part, playing some of the best football I've seen at Christie Park for years, we've just gone unbeaten against Chesterfield, Rotherham and Dagenham away and Rochdale, Notts County and Shrewsbury at home - even the most optimistic supporters couldn't see an unbeaten run through that. We'll start moving up the table soon enough, have faith and support the team. We'll do OK.

Noones glossing anything over, your just being Pessimistic Pete!!
If were still 21st after another 5-10 games then you can worry....but its still not in the relelgation zone

on the forum

We started badly - theres no denying that but recently, we've picked up points away at Daggers, Rotherham and Chesterfield as well as at home to Notts county, Bradford, Rochdale and Shrewsbury. You couldn't realistically ask for that much more considering the opposition. When we've played some poor teams at home and still can't win matches, I'll start to worry as well but I've been pleased with the teams performance recently.

Answer for everything havnt you !!!!!!!!!!!! be a bit of a pisser if those 2 dropped points come back to haunt us at the end of the season wont it, but i suppose you'll have an answer then

my last post was intended for campdave by the way

we cant worry about 2 points lost. im sure there'll be a game where it works the other way around and we get 3 points when we didnt deserve it

it may make the difference at the end of the season but theres nothing anyone can do about it now. just got to move on and hope it doesnt happen again.

as for campdave having an answer for everything, its probably because your determined to moan about each little thing whilst refusing to look at the big picture

if two points are the difference it'll be because we haven't been good enough over the season, not a decision or result of one match.

As for an "answer for everything", I don't see why I shouldn't be able to give my point of view, whether or not you agree with it.

Of course it does, as it should. Just your last comment made it sound like you were basically calling me a smartarse.
