Is it bollocks too late, it's not like we're 15 points adrift is it?

Well based on the first half of the season, 3 point adrift is more then enough.

After our really tricky start to the season, we've just had our much easier catch-up games. January moves us back into really tough games again so we really needed to catch-up and get a few points headroom, which we have been unable to do.

You can very easily see us not getting a point in January.

With our luck we'll probably get Clattenburg for this one....

If Wolves can get a point at Arse, then three points here shouldnt be to much trouble.
There are far too many Rose Tinted Glasses around for my liking,
When the manager publicly blames the players week after week (the players he has picked), then alarm bells should be ringing very very loudly. (Its everyones fault but mine)

The thing that pisses me off this season is that we have no fighting spirit, teams go 1 up against us then we give up. I can't see us beating wolves because they are a average side.

Don't know really, the previous games which were deemed the biggest of the season?

Wigan Away
Stoke Home
Blackburn Away

Of course your biggest is always your next one mind

Say what you like but we are the only team in the league who has their pants pulled down and takes it from the big boys every time, absolute embarrassment. Anyway this is the Wolves thread. I don't rate them much, but see no reason why they can't come here, capitalise on the space we afford attacking teams, score first, score again quickly and play out for a comfortable win. Everyone else does! The bugger is its NYE, rather than NYD, so another night of drinking spoilt!

And we won them all so why not this one also. Looks like we win when just about everyone of us have had enough.

There's plenty you could add to that list. Norwich @ home etc.

if there was even a hint of organisation, discipline, spirit and that backs-to-the-wall mentality you need in a relegation battle then maybe we could win this one. The depressing thing is that all our relegation rivals have displayed those qualities over the last week.
Who's that coming up the hill boys,
The Wanderers are coming up the hill boys,
They all laugh at us, they all mock at us,
They all say our days are numbered,

Born to be a Wanderer, victorious are we....

Tis true. Ah well, I suppose you could say we've been desperate to be in a cup-final for ages. Now, in terms of importance, we're in twenty of em. :wink:

Bit early? Panic wasn't completely set in then I'd say.

Before it anyway

Probably right on that one.

It's more than likely that it's with the benefit of hindsight that you look at the Norwich @ home game and say it was must win.

Certainly the paucity of the first half performance sticks out in my mind, for the complete shambles we looked.

Sunderland at home was another one, where we looked a lot worse than you'd expect.

And Everton. And Villa.

It's about time the players were told to forget about league positions and relegation. One game at a time, is the only way to go. First job is to prove who actually are the "one and only Wanderers". Oh for a John McGinlay to give em a "wee push" or two.
