... and Charlton.
We're likely to be in the same league as Bristol Rovers? The same Bristol Rovers that were in the Conference last season? We are well and truly fecked.
Good point, Enoch. Tony, just today Rovers moved above Plymouth (who can bog off and stay down there) into the League Two automatic promotion places. A good day for Bristol.

In all seriousness, I'm worried we might be the first team to go down. We're 12 points from safety, same as Villa, more than anyone in Leagues One & Two (the latter is also harder to fall out of with only two teams going down). Guess it depends how the fixtures fall; international break next week, so by the time we play again Colchester (Div 3) might be as far behind as we are.

Could be the first relegated next year too. I can't see how we can nine back. We are truly awful. Little talent. No heart

Seems like Feeney was really carrying this side. His absence was telling today. No wonder NL said he was always the first name down on the teamsheet despite the fans criticism of him.

Feeney? My favourite player of the last 2 years. What he lacked in skill( allegedly ),he more than made up for in effort. If we,d had 11 Feeney type players,we,d have been safe in this division by Christmas !

Hmm. Seems my arrival in the UK coincided with a 6 nil drubbing. I might have to bugger off back to the desert :(

Well, that's pretty painful. It would appear that we've given up before Jiminiho's got his foot through the door and under the desk.
Pfffft.

Can we use 4 lolly sticks and a roll of electrical tape to see if we could stay up longer?

Utter, total, fecking shambles!

Didn't comment yesterday because I was so angry, the cheek of anyone to describe that shower of shite as professionals, should be shot, the lot of them.

Why, oh why, did Philips pick some of those players? Madine, an oil tanker turning space Wheater?

Anyone who is out of contract season end, the stiffs, the bell ends Madine and Davies types, hound them out.

Clear the decks NOW, cannot risk pissing about at the beginning of next season or we will start well off the pace, we need to get a good idea of what those who will remain can do.
