With our favourites Preston up next, I am more worried about what's below us than above. And by the same token a couple of good results will see us in the playoffs. It’s a tight league where there’s actually very little gap in quality between the majority of sides. We’ve a mid table squad and we’re in mid table. I really don’t get the hyperbole.

With our favourites Preston up next, I am more worried about what's below us than above. And a couple of good results could see us in the play off picture again. Our results so far this season show wins are just as likely as defeats.

Bazooka Joe Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 5 minutes ago, intercity said: Bazooka, I was thinking strikers or more specifically Fammy. His clumsiness has a negative effect all on our play in general I fear and Id like to see Weiman and Taylor given a chance - Fammy can still come on but later, much later. Don't rate Fammy - nd based on what I've seen, doubt I ever will. Too slow, too weak, not aggressive enough - and yeah clumsy. We've played better without him.

At the same time, I don't think we've got anywhere near the performance levels of early last season at all which is slightly worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I realise that, but with some big clubs below us I fear were going to get sucked into the basement battle. Hope it doesn't happen just my take on it.

Hope it doesn't happen just my take on it. I get that the form isn’t good. I just don’t think we’re good enough to be troubling the top six or bad enough to be worried about the bottom three. I think we’ll end up broadly where we are now give or take a few places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redrascal2 Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 I am worried because Johnson still does not know his best team. Constant chopping and changing week in week out is doing us no favours. Might be old fashioned but a settled team always seems to work better for obvious reasons.

We’ve won as many games as we’ve lost. Everything about us screams mid table. It’s likely going to continue in the same vein all year. Are we going to get these sort of threads after every defeat?

intercity Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 41 minutes ago, Glarster Red said: Are these threads serious or just a wind up? We created 21 chances to Readings 8... Yes we’re probably missing a top striker to put those chances away but I’d rather stay on the lookout for that striker than get a manager in that puts everyone behind the ball home and away and looks to pinch a one nil win every game.Someones going to get hammered buy us some time soon. Good post. Last two games we've had the lions share of the play and been undone by a keeper on fire last week and a team that score 3 goals from 3 chances today. I see us as more solid this season, but we havent got the firepower right now. How many goals 17/18 cames from Flint, Brian and Reid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screech Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 At the moment I am praying Mo Eisa will be the find of the decade because our front line is woeful. Diedhiou this season is performing like he has entered and won a competition to be a footballer, Taylor and Weimann for all their energy are secondary strikers. We play nice football at times but without a threat up front we are so easy to manage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fpcity Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 I'm not worried about getting relegated, what I am worried about is all the money that has been wasted on players and he still can't get a starting 11 right with sticking to a 4-4-2, players out of position and generally not playing well. Is he a good motivator? Do players respect him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had a look at our site it seems your man Lee goes missing when we lose and DH is the man to face the music. Prep for when DH and JM takeover sometime in the future no doubt.

Not bad enough too go down.....?? I guess that's the same as too good & history is littered with them. The concern I think for many is that Lee hits the epic 'bad spell trail again-but without the currency/safety net that last season we had at our disposal...
