ZiderEyed Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 We've got coming up: - Cardiff (h) - Ipswich (a) - Swansea (h) - West Brom (a) - Leicester (a) Two games at home against Welsh rivals and 3 away games against teams in the Top 6. Doesn't look good does it? I've been careful not to knock LM too much but the ridiculous selection of clearly unfit Pring, really weird gameplan that didn't work at all and wasn't changed, and the weak interviews full of sly digs at the players feels like we're back in the LJ era. I could forgive him if it felt like there was something nestled away in there that looked like a tactical plan that just isn't clicking as yet, waiting to bloom into magnificent fruition, but that shit served up today was his fault, the wingbacks didn't work, and he didn't change it. When do we get to the point where we start to wonder if he's the boy for the job? **** knows I don't want to sit through that again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lose both the upcoming games against Cardiff and Swansea and this forum will go into meltdown! By the end of March we could be in that dreadful situation of hoping that we will get just about enough points to avoid relegation and that there are 3 worse teams in this division. Given our recent results against teams near the bottom, I really wouldn’t fancy us in a relegation scrap with Manning in charge. “Mr Motivator” he is not!

Ska Junkie Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 (edited) A table full of reds went through the rest of the season with 1 gashead over a few tonight. The predicted added points was between 10 and 17, the gashead predicted us getting 17. Due to family stuff, my beloved dad, I came close to non renewal this season. As dad is now, and the absolute crap we are playing, I'll spend more time with my old man next season and not renew. TBH, I wouldn't have renewed if we were red hot as family has to come first ( dad has rapid onset mixed dementia) but the current lack of form makes my choice easier. IPTV is the best I can do for a while,so my opinion won't count afaic as I won't be at games for a good while. Still be an avid reader tho. U REDS.

I wonder if the tv deal will affect season tickets too. Thoughts with you mate and your family stuff.

luke_bristol Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 I think 4-6 points. Still don’t think we’re in any serious danger of relegation, but only because of points already on the board. I’m more interested in seeing some progress and something to give me some hope for next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1960maaan Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 With the poor performances and not just dropping points, but hitting confidence . I don't see more than 3 points , and those good performances against good teams may just be a thing of the past. Can't see us getting anything at Ipswich or WBA ( maybe a point?) and Leicester at home a draw will be a good result. With the mood around the fans, the Manager Coach looking and sounding lost and the players looking directionless , it could be a long run in to the end of the season.
