A tiny masochistic part of me wants a draw away at Luton just to see how that goes.

I Know It’s Over

There is a number of things going against us at the minute partly self inflicted and partly other teams scraping wins in the last minute which makes our predicament look a lot worse.
Neither Arsenal or Liverpool are convincing and they will drop a significant amount of points between now and the end of the season. Now is a good time to have a blip if you have to and if we sort our act out i have no doubt we will be there or thereabouts come May.
I think City will win the league again this year personally.

The usual suspects are out in force on here after last night. They seem to thrive on us losing. Hardly ever see them when we win.Exactly, nobody's going to be happy with our recent run of results but the overreaction is ridiculous. What next on the Match Thread, an outbreak of Dancing Plague??

Honestly, jesus do u never learn?It’s so easy to laugh, it’s so easy to hate…
Time to focus on the chumps league?
We've just played Arsenal (A) Brighton (H) rags (A) Bournemouth (H) Chelsea (A) Liverpool (H) Spurs (H) and Villa (A)
6 behind after that lot isn't bad.
Let's see what the league looks like after playing the next 8
Luton (A) Palace (H) Everton (A) Sheff Utd (H) Newcastle (A) Burnley (H) Brentford (A) & Everton
Miles away from the flapping stage.

If we have a poor run of results against that lot, then it's time to start being concerned because our Champions League qualification position would be under threat.
They have a point though and reality tells us so far this season we aren’t as good as last season or the season before or the season before that . Pretty simple really .The usual suspects are out in force on here after last night. They seem to thrive on us losing. Hardly ever see them when we win.

seems in some people's eyes you cant come on here and criticise the team after being taken apart by aston villa.They have a point though and reality tells us so far this season we aren’t as good as last season or the season before or the season before that . Pretty simple really .
I want to batter the twats still feel the pain of David Pleat and relegation.A tiny masochistic part of me wants a draw away at Luton just to see how that goes.
Remember last season? No. It's not over.
I’m not too worried tbh, yes the results aren’t what we expect and we should’ve won at least 2 of our draws but it is what it is. Each year we all panic and everyone creates headlines about us but there’s still so many points left to play for with so many games, a few bad results doesn’t eliminate us for any race.
Our rivals must be worried because they know it's not over.

And giving up on the league in December? Don't these people remember some of our league titles, won from seemingly lost causes?seems in some people's eyes you cant come on here and criticise the team after being taken apart by aston villa.
A. Constructive criticism is fine. It's to be encouraged, actually. Healthy debate. It's the knee jerk stuff that annoys me. But hey; some would say that's just FOC-itis kicking in.
B. The same folk who are hoisting the white flag, you hardly ever see them when we win. Strange.

Considering the season as over when you're 6 points back in December is moronic.

Lets just wind forward to the end of the season and we can see who is right, like I do on the end of season video.

Wasn't sure if a new thread was needed, or whether this is a relevant enough thread to post in, but...
I might be overthinking it, but our downturn in form seems to have come immediately after Everton's points deduction. I just wonder whether the players have got wind of something, and realise that we may actually be getting absolutely f**ked by the PL - and are losing interest in playing for us, knowing we'll be in the National League North in 18 months time!
Or, it might just be hugely distracting/uncertain for them.
Either way, I don't think it is helping and think we should be trying to get the whole thing resolved ASAP for the good of the club.
(I know some people will say we actually kicked on last season after the 115 charges were brought against us - but this is a new season)

Spot on. I haven't accepted it's over. Will it be difficult to win it from here? Yes; of course it will. Stevie Wonder can see that. But impossible? No. We need to go on one of those runs that we're more than capable of. Something like, say, 10 - 12 wins on the spin. Put pressure on Arsenal and Liverpool. Let's see where we are when the clocks change in march.There are things to criticise.

This isn’t over by a long way. If we’re within 6 pts come February, it’s game on

Tbf, we should be beating them.Some bloke after the game on the way out told me we should be beating the likes of Villa cos there are shit
Probably seen a league table before or after the game
Or watched the match either
It's just not catastrophe if we don't. Calling them shit is nonsense though.
