PEARCEYRoyalBluePEARCEY Come off it Royal Blue. I am not an RTG but to say we may well be dragged into a relegation battle is pathetic.
See my edited version for an explanation. It may not happen but you can't deny that home losses added to a dismal away record would equate to relegation form.
And don't forget, we have part two of the sale of the century to look forward to in January. Lets hope Poundstretchers still have some replacements left in stock!
We are still 4th in the table.....with the best home record in the entire country...this is STG spin of the highest order. By all means accentuate the negative and worst case scenario but its being overly pessimistic in my view.
Our away form will certainly prevent us from finishing in the top two but as we can both see that despite it we remain firmly entrenched in the play offs...

Pablo We need a creative central midfielder how can also score goals. How many goals have Karacan, Harper, Cisse, Gunnarsson and Matejovsky scored this season?

Gordons Cumming The swing from positive to negative on HNA is truly a wonder to behold.
One minute we're gonna hit 107 points the next we're going to be relegated.
Good grief.

Henleyensian There are about 18000 to 20000 people at most home games and about 200-300 at away games. I don't know how many of the approx 18000 people who do not go to away games make comments on here but I will tell you now that, as somebody who goes to away games ,I am sick of being called an RTG (as if that were something to be ashamed of) and called idiotic for being an optimist.
It is obvious that you moaners were all at home last night instead of supporting the team. Don't tell me it is because you have to work as most who go away do so as well. The team could do with support away from home but maybe it is just as well that you critics and moaners don't as he few who do go actually support them. You don't hear boos from impatient "supporters" at away games.
Last night was as those of you who quote the radio have said. It is no coincidence that the "Man of the Match" was the Burnley goalkeeper and if you had been there you would have seen how hard the team worked and how frustrated they must have been to come away with nothing. Even a Burley fan rang in to the radio to say that we had hammered them and were very unlucky to come away with nothing.
Please stop trying to find scapegoats and be positive in your support. It is what the team needs and deserves.

braindead I have to say I am surprised at the negativity on here. I appreciate that a lot of you are used to Premiership football, but the Championship is a tough league, and in order to triumph you need to mix guile with skill and strength.
From what I have seen of you (Albeit only two games) you have the above in spades, and two bad results do not a bad team make. before long you will pick up wins on the road, and your home record is excellent, so I definitely think you will finish top 6, and when (not if) Wolves falter you may be in with a shout of automatic promotion.
Some of us poor Championship relations would love to have your players in our team.
Also would you mind recalling Lita from Norwich - we have them on Saturday

winchester_royal This is the match where cisse has to step up, personally I believe he has the attributes to really dominate a midfield, but he hasn't done it yet.
by The whole year inn » 02 Nov 2008 01:35
winchester_royal Well worth going with a 5-man midfield.
Kebe
Marek
Harps
Cisse
SHunt
winchester_royal Harps and Marek on saturday please SSC.
