alpine_saint Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Plymouth winning, couple of minutes left, puts us bottom Ouch Get used to it, dude..
badgerx16 Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 I make it we will go up 5 places when we win tomorrow.
Mr X Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 yep plymouth won! we are officially bottom of the league look on the bright side "the only way is up" now literally
Saint in Paradise Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Surely all of you trust Mr Lowe, he is never wrong ??? Yea Rite
whizzpop Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Can't believe i'm starting to look at results around us after 5 games. Not a good start, worse than last year already.
JustMike Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Can't believe i'm starting to look at results around us after 5 games. Not a good start, worse than last year already. yes doesnt bode well when we play a very good Ipswich side tomorrow either
rocknrollman no2 Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Can we have Wigley back please? LOL!! The way things are going i wouldnt rule out Branfoot.
Mr X Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 When you think about it logically how was it ever going to work Inexperienced manager(in this country) + In-experienced youngsters = in-experience all round Which ever way you look at it it's one hell of a gamble, I'm not saying it's not going to come good, but the signs don't look great
Thedelldays Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 LOL.... bottom of the league and people prefer this shiiiiite.. :smt048

Just a thought.

Just a thought. last years team is of no comparison.. if you cant expect any team in this league to win their home games then you are in serious shiiite... as people keep claiming, this league is fair and exciting and therefore, hoping for away wins and expecting home wins is not too much to ask for.. after all, bristol city got to the playoff final with pretty much a team that could not even win league 1.. did anyone rate HULL when we thrashed them 4-0...?
um pahars Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 We do have a home game in hand though. Wrist slitting really should commence about this time tomorrow if we lose.
ottery st mary Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Just hope and pray to him up there, we win tomorrow and Saturday otherwise we may be cut adrift. The Dutch set up may be good and may one day work but should have been put in place alongside running a CCC side by a reasonable British coach like Pearson whilst the 20 Dutch coaches had there time to produce their total football through the ranks from bottom to the top. Off to church for more prayers as we ain't no Ajax set up.
John B Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 "Well, that's another fine mess you've gotten me into Rupert" Who would be a football charman with a fan like you. You are supposed to support the team in times of trouble. We have 41 games to go
exit2 Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 To be fair - and it's not my job to defend Lowe - if in August you had been shown these fixtures: Cardiff away Birmingham home Derby away Blackpool home QPR away Home many of those games would you have expected: last year's team to win a new team to win? Just a thought. Last Years Results Cardiff Away - Lost 1-0 Birmingham home - didnt play (Would say would have lost) Derby away - didnt play (but would say we would have won) Blackpool home - Won 1 - 0 QPR away - Won 3 - 0 9 points summised 6 points actual
Um Bongo Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Reading only had 18,000 there tonight. Not much better then us. Sheffield Wednesday look ****e.

Amesbury Saint Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 pretty depressing reading, the table. I wonder what our hero Scooby has to say?
NickG Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 still think of poor Man U, in relegation zone but for goal difference -relelgation is going to hit them hard financially. Maybe the leagues will change a bit by end of season, hopefully for us.

Just a thought. last year we beat qpr away and blackpool home 3 more points last season and with only 3 of the above teams

But if you were a Stoke fan today and you had played: Chelsea home Liverpool away Villa away Arsenal away Spurs home And got 3 points, isn't that the equivalent?? If we'd lost to Palace, Barnsley, Ipswich, Coventry and Swansea home or away, I would be seriously worried, but we have lost to three promotion favourites and one shocking loss to Blackpool - only Blackpool worries me.
saintwarwick Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 yes doesnt bode well when we play a very good Ipswich side tomorrow either We will go level on points with them when we win tomorrow.

"watching saints is like a breath of fresh air etc"... I only want us to win and could not care less how we do it...about time some of you woke up to that is that is what is needed...
Legod Second Coming Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Legod you are the one who usually says "anyone can beat anyone in this league". Birmingham were the only decent side out of them IMO. I agree but we have only been beaten by one poor team - Blackpool - that's what I was getting at. Our young unproven team has been turned over by three good teams and one poor one. That's not a reason for panic. Being beaten by poor teams is a reason for panic!!!!! And I hope after tomorrow we can worry less... of course!!!

We have played three good teams and two bad ones. What has everyone else played??

gjphilsaint Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 wheres that thread abot how many points you would be happy with that was posted after the Derby game? Does anyone have a link would make interesting reading?
Rocker268 Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Even though its a poor start to the season it COULD be worse and so far the signs have been promising, if we can start scoring half the chances we create it will start ooking up again Keep the Faith its only a little way into the season anything can happen!!!!

And I hope after tomorrow we can worry less... of course!!! I don't think Cardiff were that good, Derby certainly wont be anywhere near the promotion spots and I didn't think QPR were great. We have played one good team IMO. It will be interesting to see how they respond tomorrow and Saturday.

Legod Second Coming Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Cut adrift... sure, already the gap between us and safety with a game in hand must be what 10 points, 20, 30... feck me.
gjphilsaint Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 You have deliberately or ignorantly missed the point. If Cardiff have played us at home, Barnsley and Plymouth away and Palace at home - for argument's sake - do you not expect that they will have more points than us?? We have played three good teams and two bad ones. What has everyone else played?? barnsley have played an almost identical set of teams to us
Thedelldays Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 Cut adrift... sure, already the gap between us and safety with a game in hand must be what 10 points, 20, 30... feck me. lol...keep your head buried mate...it took you a while to realise burley was cack and it will take you a while to see we are going to be in real trouble this year.. worst goal difference already bar forest....that is a stat alone that will ensure we remain in trouble..
Delmary Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 In all honesty we'll probably win tomorrow night and this thread will be cast to the bins of yesterday. I live in hope.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 but in not a stoke fan and I wont cherry pick fixtures like you have.. i am a saints fan and what I see is ******... we are in danger, serious danger of being cut adrift, we already have the worst goal difference in the bottom half bar forest...we are already bottom.. people can dress it up as much as possible with comments like.. "watching saints is like a breath of fresh air etc"... I only want us to win and could not care less how we do it...about time some of you woke up to that is that is what is needed... Absolutlely right. I am fed with hearing this "we played well" crap its points we need. Playingpretty football for some of the game is worth sweet FA after you get beat.
ottery st mary Posted 16 September, 2008 Posted 16 September, 2008 so what you are saying is we need to win games??! Nick please pass the request on to Lowey and Wildey. A win against Ipswich for starters and another against Barnsley.. Keep the faith. PS Get some more Dutch Coaches in we need more help.

Gemmel Posted 16 September, 2008 Author Posted 16 September, 2008 We do have a home game in hand though. Wrist slitting really should commence about this time tomorrow if we lose. Agreed. It's Just what i saw pre - season I didn't think we would be here (Naieve maybe). A win tomorrow and we'll be ok
