Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 The so called 'Sea of blue' campaign attracted just over 19,000 for our first home game, no points from six, no goals - are we heading for a downfall on the scale of our good Tree friends, or is this just a ludicrous post too early in the season? We all know what misery a dire start to the season can bring, although we've rarely been a keen starter

We all know what misery a dire start to the season can bring, although we've rarely been a keen starter I'd say it's worse than Forest. If we go down this season it is the end of LCFC or will be close to the end.

Wils Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 I dont think were going to go down but we will struggle again. There seems to be no improvment on last season
Fez of Mahrez Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 One thing's for sure. We wouldn't get anywhere near the attendances they've been getting in League One.
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 9 August 2006 Author Posted 9 August 2006 Totally agree with everyone so far, my cautious optimism may I fear let me down again. I'd take finishing 16th again, can't believe it...
davieG Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 One thing's for sure. We wouldn't get anywhere near the attendances they've been getting in League One. As we can't afford the payments on the stadium whilst in the Championship I doubt we'd have one to actually play in. A swap with the Tigers isn't even an option as we couldn't afford it. We could share with Hinckley though.

Nelson Mandela Park, is usually empty, and with the poultry support were gonna have should be big enough....plus it's got a good ring to it!!!!!

Thracian Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 That's the big point really. It's not a ludicrous post. It may be early in the season but the shortcomings have been apparent for ages and they're not going to mend if Kelly doesn't think differently and there's no guarantee of that. Even when surgery is done there may still be fine tuning problems. Becoming attack minded won't be magic want waving. Many clubs are at that stage already and we're playing catch-up. Then there's confidence. The people who've played will be low and if reports about the O'Grady situation are true there'll be discontent off the field as well. There's a serious crisis looming at the club and it needs dealing with before it turns into a disaster.
davieG Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 Nelson Mandela Park, is usually empty, and with the poultry support were gonna have should be big enough....plus it's got a good ring to it!!!!! Is that because of the headless chicken that is Tiatto Or because we are have to survive on chicked feed? Sorry I couldn't resist that paltry response.
davieG Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 I just... I can't do it... I did, hangs his head in shame

Sorry I couldn't resist that paltry response. I'm glad I've added abit of entertainment for you lads....more then what can be said of our team!!!!
Daggers Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 Sorry I couldn't resist that paltry response. What a great topeck
NFFC Chris Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 You remind me of us two seasons ago actually,Kelly saved you from relegation last season like Kinnear saved us but it just papered over the cracks,then in the summer just like you we made very few signings and due to Joe Kinnear's terrible management we went down.I can see you struggling this season,with you possibly going down
Knighton Matt Posted 9 August 2006 Posted 9 August 2006 with the poultry support I just... I can't do it... ??

At the moment, despite the table, it's not a serious possibility. There are too many poorer teams in this league.

There are too many poorer teams in this league. I've been on this forum for about 15 months now I think and that is definitely the most stupid thing I've ever seen posted on here. EDIT: 17 months today!

davieG Posted 10 August 2006 Posted 10 August 2006 I've been on this forum for about 15 months now I think and that is definitely the most stupid thing I've ever seen posted on here. Well whether it's the most stupid I can't say becuase there have been some beauties, I've probably posted some myself but you certainly don't have to have the poorest players to get relegated and if there's a poorer 'team' in this division I'd be amazed.

I couldn't decide which was more stupid, that comment or the one about our fans. As if Forest's fans are somehow to blame for their relegation, despite turning out in massive numbers.

Ultra Posted 10 August 2006 Posted 10 August 2006 The table doesnt lie ...... Indeed not. I believe the figure of games played stands at TWO. Maybe I'm being old-fashioned, but I thought the final positions were decided after FORTY-SIX games had been played...

Well be amazed. You obviously haven't seen Colchester, Barnsley or QPR play. I confidently predict here and now we will finish at least ten points ahead of any of those teams. Now stop the scaremongering!
