  • They think it's all over...they might be right !

    Antonio by Antonio . Apr 18, 2006 06:05 . Permalink

    I have just returned from our 'must win' home game against Bolton, i generally keep the faith and try to stay positive. However after that game i do believe we are down, much as it pains me to say it ! We are not good enough for the prem, worse still i think some of the players have realised this too. Whether Robson is totally to blame i'm not sure, he picked the right team tonight but then didn't play them the right way and changed it too late ! My biggest wish was that they could've (by some miracle) scored the winner in the last few minutes when half the 'supporters' had gone. Three good things about the championship: 1, easier to get tickets cos all part time fans will stay away 2, more goals hopefuly 3, 6 points off the wolves !!

      We'll see you back in 2 seasons. You'll be a bit stronger then. Perhaps your manager will use his head and grab some of the youngsters at Chelsea on loan. I'm sure we'd lend them to you and that would be a good way for you to get good players cheaply. I do think you're going down but then I thought you were last season. If you do I'll look forward to your quick return.

      That is true ..if there wasn't suh a stupid amount of cash flying round the football world then maybe players would pla for clubs they gave a shit about as opposed to wh culd pay them the most money ! Paul Robinson has apologised to the fans for the Newcastle game, well maybe the players should put ther hands in their pockets and give the ticket money back to the fans who travelled there !

      Isn't it a shame that players everywhere do not share the same compassion for the game as some of their fans, most are mercenaries that only do it for the money and don't give a #$%$ who they play for as long as the price is right.It's just a pity your players don't have the balls that you have baggie girl but no doubt they won't feel too hard done by as they move on to their next meal ticket as your team departs.

      It's alright, they'll pass you by on their way down next season!

      Got to say though, Portsmouth picked up the momentum to carry them out at the right time. It was always going to be a close run, but with Portsmouth having the easier games left, they soon became favourites to survive.

      Personally though, i really wish you and Brum could stay up with Villa and Portsmouth going down. Being a Man United fan, it's not too pretty seeing 2 old favourites down the wrong end of the table!

      Good luck with the rest of the campaign, and if, as likely you do go down. Look forward to you bouncing back up this time next season!
