Forget the play offs mate, we're not strong enough for that. It would take a completely disastrous run of games for us to go down which I can't see happening hence why I think it's a mid table write off with a view to more activity in the summer. Yes. I get what you say - I just don't consider it a write-off of we stay where we are. It seems such a negative term when it would actually, all told, be a decent achievement. I know it's only semantics........ It would be a decent achievement pre season yet but having got ourselves in a position where we could have made a few small investments to try and push us into the playoffs, we have instead decided to get rid of about 10 players and replace them with 2 loanees and 1 signing. So it is negative yet for that reason. It is just a frustration at what I see as a potential missed opportunity.

Thats pretty much where I am GGMI, happy with this position when the season started but having seen the teams in it there is nobody particularly great. Then again it would be an opportunity for what, championship football? having to spend beyond our means to have a slim chance of survival and come back down in a worse position?

Yes, we sound like we are on the same wave length.

I personally am not worried regarding the playing side of things, we should stay up comfortably and a midway finish is what most of us expected. I'm more worried that it seems the UWE isnt going to happen after that radio interview yesterday. I didn't hear it myself only what I've read on here.

Has anyone looked on otib? There are banners around Trashton calling the manager out and personal insults. He'll probably have his hair full of gob at the next home game.

Personal insults are taking things a bit too far!

OTIB are convinced that it's their own fans who've put the banners up. Do you have inside info?
