Good evening.
All this weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth is all well and good cathartic but how do we and indeed will we take steps to …get a new plan, Stan? My fear is that Citizen Redschnapps is mentally in Hitler’s bunker right now.
The pity me routine has worn thin/been exhausted with the fans because the bulk of us aren’t mentally retarded. The squad isn’t awful. Sure, it’s serving up relatively awful performances, but then if you give a chimpanzee the finest ingredients known to mankind and the best kitchen to cook in, the odds are you will be chowing down on a takeaway while vets try to save the ape.
There is talk from our tight lipped supremo of winning as many of our remaining games as possible. Commendable stuff. If of course, your motor neurons fire at the same speed as a marble rolling through a tray of thickened paint.
The crucial element absent from this Lollypop Land equation is a wee thing called form. So let’s swerve naivety and not just look at our own, shall we? Ought we dare?
We face [in chronological order] QPR, Blackburn, Bolton, Villa, Fulham. Villa and Blackburn and Bolton lurk like bottom feeders, nestled in the drop zone. Blackburn’s current form reflects their season. It’s ‘roadkill’ and they are going down with t’Wolves.
Bolton’s form quite possibly guided by the hand of a higher being of course, appears to be resurgent. Better than Sunderland, than Norwich, than West Bromwich Albion.
Then onto the wounded animals.
QPR is at Loftus Road, the venue of 3 wins from their last 6. Away, they suck badly. This is a piece of professional analytical terminology I do not expect all of you to be savvy with.
Fulham could be a another skin de banane. Fancy Big Martin Jol not wanting to ruin our Champions League Parade, at The Lane?
Please, let me be your bookie.
I won’t predict the scorelines of our remaining fixtures as in our current form it’s impossible\unthinkable to.
With Wigan beating Woolwich tonight, and with Woolwich still to go away to Stoke and play Cheatski at home, as well as Cheatski vs the Geordies and the Geordies vs Citeh there are still plenty of points for oyr rivals to drop.
Regain any sort of decent form and we get 4th. Win 4\5 of our games and 3rd is still a possibility.
COYS
SEEMS INCREDIBLE WHEN YOU THINK OF HOW FEW POINTS WE HAVE PICKED UP IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS.
“If of course, your motor neurons fire at the same speed as a marble rolling through a tray of thickened paint”
…..Classic, just thought it was worth mentioning again…
Stuck on a train with signalling problems – wetter than the Thames, between Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast (Sunshine Coast it isnt this morning!!). Needed cheering up after this last few weeks. Ta HH…
Will any of our sick note boys be back again
this season?
What in the name of twisted Jerusalem are you suggesting, man :freu
Anderton could be back for the final game.
I’m fed up with the same old faces…A fit Dawson and Hudd would have given us something. J**** must be due his one game in a hundred. Even the skip kicker could come up with his one season wonder goal to give us a shot in the arm….
Signed..desperate of Norfolk.
Get yourself down to Mary Jane’s in Cromer for a slap up, take the sting out of things!
Or frencies at Wells next the sea fish N chips on the Quay at Wells roll on July I ll be there

Games with QPR, Blackburn & Bolton will be real tests of character and to be honest, have not seen much of that in the past 2 months.
Is it asking too much that for 5 games, they sort themselves out and play with heart and passion ?
Head says one thing says heart says…. the SAME – NO !!! I fear now the players will want to blame the england mnager / Arry (Ooops same thing) and Harry will want to blame payers for current situation – wont help us I fear…

Thank God we do not have to play Wigan.
