Elliottman Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 If we dont sign a centre half in January and I cancel my direct debit because of it, would I be considered a c***? Direct Debit for what? A ST? Yeah, i should have stated Nah not at all. ST sales will be down next year if we struggle still. For the last Month or so I've been very much of the opinion of 'if they wont invest then why should I?' In reality I never really felt that I would have went through with it, but after the last two games, if they dont invest in the back four, then I'm going to cancel my season ticket. It will break my heart if I have to do it. How long you been a ST holder? Hmm I'm 28, so 8 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posts like these are probably the only kind that would wake Ashley from his hypnotic-trance of counting his money. It's the only kind that will register in his vision. We'll probably invest in January. Then come summer, he'll sell us down the river again until such posts re-appear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its exactly how I feel but there has to come a point where you cant keep being taken for a mug. Its got nothing to do with the team, I can put up with us being shit. I cant put up with us willingling not spending money when its available. Like I say, why should I invest when the owner wont? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pata Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 3. We're playing much better going forward and Im confident the results will come soon. 2-3. These last 2 games have shown we can score goals. It was heartbreaking end today but who would've thought we can score six goals at OT and Emirates and probably deserved something out of the both games?

Skirge Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Think we will finish 10th or maybe as high as 8th IF we make the right signings if not then probs around 15th Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 about 60% of me thinks we can finish mid table- 40% thinks we can go down- if this makes any sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I'm still not too concerned, but a good transfer window is absolutely essential - if we go into Feb with a net gain of no players we could be in real trouble, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Any team who gifts goals to the opposition as often as we do through individual errors will always struggle to win games. We simply can't rely on the strikers to score 2 or 3 every game to compensate for the shocking defending in each game. The first 4 goals tonight all boiled down to poor, poor individual play and it's not feasible. Scoring 3 is no fucking good if you're conceding 4 or 5. We're in deep shit.

Karjala Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Worst defence i can remember us having (i know we have had bad defenders), and likely to lose the guy that has scored half our PL goals. Good bet at 11/1 i would say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Ben Arfa Ba Cisse Tiote Cabaye Marveaux Coloccini Krul Santon Taylor Anita Look at those players man, our best crop there, not including cracking youngsters like Bigi. How the fuck are we even talking about relegation? We've had injuries but most of those are still playing and those that aren't were playing for at least half the games we've played this season. I hope we sort this out soon man, because I can see us losing a lot on that list in the next 8 months if we dont. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 On our day we can beat almost any team in this league, it just hasn't happened often enough. We're comparing these to 08-09 but we only won 2 from January to May - that won't happen again. Of course we're not getting relegated but yes, our drop from last season is a big concern. This isn't sticking my head in the sand either, it's just common sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GM Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I'm more concerned about these recent murmurs about a split in the dressing room. We've seen to our cost in very recent times what that can mean for team performance...so I really hope that's just either at best a load of nonsense or at worst just a storm in a teacup. We've clearly got defensive nightmares to face up to, but the biggest threat to us in terms of relegation may well yet be an unhappy and divided team? Just a thought. Hopefully my fears are unfounded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
