TRon Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Bookies now think it's us who will go, along with West Brom and Sheff Utd. Fulham have lengthened to 4th favourites. Can't argue with that at all. Brucey's media chums will put it down to the players and injuries. Bruce is a proven manager because he's been in the game for 23 years ffs #lukebaldy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collage Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Hate the term ‘sleepwalking to relegation’. We’re full on sprinting in its direction. Think it’s a great term when describing the lack of action from Ashley/Charnley. I.e not sacking Bruce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 We're scraping away a 0-0 draw against the 2nd bottom club whilst the 3rd bottom is fighting tooth and nail for a 1-0 win against the reigning champions (albeit a shadow of the team that won the league). That's all you need to know. Bruce still thinks he can draw his way to safety while the rest at the bottom are trying to pick up as many points as possible. I can see the next however many weeks without our front 3 spent sitting back and defending for our lives hoping to finish every game 0-0 and eit will invariably backfire.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Problem is we seem like we’ll definitely dip below one win in 4, which means we’re relying on much more regular draws. Going to be very difficult. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 It's utterly shocking management from the club. To just sit there and do absolutely nothing as we plummet down the table is criminal like. Any other club would have acted. Not us though. Mark Douglas hit the nail on the head with this tweet... They seem to purposely do the opposite to what everyone wants as if to say "no one tells us what to do" even though its blatantly obvious they're wrong. Totally shocking. From what I've been told, there's just incompetency all over, from top to bottom. No desire to be better and a strong ethos of promoting from within - you're more likely to progress because of long service rather than achievement. One example I'd heard (although I don't know how true it is) was someone moving from the catering team to marketing department for this very reason Sadly - and again only from what I've been told - the focus on loyalty/long service means Charnley is actually well-liked by a lot of people.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Is the club basically just Charnley with the odd phone call to Ashley? Not exactly packed with expertise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Is the club basically just Charnley with the odd phone call to Ashley? Not exactly packed with expertise. I can't remember her name or find the article the Chronicle wrote, but there was a woman brought in a while back who was basically going to be Charnley's number two and have some involvement in the day-to-day running of the club. She's gone (nowt was ever said) so I guess so! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armchair Pundit Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 We gone Hard to see where the points would come from there, not with Bruce as head coach and the other teams around us turning things around. Brighton might be our only hope if they continue their slip, but the way things are going I wouldn't be surprised if WBA sneak past us as well as Fulham.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 That block of 4 impossible games looks damning. We basically have 5 games to pick up points, then the two at the very end. One of which is Fulham fighting for their lives. Dodgy. Edit: that said, 7 points from the other 7 games would be 34, which might be enough. Problem is Fulham look like they’ll win a couple.

Abra Dubravka Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Fulham will be safe come final day.

Robster Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 The PL must be loving this. Not only have they blocked us from possibly imposing ourselves on the 'Big 6', they are sitting watching us drop out of the league altogether. Cigars must be out in the PL offices. String it out for a couple more months and their troubles will be over. Thanks Mike. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
