Permutation’s for Saturday.
Re: Permutation’s for Saturday.
You reckon Newport will lose to Oldham? They've lost their last three games - one against us. They've run out of legs - their manager said that!
Re: Permutation’s for Saturday.
If/when we do go down I hope we go down with a fight but I'm not holding my breath on that either.
Re: Permutation’s for Saturday.
The players have got to make it happen themselves and no mindset of relying on other results. The supporters will back them if they give their all, no hiding place out on the pitch and no place for shirkers.
Tranmere are all but safe now, Cambridge will have the jitters after loosing tonight. The players have two games to put some professional pride into it, one last hurrah away and then one last hurrah at home against Newport County.

Having slow players sprint back 60 yards towards their own goal, by playing them in a high line.
Mindlessly diving into challenges, when they've, more or less, been outlawed.
This is how you accumulate high levels of injuries and suspension.
See: Canavan, Foley, MJ, Smith being out, on and off, all season.

Walsall was the must win game to give ourselves a chance. It’s as good as over.

Re: Permutation’s for Saturday.
Tranmere winning last night was an absolute disaster; they were the team to keep us alive (in theory) going to the last day looking at both our fixtures this Saturday
Newport will beat Oldham on Saturday won’t they, and that will finally be that after a long slow and very very painful death

Re: Permutation’s for Saturday.
If we are going down I prefer to go down at Cambridge and not at home to Newport.
Re: Permutation’s for Saturday.
Think we will get thumped.
Let's hope we have a photo of this rabble hung in the club and a sign this is what failure looks like.

Re: Permutation’s for Saturday.
I was never naive enough to think that we'd remain at this level given the need for investment to drive us forward long term, and relegation is easier to accept when you know you're just not good enough because you don't have the resources to bring the required quality in.
The frustration is that this is/was completely avoidable. If the club had an ounce of strategy or stability in the way we recruit players and coaches then wouldn't be in this mess. I keep saying this but Accrington are the living proof of this. The bottom five is so poor this season, you don't even need to be semi decent to stay clear of it.

Barrow has been a breeding ground for Charlatans .
We lacked a jouneyman Manager.
John Coleman would have been a fit to keep us up.
We've diced with relegation but not this time..

It all cycles back to the two decisions made by the owners. One appointment and one termination. Both poorly handled (from the perspective of what we are allowed to know).
