Me too let’s play the lads who will be around in league 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You dont mind Hobbs but think Wheater would be a risk? I know who i think will be available to play more games this season and next based on last 10 seasons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I'd take Wheater on loan and send Wright back, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blondi Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 We would probably need about 50 points to give us a chance of staying up this season, we would need to get an average of about 2 points per game until the end of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Casino Posted January 3, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 3, 2020 Aim for 40 And we would have a great chance It's not going to be easy but good recruitment and luck with injuries and we have a chance We cobbled together a team in a day, I'm seeing how we get on with a couple of weeks to sort it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErnestTurnip Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 We'd have to get double the amount of points in the second half of the season that we've got in the first half to be anywhere near. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Casino Posted January 3, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 3, 2020 We have 18 in 15 under Hill Even repeating just 18 in the next 15 would see us still in the game 8 games to get 16 points would have us on 41 I think It really isn't far fetched that we stay up The unknowns are transfer success, injuries and further points deductions but we need to crack on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutch Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Would have Big Dave back in a flash Miles better than Wright/Earl/Hobbs/Earl And just think of the piss up in Fanny’s when we are Div 4 Champs 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Casino Posted January 3, 2020 Moderators Share Posted January 3, 2020 You may well be right I just think it's miles easier going forward if we can stay up this year and I'll be gutted if we don't try And I'm not trying to set Hill up for a fall I'm not asking much If my sums are right, it's 34 needed from 23 then we see where we are 1.5 per game Win at home, lose away....ish I do fear a further points penalty, after which all bets are off, however I'd expect we have made it clear to the league that overturning the decision of their independent commission will see court action taken against them, so who knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErnestTurnip Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Sure it's 18 from 16 under KH not 15 but either way anything is possible until it isn't, problem for me is I don't think Hill is good enough to do it going off his past record.

Leyther_Matt Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 A glorious failure might be the best thing all round. Not often teams go in to a lower division with a whole load of momentum behind them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
