bobzy Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Very decent start by Grayson with some apparently shrewd signings in there too - particularly Grabban who has hit the ground running. Played arguably 3 of the best teams in the league, 2 of them away from home and are unbeaten. Jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest our run of games has been quite tough as well to be fair despite us being turd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long tough winter ahead for them. Grayson should've stayed at PNE as he had a good thing going there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Thought they would struggle, but impressed me first couple of games. Their fans have completely lost interest. I think they are more depressed than we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Gotta feel for them as they look like us. Both sides should be in premier league if they were not so badly mismanaged Bet they hit form right before they play us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted September 23, 2017 Moderator Share Posted September 23, 2017 I said in the summer I thought they were highly likely to do a double drop and everything I've seen since supports that, they will go down with Bolton this season and hopefully Small Heath. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One For The Road Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I'd be delighted if they dropped again. They have a really pathetic, irrational dislike of us. At least their neighbours hate us for the fact we sent them down, the Mackems hate us for signing Darrent Bent. Idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I really couldn't see them going back to back relegations but they really have messed up the summer window. They looked solid earlier in the season, unspectacular but organised and workman like....but they badly lack quality, and the confidence has just drained out the team. You have to be especially shit to get relegated from this league, but it is looking like a dead club at the minute with Ellis Short still in charge. It's a shame but at some point you have to stop chucking money down the drain and say enough is enough. I give it a week before Bruce uses them as an example of the good job he has done stopping the rot, completely ignoring the fact we have a capable playing squad.

Both bought into a club with good intentions, spent and lost a fortune and made horrendous mistakes all along the way. It would be interesting to see what happens to them if they get relegated again this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grayson is getting it now and the only good news for him as that they probably cannot afford to sack him...but honestly, look at the team -what is he supposed to do?
