stop sniggering !
no, back to the point. I know its hard to see at the moment, but we can't just give up. We accuse players of not fighting enough for the cause, but we're prepared to give up at the beginning of December. Two wins and we might not even be in the relegation zone.
If we 'accept' relegation now, then the negative impact will echo throughout the club. The positive is that we simply can't get any worse than what we have been of late. If we had got a point today and a point on Tuesday, we would still be indecided. We MUST beat Blackburn now, we must give everything to create the right atmosphere.
Sometimes its little things that can turn everything. I always fancy us midweek at the Valley against virtually everyone, midweek home games always have the different buzz and feel around it. A win will give everyone belief.
I'm not giving up yet.

I don't think a healthy dose of realism is a bad thing. Lets set our expectations low and go in good heart and continue to give the team a positive atmosphere.
I think most if not all the C Lifers will be doing that, it is the rest of the support that we need to worry about...
It felt like we were relegated today, it really did.

You've not switched allegiances already ?? :-)
What about the season after the play off final. I'm sure at this stage of the season having lost however many on the spin there were a hell of a lot of people who were starting to accept that the same outcome was likely. Difference is that we - the fans - had the mentality of digging in and at least trying to enjoy it while we were there. The players also dug in and we made a good fist of it.
I'm sure the fans will dig in again - that's what we do. Question is, will the players?
Who would you prefer in the trenches with you: Brownie, Kins, Rufus, Robinson, the two Jones boys, Eddie Youds, et al - or the current crop???
Frightening when you look at it like that. Wouldn't back the likes of Romm, Ambrose, Hughes, Holland, etc in a ruck with a bunch of OAP's!!!
There's no bottle in the squad - collectively or individually.
We sang our hearts out to day, we really did and didnt get onto their backs when we really could of. Mis-placed balls, pulling feet out of tackles, we just don't need this in our current situation
I hope we can have one of our good nights under the lights and bounce straight back against Blackburn.
COME ON YOU REDS!!
1/ back to the Valley anniversary.
