In the bottom three with a five point gap between us and safety, and what does the fixture computer send our way next? The tantalising opportunity to pull the 4th from bottom team into the mire with us, and close the gap on the teams around us, as two of them are away to top 4 teams, and two of them are playing each other.
Except it's an away game.
250 miles away.
On the Saturday before Christmas.
The only thing that'd make it less of a draw for away fans was if it was a 5:15 kick off, so the chances of our support generating enough of an atmosphere to lift a demoralised team to a match-winning performance are only marginally greater than zero.
I'm trying to retain some degree of positivity, because otherwise the next 4 1/2 months are going to be utterly miserable, but sometimes it really does feel like circumstances are conspiring against us.

I really want to go and get behind them because this is undoubtedly a must not lose game but ive been doing it all season with no reward for my money.
Not sure if I can do 10 hrs in a car with a hangover for another defeat.
I know i shouldnt laugh...
shameful... definitely be a few chants of "did you come in taxi".
should we really be getting up there to support them??
It has to end sometime
We'll have between 250 - 400 there, and every single one of them deserves a medal, or some form or priority to something else.
Sometimes I wish I had the ability to not care.
