    Also there was a post recently where the Wigan Chronicle or some such predicted that we'd get no more than 20 points for the season!

    Just one more point to look forward to then over the next 5 months

    To be fair though most of us have had similar thoughts at one time or another this season.

    In fairness, there was only a handful of us out of the entire forum who weren't throwing toys out the pram a couple of months ago.

    Whereas we’ll finish 19th. Hope the tantrum babies that said they’ll stay away, don’t do that and we can just get on with it. If they do, pity, but ok

    just out of interest, how many posters are there on here. sit admin? there has definitely been a massive majority who had us down several games ago. it was all too soon to predict. I've been preaching patience from day 1.
    what I would really like to see now is that when we lose our next game, or two, or three, is for certain posters on here to be less harsh and malicious with their criticism of the players. it's obvious they're playing their hearts out every week so instead of the negativity it would make a change to see some encouragement instead when things aren't going well.
    The support on the terraces has been superb this season. we should try and reflect that on here.

    I'll admit it I thought we were dead and buried.

    Fair play to the lads and coaching staff for the upturn in form.

    I still can't stand Conway though.

    I think I predicted 9th and I am ready to revise that to 14th because of the slow start :D

    I have to confess I thought we were dead & buried. I'm eating my words with glee. Still a long way to go & we need a good January, where Struber is listened to, not the spreadsheet.

    I admit I wrote us off after the Stoke game. Fair play to all players and staff since then. We now have a fighting chance....COYR

    There looks to be around 892 accounts, but not all of the people registered necessarily submit posts.
    I myself used to look at the site to keep up with what was being said, but it took me a while to decide
    to register and join in the various discussions.

    I would think there's been upwards of sixty or so on the board ŵho predicted that we would be relegated.
    We are still not out of the woods yet, but our recent form certainly gives us hope. Winning gives everyone
    a lift. If we get the experienced additions that GS has said he wants in January, who knows, we might just
    be able to claw our way to a position of safety.

    thanks for that. its probably reasonable to assume then that this forum does not accurately reflect the views of the 11000 we get every other week. interesting.

    We are going to stop up. The “plan” will then start to pay dividends and up we go. Weeehee.
