Isegrim 8870 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Whilst it looks entirely possible we could go down, I think we have enough about us to drag our collective ar$es to safety. I can't see (perhaps I'm blinded by my optimism) the likes of Shearer, Given and a few others letting that happen. I also believe that, as piss poor as we are, there are poorer teams than us currently in the league. This is where LM reminds us of how much we have spent and how little return we have had and how much better our position was under SBR. Before he does that, I agree it's a disgrace and to have reached that halfway point of the season, looking to consolidate our position to avoid relegation is nothing short of disasterous. If reports are to be believed, we may have a happier, more collective dressing room; but we appear to have an unhappy, directionless, disparate group of players on the pitch. Please Sir...... can I have my unhappy dressing room that wins games back please? 74548[/snapback] I think the whole "happy dressing room" is utter nonsense anyway. We probably havea dressing room full of proper yes-man who are too frightened to say something against the tosser or his allies. I think every player knows that if he dares to criticize any action of Souness he has most likely played his last game for the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggiespaws 0 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 (edited) I suppose if the recent reports of bust-ups are to be believed, then we don't even have a happy dressing room. I'd like to change part of my original post. I refered to the players as an unhappy, directionless, disparate group of players. I'd like to change that to 'collection' of players as the word 'group' imply's Souness has organised them to a degree. I'm not sure I agree with your bit on the players fearing their exit from the club if they critisise as, on one hand, I can't see Shearer and Given for example taking it lying down when the club's going south. Then again, I can't see them creating a situation whereby Shepard would have to choose between player and manager either, so I guess that blows a hole in that theory.......

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 I'm thinking its more likely. The Mackems are doomed obviously, but are there two other teams in the division who are definitely worse than us? All the teams around us hav took points off us recently and this season is unusual in that two of the promoted teams are in the top half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish Mag 3 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 but are there two other teams in the division who are definitely worse than us? 79341[/snapback] Thats my concern. Whilst many feel we are to good to go downi cant say that i`m confident that the likes of Birmingham, Pompey, Everton, Boro etc etc are certainties to go down with the Mackems.

LeazesMag 0 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 (edited) Seems to be the new buzz word on here at the minute. Who is genuinely, seriously of the opinion that we are in any danger of relegation this season? Not just in a Dad's Army "We're doooooomed", something-to-finish-my-post-off with way, but a real genuine belief that we stand a greater than 50% chance of being relegated. I'll stick my neck out and say we'll stop up this season. No bother. 74068[/snapback] bottom 6 without a doubt....if not for points in the bag through Owens goals we would be in serious danger, as yet we will be looking over our shoulders until the very end, we could quite easily sucked right into it with the spirit at the club flagging alarmingly now Lower expectations has been mentioned a few times on here since Souness came in mind you Edited January 15, 2006 by LeazesMag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 I know someone who spoke to a certain injured central midfielder (signed by Souness) recently and, by all accounts, the 'happy dressing room' thing couldn't be further from the truth.
