We are competing

Mon Dec 26, 2016 8:50 pm

Some of the negative posts on here do make you laugh, it's time for a reality check people. As a team under Trollope we weren't even competing and certain relegation was on the cards. As frustrating as the late goals have been, we have shown mid table form under Warnock and have made huge strides without even one transfer window.

The entertainment value has been fantastic compared to the previous managers, we are competing in every match and have picked up some great points of late. This clearly isn't good enough for some fans, but I think a reality check is needed and some live in a fantasy world. Granted we are all frustrated with the defensive lapses that are costing us, but slowly we will pull away from the relegation zone.

Neil Warnock takes no messing, he's restricted in certain positions but nails it to the mast and is as Ho eat as they come. Huge strides and we are not far off turning the draws in to wins.

Spot on mate, Warnock job is to keep us in this league and that's it, and he is doing his job well so far imo.

We were playing away today against a team higher in the league than us. Most neutrals would have gone for a home win given where both sides are at present. I thought if things went for us a point was just about possible. As far as I am concerned, any away point is a good one when you are in our position. I'm afraid some fans think we are the Mighty Cardiff City and should blow away teams like Brentford. One day it will sink in that we are not one of the giants of football, and that away draws against teams like Brentford have to be earned.

Agree with this. Betted on a draw too so made a tidy profit. Wales Online called it too.

we were dead and buried under Trollope.
probably as bad a manager as I have seen in 40+ years.
will be interesting to see warnocks wheeling and dealing in January.
I expect us to finish comfortably mid table, hope he stays for next season, so we can fully rebuild.

Great op. Warbock has clearly made a positive impression. The games are far more entertaining too! We will stay up and build for a possibly playoff next year.
