In the next 6 weeks you can expect to be relegated and that is a real shame but was ALWAYS going to happen. At every stage this season it has been clear for all to see that you'd be going down. All except for that amazing little run that you went on. Stopped by a Bath City battering.
Anyway, i don't come here to attack you, nobody is sadder to see people supporting a club in trouble than me. I know that one day i will have to watch Bath City struggle and so i can tell you that i wish you the very best of luck in the future.
The question is thoug, how well do you think you can bounce back? Have you invested well enough in young great players or is your squad made up of older more experenced players that may need to be replaces in a major summer overhaul?
Your views on life in step 3 would be welcome, many thanks.
Take care
Lord Diablo.

We are not relegated and I would say in 4 days time you could well be eating your words!

Is Lord Diablo your Nom de Plume ? Is it an anagram made up from your real name of Lora B. Dildo ?

There's a word for people like you, it rhymes with at.

[glow=red,2,300][/glow]I think your giving him more credit than he`s due. Personally I don't think he`ll be able to guess what it is that rhymes with " at " So I feel in the interest of sportsmanship I feel I should offer a little help and assistance.
Here are the missing letters diablo, see if you can put them in the correct order to find the word that rhymes with " at " ?

What a pathetic lot you are. I have asked an honest and reasonable question about how you think you will be able to recover next season, about the infrastructure of your club and the like. If the brain power of your fans can only extend to paranoid insilts then i think you should get everything you deserve as a club.
However!
My above question still stands.

Tell you the truth mate we are still hoping we will stay up. It may be forlorn hope but it still exists which may be why everyone is so touchy about your subject.
I haven't even really thought about whether we will cope. I think we may lose a lot of players if we are, and it could depend on that. But as I say I don't think anybody is really thinking about next season yet really.

Diablo, they're a tad sensitive on here you know!
Anyway, as I posted a couple of weeks back, what could possibly come to your rescue is that there are 4 possibly 5 really poor clubs in Connie South and that means you shouldn't have to amass anything like the 48pts one of your posters suggested pre-crimbo, for survival. Well you wouldn't get that anyway. But something as low as 37, maybe 40 pts could actually keep you up, after all, you are only 6pts short of safety (well 7 if you factor GD in!).
But I think you have to win the next two since you have a lot of tough games ahead.

What about your lot Ratty? Are they going to do it this year, or shoot themselves in the foot again in the play offs.

Whilst most Wimbledon fans think that if we're not the best team in the IPL, then we're the 2nd best, I actually think Horsham and Staines are better sides (and Chelmo of course). That's very disappointing based on the supposed strength and cost of our squad but probably similar to the experience of Aldershot fans a while back ...
We should make the playoffs again - it will be us, Staines and Horsham plus one from about 5/6 clubs below us. Our chances of success will largely depend on achieving a good run of form in March-April.

It's not sensitivity, it's failing to see the obvious. Having looked at the stats back to 45/6, U's have hae often had slow starts but nearly always regrouped to enjoy a good middle from around games 11-25. That's not happened this season & the only times it hasn't we've finished in the bottom two of the leage we're in.
Now, there maybe lies, damn lies and statistics but.......
I'm just hoping for a miracle. And I hope the players think the same as those who have posted above rather than my, uh hum, more scientific approach.

Given some of the football goings on this week (another foreign coach for England who can't speak English, Premier clubs greed by playing abroad, another league club in admin etc etc) I would think that any sniping about rival clubs is a little pathetic. I don't mind friendly banter at all but I would have thought that Bath City and Carshalton Athletic have enough things to worry about in their own back yards. Neither club is brilliantly supported or has loads of cash after all. Good luck to the U's today v Thurrock.

If the brain power of your fans can only extend to paranoid insilts then i think you should get everything you deserve as a club. However! My above question still stands. Read your own initial post, then ask yourself, if someone came on to Newports forum starting a thread in the way you have, would you not think that they were takin` the piss ?? Me thinks you might react with a similar reply Oh and by the way, can you please enlighten me as to what " paranoid insilts " are as my brain cannot extend far enough to understand or comprehend it`s meaning
