Where are we at?
Just wondering where people consider we're at in the season.
Play-offs look within our reach but have we got a realistic chance of 2nd or 3rd, Nhampton seemingly running away with the league? Was Carlisle a blip or did it expose our limitations (absence of Windass,Winnard reliance on Crooks) |
Re: Where are we at?
I'm sure Carlisle game was just a temporary blip - every confidence that the lads will turn it around for Saturdays' game v Crawley & I'm also sure the reverse fixture against our Cumbrian friends will be a different story than at Brunton Park
Shay is more than able to replace Josh as he's already shown, for me Crooksy will be the bigger miss but again we have players chomping at the bit for their chance, Proccy, Scott Brown & of course Rommy - we'll be just fine :) |
Re: Where are we at?
I also reckon we will be fine, am just sorry i will not be at the crawley game, but thats life.

Re: Where are we at?
2 wins from safety in all probability. Every squad in the league is limited some way, a win v Creepy will push us up the league with 6 of the top 7 playing each other.

Re: Where are we at?
We got 7 away wins so far, reckon thats not too bad?:confused:

Re: Where are we at?

Re: Where are we at?

That's why we need to build our loyal hardcore fan base, Fans that will turn up week in week out that will stick by us if times got tougher.
We got 3000 in our Conference winning season where are they now? Rovers got 25k fans in Premiership now only get 12k, So just in that alone there are nearly 15 thousand football fans in Hyndburn that are no longer going to football regularly that we need to attract to come and watch us! I just hope we make a really big push for season tickets and the new loyalty cards rather than just expecting fans to turn up to the ground and buy one like in previous years! |

Anyway, what's got to improve? We've won 3 lost 3 of the last 6, and none of the 6 before that (won 4 drawn 2) - and only 4 of those 12 were at home. All the losses were away, and all to top-half teams, including the runaway leaders. And if we were to win all our games in hand (OK not easy given the fixture backlog) we'll be at worst 4th and well clear of 5th. Doesn't look too bad to me, really :rolleyes: |
Re: Where are we at?
Well after tonights draw Mansfield are in 4th place 3 pts above us, we got 5 games in hand on them. on that basis alone were doing ok in my book.;)

[QUOTE=Chimer;1160690]I don't think anybody who got a season ticket for this season could be considered a fickle fan likely to be put off by a bit of a slump, given we only won 2 games out of the last 14 last season. So I don't see it likely that many of them are going to be upset enough by whatever happens next this time around not to renew. OK, fickle fans who have been attracted by our good form so far this season (not that there seem to be that many anyway)
I do think our home support has gone up slightly. a 10 per cent increase would only give us as extra 120 or so. people who buy season tickets are not fickle fans but the problem is our fan base isn.t getting any younger and some might think if we miss out on the play offs that enough is enough. there,s always the first match you go to but there is always the last as well. |
