How do you think we will do? I don't watch L1 at all and couldn't tell you fk all about that bullshit but that's where we are headed. I've gone through denial and anger. I'm at acceptance now.
What's the standard there these days?
If we kept this sorry bunch of hooped c**ts would we do alright down there?
Genuine question. I've got no idea.

If we kept this sorry bunch of hooped c**ts as you put It i'd reckon we'd be lower bottom half of the table.
There are bigger clubs down there fiffing and faffing about an example being Derby County who today lost at Stevenage 3-1.
Now you imagine In a year's time playing at Stevenage and you'd be forgiven for maybe thinking we'd get a result there.
Doesn't work like that, some 'named' clubs down there that cant get out.
It Is some sort of evil football Dungeon down there, you can't escape. |  |

Still a long way to go, without major change this does all feel rather terminal admittedly. Amazed at the constant crowds, it's a struggle to fork over my £35 at the moment I have to say.
Re: League One the misty eyed nostalgic in me thinks back to the two promotion chasing years as the time I was most in love with QPR. Took me from 15-17 traipsing all over the place watching the Rs and Messrs Rowlands, Cook, Shittu and co.
It's a different league and financial situation now though isn't it - and a lot harder to get out of.
One of the most interesting things, if we did go down, is seeing who from our squad other Championship clubs would consider taking a punt on....Field, Chair, Paal, Dykes and Cannon seem the only solid bets? Players like Jimmy Dunne have been a key part of a leaky defence for over two years now - looking every bit a middling League One CB these days.
As North often says people in football talk and I can't imagine people will be knocking the door down for any of the others. |  | | |

It is only October, you're right.
Hey, by the way when did we last win at home? Remind me. | |

Dave Thomas of AKUTR fame was on the Open All R’s podcast the other day and said he was looking forward to the variety if we go down. I tend to agree.
Assuming off pitch financials aren’t a worry I look forward to not going to Blackburn or West Brom for a change, which I hear is a a good as a rest.

We might all get on Season Four of Welcome to Wrexham the way things are going in League Two - think you'd be an excellent ambassador for the club for that Ted. | | | |

It's only October
But the current situation has us in the bottom three until least mid November and that's if we win two or three on the bounce and results from other clubs go our away.
When was the last time we won 3 games in a row?
Wake up we need to make this change ASAP. [Post edited 28 Oct 2023 19:45]

As it stands this team would struggle like mad - its got a losing mentality in it and that needs ripping up entirely to get rid of. |  | | |

That's my thinking too. If relegation means financial meltdown and all that, then maybe not advised. If it just means new teams to play then I've really not got a problem. |  | | |

In L1 we'd be a team others would want to target. I don't think we'd finish above mid table with the remnants of current squad. |  |

It would be a very different experience to when we went down under Holloway, thats for sure. Clever clubs with shrewd up and coming tactical managers and structures in place for a consistent style and recruitment policy thrive now. Thats not us at the moment and we could easily be like Charlton or Derby thrashing around at nothing hoping to get lucky. This is why the DoF/Sporting Director appointment is going to be vital for us to create that |  |

Forget this bullshit thread. If Warnock comes he will deliver us into the promised land (the middle of the bottom half of the table). Let's goooo! | |

Isn't just about every club 'clever' compared to ours (where 'clever' just means employing professional staff with ideas, creativity, intelligence, passion, and ability)? Our staff appear to be the dregs of the professional game, continuously over-praised and scandalously under-performing. If only the likes of Ramsey, Belk and Hoos had the guts and shame to resign, our club would be in a better place overnight.
Right now, I'd keep Field, Chair and Jude the Cat, and depopulate the rest of the building. [Post edited 30 Oct 2023 18:29]

My concern is we need 42 points to stay up and I have no idea where we will get them from. If it’s still this bad in a month or so we will need play off form to get to 50 points and that is not happening with this rabble. | | | |

There's plenty of time to stay up. Contrary to the current narrative quite a lot of our first team are established championship players and they are good enough to keep us up. Once you can find a way to win it's a lot easier to get out of the bottom three than it is to get into the playoffs from the top ten or from the playoffs into the top 2. |  |

The big thing for me is the bloody Pizza Trophy. At a minimum, three more midweek games to cover, including one against a Premier League puppy farm. How chastening is that going to be, a home game against fcking West Ham U21s or some such sht.
What I should do is boycott it, because that's what everybody should do until they remove the Prem teams from it. But of course if I do that we'll end up winning 4-3 in front of 80,000 people at Wembley with a last minute Sinclair Armstrong goal while I'm sitting at home going "oh I'm having a boycott". |  | | |
