Relegation thread

[Sestonpoolie]

Pools are utter crap with a stupid manager thinking we can play like Barca.
God knows what happening off the pitch,everything seems to be going tits up.
But Notts & Orient seem to be in an even worse state,Newport & Cheltenham are just shyte & 2 of those 4 will go down saving our bacon.
But we won't be so lucky next season

 

[RavenBish]

I can't believe anyone would seriously consider us as relegation candidates when we have inspirational figures like Jonathan 'Jon' Stead and Alan 'Smudge' Smith at the club. The other teams in the relegation dogfight such as Orient, Newport and Mansfield do not possess this sort of experience and leadership.

You think you've got it bad? WHAT ABOUT US?

We have now lost 2 games in a row and gone more than 10 games without a clean sheet. We were top of the league at the end of November and now we're down to fucking 3rd. I'd gladly swap places with your club because at least you get to laugh about it!!

I found it strange in the summer how everyone was bigging up Cr

Newport got promoted with a lottery winners money, he got bored of spending all his money and left, now they're going back to where they belong. Id happily swap them for a proper club like lincoln now.

More than a possibility, knew the Cowley's would do well but wasn't expecting 1st.

It's gone past a laughing matter now,it's just friggun draining

Big D was our inspirational figure, now it's down to the Beast Jensen and the slab crackers Evans and Raynor.

Anyway no need to mention Mansfield in this thread tar.

 

[Boz]

Boreham Wood, Solihull, Braintree and Bromley I can barley wait.

Cheshire derbys with Chester, Macclesfield, maybe Rovers?

Great win for Cheltenham today!!

Well done guys, keep it going

 

[shoddycollins]

I actually heard a Carlisle fan behind me today say 'this time next month we'll be bottom' and I struggled to pick up any sense of sarcasm in his voice. He sounded like a bit of a fairweather fan and this is honestly what the rank and file believe. Just a couple of weeks ago I was stood outside the train station and there was a guy beside me meeting some family or friends from outside the county and the conversation I heard went like this.

Little girl (who I think supported Liverpool): Is there a football team up here
Man who had come to meet girl and girl's family: yeah, Carlisle United
Little girl: 'do you support them?'
Man 'yes'
Little girl: 'are they any good?'
Man: 'laughs.... no, last time I looked they were down near the bottom'.

Maybe he was reading it on a tablet and he had it upside down....?

Brilliant win for us yesterday, but Accrington were no great shakes. Thought their red seemed a bit harsh (not seen the highlights) and have no idea what their keeper was playing at with the pass-back.

Continue to play like that and I'd like to think we'll win more than we lose between now and the end of the season.

I felt at the time he probably just hasn't looked at the table since two years ago when we were in the relegation battle. If you're wearing something with the United badge or name on it out and about you do still occasionally get asked if Carlisle are still down the bottom of the table by Premiershite fans who claim they 'have a soft spot for the local team'.

Hignett sacked just waiting for official confirmation.

We all knew about this a week ago, a lad on our forum called it, said the new manager rumoured to be Dave Jones had already been offered the job, everyone's now lumping on him, he opened at 16/1 and obvs has plummeted so much they've since suspended betting..

 

[Murphy]

No disrespect to Hartlepool but Dave Jones is a bit of a coup for this level isn't he? Always seemed to be floating around the Championship.

That said, I'm sure he was in the papers for one or two things which may have cast a shadow on his reputation.

 

[jacobncfc]

He would've been five years ago. When did he last even manage a team!?!

 

[Chief Rocka]

I'll believe it when I see it, we usually go for someone who's done nowt in football, as opposed to someone with a bit of pedigree.

Chairman has already said it's not going to be a drawn out process so it would suggest he's already got the man he wants.

 

[Carver]

Hartlepool won't Dave Jones, the only person Hartlepool are capable of getting is another bozo straight off of the street!

What, like someone from this forum

Was 'appoint' the word you were after in that jumble of words you call a sentence?

 

[Carver]

I just heard a rumour that they're after a bloke called Steve Bleasdale.

"WHEN IT'S A BATTLE, YOU FUCKING BATTLE!"

 

[Boz]

Rovers were linked with DaveJones in our last league season, but he didn't want it and sadly we ended up with Adams. Would be a surprise if he took the Pools job

 

[hellogregory]

Speaking of Dave Jones, I haven't seen daviejones on here for a while

He left his phone in his locker so hasn't been able to post.....

Oh he still comes on here but he doesn't dare post anything because he's shit scared of me.

I went to Cheltenham yesterday and witnessed an awful display from us.
This team reminds me of Tranmere a number of years back where did very well in the cup competitions but didn't repeat it in the league.
I think we're very much still in the shit league wise - Coleman is hoping to bring some more faces in by the end of the month.
