Would settle for nineteenth at the minute.
Also think you will get to No1 this Christmas Cliff, with a remix of "Mistletoe and Wine".
Aptly named "Camel Toe is Fine". ;)

Not really bothered as long as we steer clear of relegation. A big job for the new management.

Hard to say until the new managers appointed. Get in right, we'll be ok and finish lower mid table.

In the national north.
I think people are being blinded by optimism at the moment by the search for a new manager but,we have had a clear indicator on which train the club is travelling.ie Anyone that can progress in the game is sold on for one reason or another.That kind of policy will see any club teeter for a while followed by the inevitable drop to a lower league IMO.

I am hoping for a repeat of the Daz and Dave experience- in the mire in November, promoted in April . On the other hand, perhaps I should change my drinking and smoking habits ;)

7th isnt good enough so i predict nothing but a title winning season. We have a squad with no weaknesses thanks to Ogden.

You can only go on what you see not what you think might, should or probably will happen. At the moment I don't know of anyone who is not a BAFC supporter that thinks we're not total relegation fodder based on results. So there's your answer. Similarly if you ask Guiseley fans the same question based on what they currently see on the pitch they'll tell you that they will survive. And they'd probably be right.

Our season is near enough dead in the water. Consolation is we have 30 games to fight (not plan or manage) our way out. Its quite possible the situation will worsen as some of the squad decide that they didn't sign on for a fight so the idea that at some point we'll be back to a full strength committed squad - undoubtedly capable of survival - may be a myth.

The club is currently stalled and in danger of entering a tail spin and as any aviation enthusiast will know that's a potentially fatal situation. Our situation is currently a bad one, made much worse by a string of practically poor decisions that had made little visible sense and have seemed to aggravate or accelerate our problems. It's gotta stop as should for the time being at least, talk of journeys, five year plans or promotions. Time to grow some cohones, one commodity that this club has historically never been short of.

Unless Mr Casson takes some decisive action (by appointing a decent manager and allowing him to spend some money to bring in two or three decent players), relegation.

Ask me after Tuesday.

We have the ability to survive, just hope we can apply ourselves to achieve it.

Do we?

We haven't won in 12 games and we have 6 points from a possible 33.

Where is the ability?
