If you do go down I think you're in better shape to come back up than most who drop, as long as Vince keeps funding the club. It's not the case that you're teetering on bankruptcy like quite a few who drop and have to do a radical cutting of budget to stay afloat.I'm just fed up of being 24th. Spent most of last season and a fair bit of this there, every time you look at the table it's depressing af. At the very least if we do go down I hope we don't end up finishing bottom of the league for 2 seasons running.
From conversations yesterday it would appear that Dale's financial state is somewhat uncertain at the moment, despite appearing in the Times rich list, his latest ex-wife is intent on getting her share of his fortune...and has apparently stated that any donations he makes to political parties should come from his share of the pot and not hers. Also, interestingly, it would appear that funding of our "new" ground is dependant on him selling his remaining share of Ecotricity...which he tried to do as we were heading into the energy crisis and couldn't find a buyer. I'm not sure that he is currently in a position to maintain the current funding model...the club has been cutting costs over the past few months, which is definitely sensible and suggests it might be planning for next season in the National League.If you do go down I think you're in better shape to come back up than most who drop, as long as Vince keeps funding the club.

I instinctively thought that’s Grimsby safe after yesterday but 4 of their final 5 games are away and they’ve struggled on the road. They are still likely to pick up the minimal number they need but you just never know. Lose the next couple and Colchester Tuesday week could be huge and I’d back the home side in that one. Some definite straw clutching on my part but clutch I will. It would be nice if they were still needing points (or a point) going into that game for sure. They do also have a nice back up in Swindon at home.Can't look past Forest Green and Sutton. Colchester will find enough with their games in hands to edge away.
Delighted Grimsby have got away from the argy bargy. Hopefully learn from a few mistakes this season and not be in the same situation. Their recruitment was bad and still not sure on Artell at all for them.
First week in April and Grimsby have lost once away this year!

Not sure I'd fully agree with that. We've been hard to beat on the road for some time now. Last weekend, Barrow were the first team to beat us away since we lost at Mansfield on Boxing Day. We haven't won many so I can see what you're getting at, but even if we don't beat Swindon I think we're capable of grinding out enough on the road. I think if we beat Swindon that'll be enough, but the table might well be looking a bit scarier than it does right now before that match.I instinctively thought that’s Grimsby safe after yesterday but 4 of their final 5 games are away and they’ve struggled on the road.

The recruitment wasn't as bad as you're suggesting, to be fair. The players that were already in the squad not being good enough this season has been as much to blame, if not more to blame than the new players. We were hamstrung in midfield as we only had enough wiggle room to make one change in that department in the summer, for instance. Defensively, it's been a mixed bag so a bit harder to call but that's the area of the squad you're probably looking at and saying that we recruited poorly in in the summer. With that being said though, I think they've not had good protection from a poor midfield until the signing of Curtis Thompson. In attack, we're stronger than last season and that's despite losing John McAtee who is a top player at this level and George Lloyd who is a decent player at this level. Artell's recruitment has generally been good since coming in too. I'm really hoping for wholesale changes in midfield in the summer as that's been our problem area for two seasons now in my opinion and that's even when you consider how poor the defenders have been at times this season. The lack of consistent creativity in the middle for us has been a problem for too long now.Can't look past Forest Green and Sutton. Colchester will find enough with their games in hands to edge away.

I think you’ve pretty much agreed with what I said. Yeah you’ll likely be fine, but still a touch of work to do and pressure could come back on. And I’m doing my best to find a little hope!Not sure I'd fully agree with that. We've been hard to beat on the road for some time now. Last weekend, Barrow were the first team to beat us away since we lost at Mansfield on Boxing Day.

You don’t deserve our kindness after doing us over so much in recent years but I wouldn’t want to see you lot go down again.
Yep been there. That’s exactly what happened to us with back to back 24th placed finishes during 16/17 & 17/18 season. Would feel like a bit of a full circle moment for us if you did get relegated, with us coming back up and you heading down after we got relegated at your place back in 2018. Horrid scenes on that side terrace, still remember it clear as day.I'm just fed up of being 24th. Spent most of last season and a fair bit of this there, every time you look at the table it's depressing af. At the very least if we do go down again I hope we don't end up finishing bottom of the league for 2 seasons running.
Any chance you can hold on until the last game of the season so we can relegate you.Back in 04-05 we lost 3-1 at Morecambe to seal (what we thought) was our relegation from the Conference, with one game to spare.
19 years later and it looks very much like the same thing is going to happen, with us being mathematically relegated at Morecambe next week. Nice bit of deja vu.

Tamworth is an excellent day out. I went there in our promotion season and was drinking in a pub with a group of their supporters before the match. Turned out we had some mutual friends.Meh, didn't like it up here anyway. Back to Solihull & Tamworth it is.
I e been to Tamworth more than once, it is anything but an excellent day out! Awful town, awful ground, awful atmosphere and we will most likely get beat!!Tamworth is an excellent day out.

I was indifferent to who out of Sutton or Colchester went down, but after our match on Saturday, I'm happy if we see the back of Sutton. I get they were playing for their lives in L2 but I haven't seen a dirtier team on and off the ball this season. Come on Colchester.
