I went to quite a few games that stood out during this rapid downward trajectory. Firstly the 2nd half of the 97/98 as we were tumbling down the table, I remember the 3-0 home defeat to a dreadful (Christian Gross) Spurs. I’d travelled up with my Spurs mate who phoned 606 on the way home to explain how shocked we were. I went with the same mate to the Wimbledon (Selhurst Park) match in Sep/Oct? We’d just signed Blake for £4m (I am sure he was a panic buy as we’d missed out on someone else) and he gave it all, but was woeful. We drew 1-1. Absolutely tipped it down, my mate was drenched and had to meet his new girlfriends parents for the first time in some swanky holiday - they were appalled. Finally the fateful Southampton 3-3 game with a few matches to go. Not only had we thrown away a 3-1 lead but were clinging on to the point in the end. Walking back after the match, it was the first time I (and seemingly many others around me) realised relegation was not just possible, but a very real threat. Thank God we still had Forest to play. I agree with many of the comments already made. We spent heavily, but mostly dross (panic buys), we had too many players, no leaders and no-one seemed to have twigged that Ashley Ward relegated everyone he played for. But for Filan it could have been much, much worse.

Football, Rovers, decent back story - highly recommend watching it ?? Also good to see that even then our facilities were more modern than Turf Moor.

Wasn’t it also because of all the clubs interested, Don was the only manager to personally fly out to Barcelona to speak to him?

Agreed. TM chops and changes, chops and changes. At the very least he needs to play players in the correct positions. No wonder our strikers can’t hit a barn door, they don’t get chance to settle and invariably are sent out to graze on the wing.

Yep, has to play centrally. Deserves some more game time.

Agreed. Playing time will polish the final ball / decisions, but he has the potential to be key.

It is a shame we missed out on Danny Cowley, he has turned Huddersfield around.

Shame! 4 games are, but not ours. Perhaps viewers can only handle so much excitement after Monday’s 0-0 ?

Head in hands moments... Losing 3-0 at home to Spurs under Christian Gross, then travelling back having to listen to my Spurs supporting mate get through to 606 to say how bad we must be to lose to them. Watching Ashley Ward, Paul Dickov and Nathan Blake so soon after Shearer. Forest fans enjoying the prospect of us bringing on Darren Peacock.

Yes, isn’t it depressing that we missed out on Cowley ?

On current ‘form’ Joey Barton and Mark Robins

Hmm, Houghton, the football wasn’t great at Brighton and signings etc were hit and miss.

Grim. With the money that has been made available (and spent!), with the quality in the squad, with the academy prospects... this is miserable. Yes he got us promoted but with our squad and budget that was a par expectation, not an achievement. Gutted Huddersfield beat us to the Cowley brothers.

My comments still stand. We could name 2 or 3 players we could live without in the squad with the money used to bring the gate prices down.

Decent performance considering Cardiff have just come down from the Premiership. Defence looking more solid and we know we have goals in the team. Dack working his socks off and the goals will come.

The admission prices are just too high. Max should be £20. In the short-term ending the relentless rises would hit income, but: 1 - Our fan base would stop diminishing, and therefore in the long-term be beneficial. 2 - The short term loss could and should be covered with trimming a little off the fringe squad.

Agreed. Much better imagination needed here and if they cracked it, both sales would increase and the overall match experience would improve, vital if gates are to build. Kidderminster Harriers have the best food offering - a local caterer 50+ years. People actually arrive early to get their lunch. Now ironically they were once reported as the most expensive food outlet, but it doesn’t compare to the offerings photographed above! http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/34539808/meet-the-man-behind-the-most-expensive-pie-in-football

Season subscription ordered ??

What would you want for them?

Wasn’t that against Villa in the FA Cup. Both sides had weakened sides, and Matt seemed back at his best. Remember leaving Villa Park celebrating his recovery.

If Mowbray was to go, I would like the Lincoln managers - Cowley brothers. Steady, significant improvement (and promotions and Cup runs) year in year. They deserve a crack at our level.

Urgh... So frustrating. Positive: We dominated the majority of the match and if we’d clicked around the box we’d have got a bag full. We will play worse than this and take 3 points. Travis and Johnson looked good. Plenty of other surprise results today, hopefully 1st match upsets, not a trend! Negative: Gallagher an average target man on the wing, yet another panic buy f ok Mowbray. A wobbler for Walton. We still can’t defend for toffee. Lets hope we quickly bounce back, we could and should.

Agreed ?? Some lagging issues but but I am sure they’ll settle down.

Brilliant addition, looking forward to future additions ??

Lincoln managers (Cowley) brothers. If not either Hughes or Johnson as they know the club.
