DurhamFox said:I don't have one YV but it seems people are giving it the big 'back Levein' - 'give him 3 years' etc etc but then are saying if we are in trouble in November we will have to get rid! Which is it? are we backing him or not?
I take it that was to me.highland fox said:Fair comment DF,I'm backing Levein all the way because I don't believe we will be relegated don't think we will even come close to it,but it seems others are 'hedging their bets' so they can be right on both counts.

I'm not hedging my bets i'm backing Levein NOW!!! I'm not moaning about the position we are in like everyone else seems to be.
If you read my original post I made it clear that IF things got worse you have to look at it.
"Of course, if things get worse and we find ourselves in the bottom three at Christmas then it is time to maybe look at things. But not now!!!!!!! Please support the team the club and the manager as much as you can."
highland fox said:I think also a lot of the people on here who are 100% behind Levein & Co don't get on here and say so because they are a bit tired of hearing the same negative/inevitible 'vibe' after every match so no longer bother looking and that isn't aimed at anyone in particular before you start DF
DurhamFox said:I honestly don't know. I can't see the sense though in one breath saying back him and in the next saying get rid in 8 weeks if we are in the bottom 4 - by then it's too late. Now is the time to make a decision and stick by it, not next week, not in November, not in the New Year.
I don't know who you turn to if you get rid but can it get much worse than the last few weeks? Rubbish football, rubbish results, rubbish excuses, I could go on.....
DurhamFox said:HF we are in a relegation battle now. We have had a very easy start to the season and we are 2 points off the drop zone.
highland fox said:We aren't Durham.Relegation fights don't start in October,we have had a bad start to the season.How can you judge an easy start,if you know which teams are going to be stronger this season before a ball is kicked then you must have some sort of gift.There are no easy games you are looking at Brighton ,Crewe, Cardiff etc and thinking 'they are total shite we should beat them' but its not the case anymore.We are equally as bad as them,its a poor League full of poor sides and we are one of them,the only difference being we will improve IMO.You've said yourself how well Watford are doing and at the start of the season you'd have probably lumped them in with the Brightons and Crewes and had Norwich in the Top Three by now.2 points of relegation and 5 off the Play offs.
DurhamFox said:.....and we have lost/drawn to all of them. Relegation battles start from the first game and we are in the mire, make no mistake about that.
highland fox said:Thats why I used them as Examples..I really do understand how you are feeling DF but you are over doing it on the pessimism honestly.Like I said 5 points off the Play Offs,if I said that to you in August I'd imagine you'd have taken it? I'm not being as stupid enough as to think we are at the moment playing like ateam that are 5 points off the Play Offs but just for a second try looking up instead of down.I'd imagine there are a lot of Championship fans around the Country who are uneasy with being X amount of points off Relegation but constant talk of Relegation in late September is a bit miserable even for us
I knew you'd get round to thisDurhamFox said:Please don't take this as a dig HF, but you aren't watching the games, you aren't at the ground on match days. There is a real lack of spark on and off the pitch. Everbody including the players and the manager seem down in the dumps. It's not a nice vibe. I admire your optimism but what single thing do we have to be optimistic about?
