That will be the worst performance I will see live for the next two decades.
I still love this club.
I have taken up art to help with the frustration.

Is it contagious?
For the non chicken littles out there who want to look for the positives and hope for the future look at the following and little improvements during the rest of the season. Unfortunately they aren't supported by much so it makes wins hard. BUT focus on these green shoots and the fact they will be supported by a better group in 2019. Genuine hope

That's 23 PLAYERS and the majority added in the last 2-3 years and under 20 games.
That is as good a core of young talent any side as ever had. Not all will make it but IMO most will. It's hard now but the talent is there. Just sit back and watch it this season. Next year we will add Docherty Murphy & Willo AND another 8-10 talented players, some ready to go and some more young talent. Kruezer Curnow and maybe Simmo & Jones will again be regulars.
People saying we are too top heavy in our recruiting. Is it really that bad?
Look at the big picture and the future is very exciting. Go Blues.

nice work, soap, but I do wonder if the group you mention deserve - let alone appreciate - your effort.........For the non chicken littles out there who want to look for the positives and hope for the future look at the following and little improvements during the rest of the season. Unfortunately they aren't supported by much so it makes wins hard. BUT focus on these green shoots and the fact they will be supported by a better group in 2019. Genuine hope

Can I change my name to Chicken??
Seriously though, we can all agree that within 3 years Cripps and Charlie will be in the top 10 best players in the comp. Cripps is close already.
I reckon Charlie is worth the admission price alone.
No one since Kouta has excited me so much
