Gladly.

If we turn things around and start consistently playing like a top-six side (and not just in Worthy's imagination), I will VERY happily admit I was wrong, believe me.

But if I look at the squad we have, and particularly the squad we're likely to have by the end of Jan, I just can't see it happening.

      - Happy with MLJ, Hughes, Marney (loan) and Jarrett, are you? (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 15:31:10
        
        No of course we all want better than that (NCFC) - Clare, Nov 18, 15:45:01
        
        No, he got what was as good as he could get, at the time. (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:35:29
        
        And that's not a reflection on his ability? (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 15:38:55
        
        Of course it is partly a reflection on his ability (NCFC) - Clare, Nov 18, 15:48:11
        
        I'd rather we kept the money... (NCFC) - Jono, Nov 18, 15:51:42
        
        You can in WOTB world. (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:50:23
        
        I recognise that you two enjoy feeling like the counsels of wisdom (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 15:52:21
        
        cracking first line and so true! (n/m) (NCFC) - jonah3000, Nov 18, 16:08:39
        
        Not necessarily. But I don't believe that the fault would be all Worthington's. (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:53:45
        
        Phew, that's all right then. (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 15:55:25
        
        And if it doesn't, will you do the same ? (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:57:08
        
        Its not about right or wrong its just opinion (NCFC) - Clare, Nov 18, 16:06:14
        
        'If we stay up the anti Worthingtons will say it was inspite of him and we were lucky...' (NCFC) - Jono, Nov 18, 16:12:30
        
        Disagree - it's not as simplistic as to blame just one person. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 16:15:21
        
        Of course not. Altho Worthy seemed happy to take quite a bit of credit... (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 16:16:45
        
        Definitely... (NCFC) - Delveg, Nov 18, 16:22:48
        
        Do you think so ? I never got that impression. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 16:20:56
        
        Yes, but all those mistakes I listed somewhere else... (NCFC) - Jono, Nov 18, 16:20:09
        
        If we go down, there can be no Worthington supporters any more. (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 16:09:15
        
        Worthington can't - no. But I can blame the players. (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 16:12:17
        
        Yep, that's pretty much it. Not sure 'courage' is the right word though. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 16:08:06
        
        Gladly. (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 16:00:34
        
        I agree. He has, on reflection, bought poorly. (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:45:43
        
        So both the players we bought, and the ones here already, (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 15:50:06
        
        And rightly so (NCFC) - Clare, Nov 18, 15:53:50
        
        I'm an individual - I do fuck all all day at the minute and am un-motivated. (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:52:07
        
        Yes, but he *sees* your performance... (NCFC) - Jono, Nov 18, 15:55:50
        
        What's the difference ? (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:58:49
        
        Ok, there's no difference, but... (NCFC) - Jono, Nov 18, 16:03:57
        
        100% ? Of course not. So why is he carrying 100% blame ? (n/m) (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 16:05:16
        
        Yes, simply because it's a build up of things... (NCFC) - Jono, Nov 18, 16:09:45
        
        Is it you and everyone else on your team too? (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 15:53:31
        
        No he didn't. In the main it is just me. (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:55:37
        
        Hold on - right above you listed (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 15:58:09
        
        Ashton is the only one in both lists... (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 16:02:15
        
        They were not the best he could have got at the time, what planet do you live on? (NCFC) - Gary Doherty, Nov 18, 15:38:25
        
        And that's ignoring the fact that there's a whole world of players outside the UK, too ... (n/m) (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Nov 18, 15:42:24
        
        yeah. but they're not good honest pros like Hughes and Jarrett. (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 18, 15:47:12
        
        No there aren't. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Nov 18, 15:45:05
    - Yes, but compare the players Palace have lost with the ones they've brought it. (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Nov 18, 15:27:50
      - Ward & McAnuff - already in London, Morrison went home. (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:29:32
        
        Too true ... (n/m) (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Nov 18, 15:30:06
      - brought *in* - sorry ... (n/m) (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Nov 18, 15:28:09
  - Notice that (NCFC) - Winged Eel Creosote, Nov 18, 15:22:38
  - I nearly cried when I read that. (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Nov 18, 15:21:33
- Pork Bellies (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Nov 18, 15:17:41
- Ashton's contract extension cost a small fortune, so I am led to believe. (NCFC) - Arganth, Nov 18, 15:16:52
