Stickem

It's going to be a hard sell IF we miss the post season ...The majority of fans will not buy this current group another year and it will start showing at the gate...This is a business and when the bottom line starts reflecting bad management and coaching the red flag is hoisted...There's been enough time for this current regime to at least produce a win in the playoffs...IF that doesn't occur the gloves will be off and the exit door for a few people on this club will be wide open...Bet on it

Here's one for you....beating an improved Mont. team is not a slam dunk by any means...Popkin...or whatever his name is hitting targets all over the field....Their D is starting to swarm like their old days...They don't need to start Johnny football cuz what they have is going to be a challenge...AND IF we do drop the next one say goodbye to 18' and most likely to our not so illustrious coach...Playing at IGF is not the advantage it used to be and Streveler will have to have a great game...O'Say says he's starting Nichols....I doubt he finishes...BUT surprise the hell out of me Mike and Matt

Why not make an attempt to acquire Rainey....He's sitting on the B.C. bench and is rumoured to be available....At least tell us you made an attempt Walters for cripes sake...We need a returner with some speed not a catch and flop bull$hitter like we have at present...

They certainly will especially if we're treated to some more Matty ball where he hits the opposition receivers more than the ones in bluengold...O'Shea better duck

Thankyou Elton Taupin……..The lyrics are pretty good and sums up a lot of the Bombers faithful fans feelings ..I hope it's not Goodbye BIGBLUE Road in 18.... cuz at present it's looking a lot like another dead end

Barring a miraculous finish to the season, this club has played itself, under the guidance of Mike O', to the brink of another failed year...Just a sniff of that type of finish is enough for the average fan to feel dejected....It's taken too long to show Cup contending results already...Another bad finish will most likely seal the fate of the head coach..How long does this management think fans are going to wait for results???This is a business after all and we're far off the mark in the success dept....Bringing back Mike for another shot after missing the post season, or creeping into a crossover, just won't be on...Could we surprise everyone and make an unexpectedly good Cup run??...Maybe...but the odds of us getting to the promised land with a qb. who has plainly lost it are very small...So the writing is on the wall and I know the faithful fans of this club can read it...These last few games are going to be crunch time for this regime...Finish badly and the writing on the wall will turn to 'that's all she wrote' for this coach...The way I see it

IF this season ends in a gas soaked dumpster with a tire fire adjacent to it, I don't see how bringing back O'Shea would be an option....Someone suggested bringing him back next year, even if we end up in that dumpster, to try his hand at fixing things and turning this club around….Sorry ...wrong headed....First of all after 5 years and we finish out of the post season....or even if we're a one and done...what's going to change....All we'll get is the same likable guy the players adore with the same mediocre results...Secondly if we did bring him back after another unsuccessful year AND he is the same O'Shea...how do you replace him with any credibility at that juncture...All of the good avenues will have been closed and we'd be stuck in ANOTHER losing year...No, not acceptable..it has to end in a clean break at the end of this year IF everything has gone south...Start next year with a clean slate and a clean house...

Anyone who could not see that Nichols (and granted some of the play calling) were the reason for this loss is suffering from ostrich syndrome....To tackle a problem and correcting it has to be firstly admitting and recognizing that there is a problem...Trying to cover it up just exacerbated the problem

Even the crossover looks to be a long shot with the way this team is playing....We need a shake-up remaining status quo is going to mean possibly missing the post season all together..... Even Mont. has improved with a fairly good qb. situation now....while we head for the basement....All of the bad roosters seem to be coming home to roost, that has plagued us since last year , and if we hope to snag a crossover we're trending in the wrong direction...Promising year has gone KABOOM ...However IF things change and we get lucky and sneak into a crossover spot, it'll be a one and dun, cuz every team in the east has improved, while we have deteriorated ...An alarming change from all of the optimism at the beginning of tc.

There has been many questions about how O'Shea manages the players but none are answered....Usually we get the quick brush off or no answer at all...Mismanagement is very obvious....you just have to look at how the qbs. are handled...Obvious holes in our line-up are not being addressed...(returner for one) and it's costing this team...It's down to O'Shea AND Walters to fix something over this bye week....it's their job....and it could literally mean their jobs if it isn't...Get a big receiver in here who can catch...not these spindly types like Thompkins and Washington...both of whom were nic'd badly when they tried to extend themselves...Washington hit the turf without really getting hit at all on one play and barely got up....IS this the best we can do???pitiful if it is O'Shea...Four game losses in a row better get someone's attention

Tough to say but I think the fat lady has just grabbed the mike...New regime please....the stench is becoming a bit unbearable

Rainey is a solid little returner but it would be tough to get him into the line-up for sure....I'd prefer to pursue Burnham IF Hervey is wiling to deal....A receiver of his calibre would go quite nicely with Adams...

So Nichols starts us off with a pic.....then ends the game with a pic......exactly the same as the Cal. game....Does anyone see a similarity....Matt is MIA when the chips are on the line...He has to deliver when that game was still winnable.....he didn't....I've seen enough of him for awhile and IF we don't make a change to Streveler next game (at least partially) this season is in jeopardy...There's no way to shine this crap anymore....Everyone can see we are failing badly and look like a wounded duck....I thought this team was better than what the fans are witnessing now...3 losses in a row at the apex of the season doesn't look promising...Win the banjo or we can start tuning up for next year...Gonna be a lot of unhappy sad faces in these parts if this occurs and the knives will be out

There once was a guy from Kent....who had a long one that bent....I'll leave it there before I get into trouble

Why Ottawa???

Next qb. for this club is getting closer to start with every unsuccessful Nichols outing...Give him more playing time seems to be in order

AND it really showed in the final score where it counts lol....give YOUR head a shake

Punting ...I'll agree....managing to return the ball to the 20 yard line...punt after punt, when the opposition is starting at the 35 to 40....not my idea of great special team action

Special teams on this club are suffering from severe 'suckage'....We get nothing on returns and it's an adventure on a lot of the opposition returns.. That was supposed to be the 'hallmark' of success on this club...(Mike O'Shea's words)....Should be one of the strongest part of our game and yet year in and year out we can't find that speedy little game breaker on returns, like most successful teams manage to find and it's far from being a strong point on this club....Not good enough after 5 yrs.

This team seems to have reached it's best before date.....Most likely slip away until the inevitable...This was a game that could have turned everything around and we came up empty....Valiant effort but that'll get you a coffee and donut at Timmies....'E' for effort ain't getting it dun...3 losses in a row and staring at a bad end if we drop the next one...Nice goin O'Shea

All of the O'Shea apologists will start coming out of the woodwork now BECAUSE...after all we have the best coach a player could want...There'll be no success on the field BUT hey the players luv him...That'll get you sweet bippy in the end....We're looking for a Cup...Really feel sorry for the fans who give everything to this club...including their cash....and the result is an other dead end

We're not going to win anything with Nichols or O'Shea and his gang of ineptitude....OVER REACTION you say....Look at the record after 5 yrs...the type of play we're seeing (except for Andrew) and we have the perennial loser ...Nobody can deliver on this team WHEN IT COUNTS...and that comes down to coaching, firstly,....secondly player personnel...This club has neither except for a few like Harris and Bighill....You won't win many Cups with a club found wanting like that...

Bout' time we started trending up...…...go get em BIGBLUE....and bring some serenity back to River City

It's about time we get a look at Washington….We need to assess him and process him....that being either play the man or release him....He'll give us a hint Labour Day

Send a copy of the stars to Ritchie Hall....should make his day
