Seen both...and this team is worse. No effort or respect among them for the shirt. I think we'll finish bottom unless Reading are hammered with a points deduction. The worst is, we could still be playing Rotherham next season in L1 - and they swept us aside easily enough.

If you would have asked me a month ago I would of said the 2000-1 team , but this last week it has to be this current lot, back then Chris Wright was being ousted out of the club now we accept the current clowns and shrug our shoulders and make pitiful excuses
And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

This is really helpful.
Who said polls and posts on LFW had to be helpful? It’s a place to be happy in the rare spells that things are going well and somewhere to vent when they’re going atrociously

The 2000 side was far less talented. We had a few players who were up to standard but the bulk of the team were way below the level required. Remember Gillingham away where the home side had about 85% of the ball but we somehow scrambled a 1-0 win, the only away win all season. We were terrible from start to finish that season.
This side is the most mentally fragile team I’ve ever witnessed, a real product of the modern age and I’m not sure any manager is equipped to handle a situation like this.

The difference is we know what this team can be capable of but lack of effort and simply downing tools is the difference and why I voted the 22-23 team.
The shocking behaviour of some particularly since Beale left has been a disgrace.

The 00/01 team were bottom 3 all season, it's not even close, they were awful
The current lot are rubbish as well but we are on pretty much the 2nd choice team at the moment
Dave, I thought the 00/01 team out of the bottom 3 (just) when Gerry resigned after the Wimbledon debecle and Olly took over. Olly only went on to win one match (out of something like thirteen) and sadly that's looking like the fate of Gaz.

it was pretty much a lost cause when Holloway came in damage had been done

It does depend how you look at it. The current team were top in October, but if you look at the Last few months in isolation they are far worse., Thank god we did get some points on the board, otherwise we'd be bottom by miles. The 2000/2001 team was poor, but didn't seem quite so unsavoury with all the overpaid wasters we currently have. And from a personal angle I did really enjoy that Gillingham away win living in Gillingham at the time

Man for man we have a far better squad of footballers available to us than in 2000-2001. There was not a single player back then who could have felt any real confidence about moving up to a better club in our division let alone rising to the Prem. They had all been found out in one way or another.
We had gathered a lethal combination of has-beens and never-could-bes. I believe Paul Murray was the only one who tasted football at a higher level after that and his career was already beset by injury.
Remember when Four Four Two projected Quas and Murray as England's starting midfield for the 2002 world cup? Funny now. Not so funny seeing that promise evaporate in real time. The depressives among us may see Willock and Chair as direct parallels today.
The biggest similarity is that there are a lot of players in both squads who would look perfectly fine in a good team but can't be relied on to save a sinking one. On the other hand this time around we do have plenty difference-makers (which were not available back then) but they are nearly all either injured or opting to stay out of the firing line. So there's that.
The most significant difference between then and now? In 2001 Chris Wright was desperately looking for a way out and in the process the whole club found itself in serious jeopardy. That is only the case now if a large enough section of the fans want it that way and turn understandable bile into "activism".
Ironically the mind set of the fans chanting "sack the board" now will be more or less the same as those chanting "Chrissy Wright Wright Wright" to almost the very last 22 years ago. There are no white knights coming to save the day and Wright somehow got away with being seen as one for far longer than was the actual case. He had decided to bail long before he actually showed his full hand and sucked up the adulation while a series of poor managerial appointments took the fall. If there is anything resembling a rescuer to be had today then they are already in-situ. If the abuse becomes personal and spills from social media into real life then this error-prone but fundamentally honest and well-meaning ownership group may become our worst nightmare. They wash their hands of us and League One is the least of our worries.
