After the Wolves & Forest results we were 100% done
We have been better since but still think we need 5 wins which unless we beat some teams we aren’t given a chance against will be very difficult 
At a stage where we need favours from others 
Wolves & Burnley have picked up a bit again & need them to be competitive against others around us
Not done yet but need to still be in striking distance after our next 4 which includes Liverpool ,City & Villa

Clutching at straws but Brighton found some form yesterday so might beat Forest. I turned on the WBA vs Cov early game yesterday, it was fucking dreadful, appreciate all games might not be as such but I dread going down to that poxy league. 
I'm looking forward to it. We're not a deep enough squad to lose most of the first team and still coast The Championship so every match will be competitive.
That doesn't even deserve a response.

not saying we deserved any yesterday. We were marginally better than Bournemouth but didn’t do enough. Their keeper made couple of good stops. 

under Moyes quite often we would get results and I would think we didn’t deserve what we got out of the game.

I can’t think of any games we have come away with a result despite playing badly. You don’t get away with that often but throughout a season there are usually several games you pick up a win when not deserving of one. 
Cry me a river. What a load of rubbish.

Forest played us off the park in August, especially in the first half, and we fluked that 0-3 there under pathetic Potter courtesy of three late goals.

Burnley played us off the park at the London Stadium in November I think it was and we were lucky to beat them.

So that's two of our six wins all season for a start.

If you finish 18th or lower after a 38 game season you can't just blame luck FFS.
Don’t worry COYI once you are appointed manager with 6 to go and we stay up it’s Champions league the season after.

The worlds our Oyster.

If Forest win today it will feel that the club's above us are collectively pulling up the ladder.  I'm still hopeful but we are running out of games.

A European Tribunal on Human Rights ruled that the potential distances needed to be covered at the OS to chase down stray balls was too great for minors to be employed without compensation.

Should have hired Mountbatten as an offical child snatcher lurking around the Stadium to get them moving.

Saw somebody say that we need to stay in touch by April when we  have Wolves, Palace, Leeds, Everton, Brentford to play. Sounds about right, but we need to pull something out the bag in other games and we need favours.

The club has one of the biggest revenue streams in world football and the cheapskate cսnt does everything on the cheap. He's an utter wanker and a stain on the club.
Finally you have written something that I agree with.

We're 5th in the form league over the last 6 games doing better than all our relegation rivals Above us Bournemouth, Man U and Chelsea who we've played in that 6 yet we're still 5th . That's some very tough games. So it's not bottling it and not being brave enough in our current form it's the fucking shit show first half of the season

We have improved undoubtedly but not turning good performances into wins and are simply running out of road.

The centre forwards recruited are no Hartson and Kitson and the lack of a cutting edge coupled with our defensive woes last year will ultimately see us relegated.

Poor recruitment over the past two or three seasons has ultimately been our downfall.

40m for Kilman FFS.

Relegation I can take. Relegation with a squad that’s just coming together and playing decent football  (by recent standards) will be harder to swallow. Sullivan will look to asset strip and we’ll be starting from scratch on the cheap

I think it would be a good time to play Villa now, hopefully in four weeks , they will still be off the pace.

if we can win we are still bottom 3

however 
IF both us an Liverpool win by a couple we could be out......
IF Arsenal wake up after dropping points to Wolves......

Then its Game on. 

As I write this Villa Equalise

For now all we can do is try to keep winning.

If these scores stay the same hopefully it inspires us to win then nothing has changed other than we're likely to be closer to spurs.

I've thought it was between us and Forest for a while now, but got a feeling they might find some form too.

Certainly getting no fucking favours off anyone else this season. Quite extraordinary how everyone at the bottom seems to be finding form when they need to.
