Embrace the Reality

Brighton is a must win.

Must not lose I'd say.

We need 4 or 5 points.

..I guess we got beat today.

That's a safe bet any away day.

Remember when people thought we were capable of getting 7th.

Yesterday

Maybe. It’s difficult to be positive about just taking a point at home to Brighton but we are in big diffs now.

I’m at it as well for my sins.

Let’s be pragmatic now and sack Sam tonight and get the new manager bounce

But those teams below might get a surge in fortunes

Sorry TT but you can only get 3 points max for a win, no RS anything to win tactics on our side ha.

We play City and Liverpool in 2 of our next 3 at home.

We also have Brighton, Newcastle & Southampton to go. If we can't even manage 6 points from those 3 then we deserve to go down, NEA.

 

[Berenger]

All the teams below us turning it on until the end of the season would require the top six collapsing. Otherwise they are playing each other so they can't all take points. It's still hairy but it's in our hands.

Well, that's the issue.

And we’ve just lost to Watford and Burnley, with relative ease

Good to see where we rank on the BBC radar. Show introduced with one of the headlines 'Burnley finally get a win' no mention of us and our worst away record in the league in the intro to 606.

2014/2015 Martinez.

We were 6 points above Burnley.

It's genuinely going to be pretty squeaky for us in the run in. We must beat Brighton.

I give you my promise, if we get beat by Brighton I will hunt.

The end result from buying players from below you is this. We sign relegation battle players and end up with a relegation battle manager and wonder where we went wrong.

Whilst binning off a European finalist captain, future athletico Madrid striker, 19 year old Croatia international (not checked that), tell a striker from the champions league he isn't good enough after a week.

The reality is, you sign from crap clubs as a transfer policy, you end up here. I was told I was wrong last year when I mentioned it and yet here we are, fielding the best of relegation battles 2014-2017 and the player formerly known as rooney. With honorary manager Mr relegation battle himself.

We might even go into the game below them.
