So I've gone and got myself a ticket....

Mad that the club want to charge £65 for.a Wednesday evening kick off to the leagues bottom club...

Paid the devil and went with seat unique, extra £8 for a £10 food and drink voucher and a programme...

Get a small bottle of whiskey put it in a plain bottle and take it in with you, you may need it but I hope not.
 
Should win it. If we do 7 points out of 12 for the current run of 4 winnable games isn't great and not terrible. Nothing a couple of full backs and more strength in depth around the squad wouldn't sort out. Anyway, UTFT, win this blues.
Yeah, I think 7 out of 12 is passable in the circumstances. We were never getting the full 12 with the absentees we knew we'd be without. However, that 7 out of 12 really has to be followed by cup progression. For the morale of the club it is essential we have something to play for as 7/12 probably means the chance to make Europe has passed. Yeah, we'd still be in with a chance if we beat Wolves, but we've passed up on a huge opportunity to really make ground in that race (playing three of the four worst sides in the league and a Brentford side who had lost seven out of eight on the road). We'll not make those points up against the "proper big clubs" (c) the Moyesiah.

I'm seeking solace in that it's still better than last year, and it's probably par for what we should have expected at the start of the season. I think we are a 9-12th position team and anything more is great and anything less is not great. Mediocrity is boring but it is an improvement on the previous few seasons of looking at avoiding relegation rather than looking up the table and how to improve.

My big complaint it that every non-rubbish season feels like it is a transitional season that we don't capitalise on for decades now.

I am sure this is totally off-topic for the match thread! Don't lose and the misery will dissipate and reckless optimism return.
 
Let's get this won, Moysie.

These will be really up for it. Their last 3 away games - Arsenal, the RS and United - have all been close games. Furthermore, I question if we've got it in us to bounce back quickly.
We showed last week that we could bounce back from a great performance at Forest to being an absolute shambles at home to Brentford, so maybe we will see a completely different performance again against Wolves.
