Guest neesy111 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 If we finish below West Ham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Being within six points of West Ham is worthy of the sack on its own. They are pitiful, and our squad should have a lot more points than it does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 5 points off Man Utd & Everton and both have to come to St James'. Just saying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 5 points off Man Utd & Everton and both have to come to St James'. Just saying. They'll both probably win at St james which will make it 8 points. Also Everton have a game in hand so that could make it 11 points. Just saying.

Guest bimpy474 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 5 points off Man Utd & Everton and both have to come to St James'. Just saying. Which makes our lack of transfers all the more annoying. We miss chance after chance to go that little step further. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 5 points off Man Utd & Everton and both have to come to St James'. Just saying. Effectively 6 with goal difference like. But yeah, just compounds how pathetic our January was. No ambition to build on a decent start whatsoever, just doing the minimum possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 In any case why look up the table at Everton or Man U? Pardew's already written off finishing higher than 8th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Annoying how close we still are to 2011/12 yet have no desire to kick on like we did then - although having said that it was a really scrappy 1-0 that got us on the road to that great run of form (easily Pardews best ever run with Hatem instrumental to it but ho hum). If we wanted to 6th is still up for grabs, 7th is definitely on as Everton are stuttering and Man U now have Champs League returning, both of which are potentially Europe bearing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 http://i.imgur.com/F5jHYhx.png That's the table Garth Crooks and co look at when they tell us Pardew is doing a good job this year. This is the one they should look at... http://i61.tinypic.com/30xh4jo.jpg Scraped survival by the skin of our teeth last year...but we were still outscoring this years shambles. The quality in the league is dreadful. 14 teams (maybe 13) whose only aim is not to lose games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 It's also the table you would have looked at a couple of months ago when telling us Pardew is doing a good job this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 On one hand, we've played all the teams above us away from home now and we also have a game in hand. On the other, I've been telling anyone who would listen that I can count on one hand the number of times we've played well in the past 2-3 months. While the last 3 away games (Liverpool, Spurs (really don't think they're very good so that was particularly galling) and Chelsea) have firmly ended any hopes of properly getting anywhere this season, the problems were there beforehand. Injuries are a factor but that's not the reason. Ultimately we've become predictable recently, not pushed on in the transfer window - yet again - and now are settled with scraping around for an EL place. Good-o!

The College Dropout Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Who do we have as winning the league? I already reckon Arsenal will win it. If they can make it through to Jan 2nd with 14 points or more (out of 21) they'll be in a strong position. If they can get 17-18+ they might run away with it. Think Arsenal only managed 11 or so points in that period. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
