There's a long way to go yet, but if we don't get shot of fat head we're in deep bother.

 

There’s absolutely nothing to suggest we will get rid of him any time soon. Ashley probably thinks he’s doing a great job

Fulham have done winnable games coming up. If they close the gap he'll be getting edgy.

There seems an inevitability about it. Like with the Mackems when they went down

 

They were in the relegation spots for basically the entire season - highest position was 16th after wk3. Rock bottom for more than two-thirds of the season, including the last fifteen weeks. It’s really not the same.

It may not be this season, we may scrape survival 2015 style, but I have said this even in the rafa days: as long as Mike Ashely owns the club it’s only a matter of when, not if, we get relegated again. The lack of ambition and investment has already bit us twice, and it will bite again.

I think we’ll have enough but by God, maybe bar Sheff Utd, we’re the worst team in the league by a mile! The squad certainly isn’t which says it all!

 

Fulham have been very unlucky when I’ve seen them whereas most of our points have came via our keeper and the luck of Bruce as per last season!

I think you'll find that at the time of writing, we were only the 6th worst team in the league by a mile.

To those people who think we'll have enough - where's our next goal coming from, let alone point?

We're not just going to lose every game from now till the end of the season, football just doesn't work like that.

 

For everyone who is praising Fulham, and even I have been impressed with their recent form they're still on 12 points with 1 game left to play before we're halfway through the season.

 

If Bruce doesn't go I think there's a reasonable chance we'll go down, but I wouldn't think it's a certainty as the teams in the bottom 3 don't win enough games for me.

I'm still interested to know where our next goal is coming from? We have 2 shots on target per game (3 against Sheff united admittedly). Wilson averages 0.75 shots on target per game, the next highest is Jacob Murphy :lol:

 

I get that we're going to get the odd point, maybe a few 0-0's will be enough. I'm asking where the goals are going to come from for those confident of picking up some wins. Dodgy penalties?

Dodgy penalties is a good shout. Loadsa bodies in the box scramble. A punt forward that the defenders don't deal with. A set piece/penalty. Some kind of unlikely pinger from distance that Ritchie or Murphy or Shelvey catches just right.

 

We're dreadful and, at the moment, the players look to have lost some of their fight - but we'll score another 18 or 19 goals between now and the end of the season, somehow. There's never been any logic to our points collection/goalscoring under Bruce up to this point; occasionally something just clicks but most of the time it's just been a law of averages thing.

Do you seriously think we won't win again until the end of the season? As has been said, we are a terrible team but football doesn't work like that. We've had similar horrendous performances under Bruce and then stepped it up slightly in subsequent games. We'll do so again. We weren't great against Liverpool and Arsenal (FA cup) and yet if one of our strikers had put their chances away we'd have won both.

That's right, I don't think we'll win again this season. I think we'll get 5 draws and the rest losses.

Stats don’t lie, we are terrible, will we win again? Difficult to see where but maybe twice at the most .

 

For once I don’t want us to lose or blow this as I 100% expect this takeover to go through before the end of the season, we MUST stay in this league or we may never get back, it’s that serious.
