Teams worse than us?

[TheBigSausage]

If we have less than 20points by Christmas we will be ****ed.. Cardiff , Huddersfield , Fulham , Brighton , Southampton and us .. Flip a coin .

If Fat Pig doesn't straight up spend some decent dough (£20m+) in January on a striker that scores, we're gone.

If he sells Lascelles, we're gone.

If Dubby gets injured, we're gone.

We'll need 20pts by New Year (not necessarily Xmas). The further we are from that, the more he'd have to spend as soon as that window creaks open. No deadline day sh'it. If he's mincing around, Rafa goes and that won't help.

Fact of the matter is that we are in the worst three teams so it doesn't matter who is worse than us. We are worse than pretty much everybody else. You need money to fix that because as it stands, we are clearly not good enough to stay up.

Agree with your assessment Zip.

If we get a striker who can score in Jan, i reckon we can still be ok.

IF we don't we're ****ed and i think probably down.

It'll be between us, Saints and Brighton for 3rd spot. Although agree about Palace, if they lose Zaha then i put them straight in mix with us.

The funny thing is, we need our 'Zaha' to make us greater than the sum of our parts like he does to them and, having said they'd be in trouble without him, that's effectively where we are.

hi everyone...
as you are atmo you have to ensure that Cardiff or huddersfield are below you, after that there's possibly 3 others ( too early to say who imo), lets wait til crimbo the we'll see the icing on the cake i reckon!
am fairly sure your problem does not lie with the passionate support you give and your manager has a good degree of nous and experience!
you will have to invest in your current squad for sure! or its going to the line, fact!

biggest problem with a weak squad is when the injuries set in....

stay safe and be lucky now
john.

Last season,one of the reasons we stayed up was beating the teams around us.In the next few weeks we will find out exactly where we are this season.
