    Who's the happier ?

    I love supporting my team. We've been through some **** over the last decade or so, but I've always supported my team. I was never one of those Wenger out people either (which caused untold **** on our board <laugh>) My philosophy has always been then your team needs you even more when things aren't going well.

    Too easy to lap it up when the trophies are coming in, but the real measure of a fan is how much they support their team when the chips are down.

    Reckon this is another false dawn for you lot myself. Apart from Leicester who've been a bit dodgy you've not beaten anyone decent.

    Best teams other than them probs Palace and Brighton and you should have lost both.

    Back in midtable by new year. Bookmark it <ok>

    We've got some tough games coming up after the Int break including Liverpool away and Man Utd away, so we're likely to drop some points along the way. I think if we can stay up and around the top 6 places by Christmas, then we're in decent enough shape.

    Bold stuff here from Libby.

    Not sure myself tbh, they’ve gone from looking absolutely dire to not bad, we’ll see where they truly are after the ****ing annoying international ****e.

    Yeah we've had a ****ing mare there for years. Even at their absolute ****test we've still managed to find a way to **** it up. So it's defo a banana skin for us. I'd bite your arm off for a point at Anfield right now. We also have to play West Ham as well as Everton away and Leeds away as well as your lot, all before xmas.

    If we're somewhere in and around 6th I'll be happy with that and I'll rinse your midtable comment. If we're in midtable then I will conveniently gloss over it <ok>

    Yeah would be just our luck that they appoint somebody like Ten Hag and play out of their skins to try and impress the new gaffer.

    Who have Utd got next ? Might have to cheer them on to keep Ole at the wheel for a few more weeks. <ok>

    Bastard them having the Chavs away before they play us as they'll get battered there. Could be the final nail in the coffin for Ole that.

    Whatever happens over those three games though, you'd have to be thinking that the Utd board are sounding out a replacement ?

    I think they’re already sorting his replacement tbh, once they’ve secured him then they’ll pull the trigger. The manager and training staff aren’t good enough for that squad that’s been obvious for long enough.

    Yeah that's what I mean, I think that process is already under way. Let's hope that don't get it sorted until after 2nd Dec <ok>
