He's been unbearable for two years now!
And Trixie, I don't think that you're nailed on for relegation by any means. You are however in the uncomfortable position where a sudden burst of competence from one of the teams in the bottom three could leave you in the relegation zone by New Year's, and a bad decision in the transfer market could leave you struggling against that line for the remainder of the year. Again, you may be fine...but there's nothing in your performance thus far to indicate that yours is a false position. A team that aims for low-scoring games owing to a lack of threat up-front and struggles to mount comebacks will turn winnable games into draws, and will sometimes lose to clubs that on paper they have no business losing against.
Indeed, I don't think WHU will go down. I just think they will be in trouble if they don't do something significant in the January window, and they could go down. That doesn't mean that they will, but Twixter latched onto the worst sense of everyone's view.
It was after Osvaldo but Gold seems not to understand that signing £15m strikers for £80k/wk(correct me I don't know???) is a bit different from signing players for £15m on £30-40k/wk, especially so when one of them is out injured and was when he signed.
Your wage bill is the thing crippling you. Transfer fees may look spectacular but our wagebill even now is no where near yours and we aren't paying a fortune to aging nasty little irks like Nolan either.

I think after last night Hughton is in big trouble. A loss at West Brom and I think he'll be gone.
i think a lot of ncfc fans would want this. personally I don't think David Mcnally will pull the trigger quite yet even if we lose to WBA. If he is thinking of doing it, I hope he has someone else in mind and lined up. Not sure who that is though given the current available options.
Yes thats the problem. Who would do a better jo? If he's going to do it you would think it would have to be before Jan 1 to give the new man the window to change things.
Nobody knows what the CEO might do, he sacked Bryan gunn quite ruthlesssly
Phelan? A European manager?
If we lose at WBA which is highly likely we then have Swansea at home
Could be worse we could be bottom 3 now

No one on here suggesting we are relegation fodder....amazing
I was expecting one or two to have started panicking about it.
switch the toaster ON at the wall, then find a metal knife .....

before the internet police do me for enticing a kid into doing something daft, please Trixter don't use a knife
I don't think so.We can afford to keep getting whacked by the top six just as long as we do it against the bottom six.So far we have beaten West Ham,Palace and Stoke with Fulham and Sunderland to come and we are only five points behind Villa in 10th.I think Hughton is safe unless we actually go down or say lost four or five in a row.Our average points haul against bottom half teams is 2 per game.odd because last year we did it against the top sides.
Aren't they all? Getting rid of managers as quickly as Premier League teams do is largely fruitless. If he goes, he'll be replaced (at great cost) by another manager whom some other team sacked within the past few months for a similarly bad run of results. It's quite pitiful and betrays a total lack of understanding of statistics. Bad runs just happen. Then they end. Get rid of a manager towards the end of a bad run and the new guy will, indeed, look like the reason for the change. Doesn't make it so, though; it would have happened anyway.

Yes agree Vin. read an article this morning saying exactly that. The new manager comes in and immediatley brings in a load of new expensive players which is no guarantee of success.
