    But I thought according to you lot it was corruption and conspiracy and that luck has nothing to do with refereeing decisions???

    It is all coincidence, human error etc and that's all it is in my opinion. Admittedly you've had the **** end of the stick lately but it will change in your favour at some point even if it doesn't get fully evened out so to speak.

    I mean look at Danny Graham tonight, first goal in 30 odd games and it's against Swansea. It's simply the weird and wonderful way of the footballing gods. As are refereeing decisions.

    players have happy hunting grounds, read on fyassbook the he has scored 12 in 28 appearances at the liberty and 5 in 67 elsewhere.

    refereeing this season across the whole of the premiership has been well below par, every week there are more than one dodgy incident and i'm not just on about us although we have had our fair share.

    It needs looking at one way or another, there is too much at stake

    Completely agree that massive improvements are needed fella. Been some horrific decisions of late, for me Swansea have survived to stonewall penalty claims in their last two games. You then have your lot and all the **** you've had to put up with etc plus loads more.

    I just don't think that any clubs are targeted by a refs in general. I'm not saying that there isn't a referee that hasn't taken a back hander, just that if he did it wouldn't constantly be against the same team.

    Hull on the slide? Why, to be fair probably only Palarse at home we shouldn't have lost, apart from that we've lost away to Arsenal and Southampton, Drew with Swansea and beat you and Liverpool at home if we continue in that vain we will stay up. Our 8 away games have all been against sides in the top 10 too

    Re the above;

    You've started losing games and your early form is dropping off. Bruce teams always have a mid season slump ( trust us we know)

    Chelsea Spurs southampton Newcastle man city arsenal Everton still all to come to the KC. I think your far more likely to go down than Swansea so wanted Swansea to win.

    If wed swapped home fixtures upto now i think wed be in.very different positions

    Still think Hull will go down but we will be going down with them.

    We just got our 4th point away, beat Liverpool at home and only lost to Arsenal in between. I'm not bigging us up, we need points now as they will get harder to come by, and I do think a corner will turn for you at some point. I just think us being in a slump is a bit of a myth, we've been fairly consistent, we were poor at home to Palace and you in the second half and Southampton away otherwise I feel we've done ok in every other game, for our resources anyway, we miss Aluko as he is our only player who could open up defences. But if we were to lose Davies, or Huddlestone we'd be in big trouble

    Bruce was famous for his January to May slumps mate, as he had two almost disastrous ones resulting in 2 near relegations for us under his charge. Our patterns under Bruce are almost identical to yours - great start and out of the blocks early, leading to hope that a top 10 charge was on, only to fall away badly in the last 20 games to near relegation form.

    There is no guarantee it will happen to you of course but he did the same at Wigan too. He cant hack 38 games at this level.

    I think thats bollocks. Surely, it is harder to beat the likes of Chelsea, Man City, Spurs, Arsenal, Newcastle, Everton at home than it is away. You have still to visit these teams if I am not mistaken.
