    Well I try to see it from other angles and even been accused of being a ""happy clapper, I'm not a pessimist, just a realist and after today result the reality is we are in deep trouble.

    Hope..there is always hope....

    Ok Smug, you and the malt are making me see a bit of hope - believe me you are a miracle worker and should be at Samaritans.

    We have Southampton, Palace, West Ham, Stoke, Hull, West Brom, Swansea, Cardiff to play at home.

    None of the bottom sides are putting together any phenomenal run.

    We're already active in the transfer window.

    Our next game is at Fulham then we have Southampton and Stoke at home.

    We've taken 5 points from the last 4 games, more than one point per game.

    It's not all bad mate <ok>

    No mate, mellowing as the result drifts away, realistically we are shafted, however I accept there are reasons for hope after taking into consideration the points of others.

    A tree can change its leaves but still keep its roots.

    Ha Ha, yep!

    Nothing wrong with bipolar though, I have it. In fact, I wouldn't change it for the world. The highs I feel is like nothing out of this world. I'm on 400mg of Quetiapine (anti-psychosis) cos when I go to the other end of the scale, I'm a ****ing lunatic <laugh>

    Gus better buy big and I mean massive, take the gamble, we have no wingers now, and need two strikers pronto and a new defence, and a clear out. We are the worst team after that performance we just kid our selves each season.

    My maths says we need a minimum 9 wins from 18 to go with the odd draw or to.
    You've listed 8 teams above so if we beat them all who will be the ninth & what happens if we don't beat Southampton just like Villa?

    9 wins means 27 points and we already have 14 which makes 41 points ........... your maths are way out.

    I reckon 36/37 will be enough to stay up.

    6 wins and 5 draws out of 18 games. Can we get them?
