    It cant be black and white if its an opinion.

    Why do people on here write "in my opinion" then come up with absolute statements as though their opinion is fact?

    You think we will go down

    You think all the players are rubbish (even fletcher? and inlcuding the new players who havent had more that 7 games under 1 manager? - you cant judge players that quickly, including Ki)

    You think all is lost

    I think you are wrong, so it cannot be black and white, cos opinions include, not only shades of grey but all the colours that exist.

    IMHO we have overall an average team which is underperforming, we should be mid-table. We sold a better than average goalkeeper Mig and a better than average midfielder Sess. Looking at the half a dozen first teamers brought in atm only Giac looks class. A big problem that has not been solved is if Fletcher is missing we do not have a replacement. Graham and Altiadore have been bought on the cheap and are frankly not good enough.

    If Poyet can tighten up the defence and get Fletcher gets match fit we should start to get a few points. Having an average team still means we are better than many others...but we have to get the results to prove it.

    I feel your pain kidda and yes I want to believe but this is no blind faith.

    I see Fletcher, Altidore, Giacherinni, Johnson, Ki, Cattermole and I see good players to firm a spine of a team. I see Gardner, Celustka, JOS, Roberge, Diakite, Larsson, Cabral, Westwood and I see players well able to support that spine.

    If I thought they were ****e is be the first to say it how it us mate. I don't do pussy footing when it comes to opinion but I genuinely do think with Poyets footballing background and beliefs he can fashion a silk purse out of the pigs ear we have to work with here.

    Give him the next 10 games and I think you will see a turnaround of results. If by January we are still bottom and 6+ points adrift then maybe I will concede but not with 93 points to play for I won't. Neither will Poyet either thankfully.

    FTM kidda.
