Agreed, we’re clearly just toying with them.

I'm so angry right now I want to kick a cute furry animal.

This is shaping up to be a new low in a complete cow pat of a season. Have our fans at the game got any enthusiasm left to turn toxic?

But the fist pumping, the fist pumping!

So essentially this but with a drone produced replica of the original Ted Bates statue in the sky above St Mary’s instead? That would be mesmerising!

Screw the lineups, when does the light show start and is there a stream!

Can't believe all the Alex Crook hating on here. He's an A grade journalist. He's got friends in every town and village from here to the Sudan, he speaks a dozen languages, knows every local custom, he'll blend in, disappear, you'll never see him again, until he comes up with that exclusive transfer article.

It is bleak, no question. The only comfort to cling onto is that we currently have seven clubs above us with between one and five more points on the board. At present we have to outscore Wolves by two points and both West Ham and Nottingham Forest by three points over more than half a season to stay up. That's certainly not impossible, especially if we grab a win by any means possible tomorrow night (which could potentially make up that shortfall immediately). I'm trying to stay positive.

If you look at things very simply, West Ham in 17th are currently averaging 0.82 points per game. If that continues then they would end up with only ~32 points, meaning we "ONLY" need ~20 more points to stay up (7 wins). Highly unlikely that things continue that way but I guess it underlines that there are some really garbage teams in the Premier League this year and that a very low total may keep you up.

It's almost as if the hierarchy expected us to do well against Brighton and Fulham and didn't therefore anticipate the desperate situation we would find ourselves in had that not been the case. Much like the Titanic, we are probably now trying to rapidly rectify the situation, but it's probably too late.

But, but, but he's ARGENTINIAN, they won the World Cup so he must be AWESOME!

Reacting to and quoting this post to get you all excited for no reason whatsoever.

Enjoy the lightshow if you’re going, it’ll probably be better than the shiteshow that will follow it!

I think this is very positive, it’s great to know we’re better than Crewe and Gillingham.

He must have thought he was on to a good thing when we beat Brentford 4-1 in his first game.

I’m not giving up (yet). If we somehow beat Forest then we should be out the bottom three. Then everything depends on the transfer window as we’re doomed without some major firepower being added.

Brilliant save, what a keeper!

Happy New Year, there’s a kick in the bollocks to get the party started.

Que 2-1 defeat!

That season was full of 2-2 draws. I can’t remember when we last scored twice.

I actually like the look of that (well, as much as I can given current circumstances).

I think I’d struggle to assemble a five-a-side team from our squad with that criteria!

Just seen the highlights and my god was it depressing. > Shit goalkeeping > Shit defending > Crap penalty > Dreadful pitch > Loads of empty pink seats > Awful kit Apart from that, very good.

Exactly, such negativity here. You just never know, we could squeak a 1-0 win against City reserves and then stand a great chance of losing to Charlton in the semi final.

Fuck me, we could have played the quarter final during this wait.
