Think we will know by the end of the window if the club thinks we have a realistic chance of beating the drop. 
If we get a CB and hopefully a new keeper we could still have a chance as we are now getting goals but can't keep them out. If we don't make another signing or two we are done

serious?  The bollocks we'll be left with after being asset stripped in the summer will struggle to stay up. 

Our future?  Read Stoke, Coventry, Sheff Weds, Sheff Utd,  Birmingham, even Luton - and they own their own grounds and don't carry hundreds of millions in debt - we've about found our new level, if we're lucky.

We ain't catching anyone, the positivity on here before yesterday's game, for a team with the worst defence in the league (a league that includes Wolves) is astounding.

We have the shittest centre backs in the league, the best of the 3 is now gonna miss the next 3 games, the keeper can't catch a football. Some of the bollocks I've read on here about our past successesful relegation scraps 20 years ago ffs, beggars belief.

The live table with Forest winning means with GD we are now effectively SEVEN points from safety. We ain't getting out of this now unless Leeds and Palace have a complete meltdown

Frankly at this point we're more likely to catch a Palace potentially in free fall than Forest who have the squad and harmony of environment to pull away.

The problem is the manager. How many games we been ahead and we thrown it away with poor if not plain suicidal tactics.

To Sullivan and co:   If Nuno stays we WILL go down, we are heavily fucked. This old dog ain't learning any new tricks. If we get Harry (yes i know....) or someone else (and I dread to think who else Sullivan would sanction)  in NOW then we have a small chance because no other cսnt throws a game like we did yesterday after we've just played out best half of football in years
Jeez-a-loo! If Nuno is an old dog who ain't learning any new tricks what is 79 year old Harry Redknapp?

Did you not see how it went for him at Q.P.R and Birmingham? The latter was his last job in 2017. Why don't we just exhume the corpse of Joe Kinnear and prop him up in the dugout? 

Once upon a time he was really good as well.
at this point id throw the dice on anyone :)

That just means you sit too deep and wait to get beaten as the defenders get in each others way
Put on ball winners like Magassa & Potts in midfield and try and get some control while breaking up play 
Basic stuff which hasn’t registered with Nuno after endless points thrown away again & again
That's what happened with their winning goal, the ball came through a crowd of players

A decent manager doesn't lose from the winning positions we have been in  games over the past three months.













Absolutely spot on, in a nutshell. And what happened to his counter attacking football when sitting back?? We haven't seen it.

We get ourselves in winning positions and then self destruct as teams come at us.

We sit to deep and invite pressure 

The bottle goes basically and the manager is the biggest culprit with his defensive substitutions.and then we lose the outlet to relieve the pressure and get us up the pitch

The penny never seems to drop with Nuno and we don't have the characters on the pitch to break things up with some dark arts or the like when. teams are starting to overrun us.

A decent manager doesn't lose from the winning positions we have been in  games over the past three months.

We simply do not have the nous to get over the line in these games.

We need a leader on the pitch and a coach that knows the way to win games when ugly.

The recruitment is nowhere near good enough and the way we defend set pieces way short of the standard required.

We have to score three to win games as we always concede and once one goes in we invite the opposition to come at us with our negative tactics.

An absolute shambles of a club and an embarrassment.

Will they ever learn

Not taking at least a point after being 2-0 up into the second half yesterday, blowing a late point against Forest, putting in such an abysmal performance against Wolves (one of the worst sides I’ve ever seen in the Premier League)…it’s a lengthy list. And, frankly, you just can’t do that regularly across an entire season.

YES  - exactly. Teams who survive relegation fights simply dont do this. Not Forest. Not Leeds.

We're fucked.

Despite a slight uplift in form since the very worst days of Pottertegui, I still think we’re going down - because, as others have said, we keep shooting ourselves in the foot and blowing decent positions.

It’s frustrating because this is not a great league this season - there are many bang average, or worse, sides. And more points have been there for the taking. But we’re now 5/6 points adrift of safety and we have just 14 games left.

Any more of this self-inflicted shite and our fate is sealed.

The worst thing about Todibo’s sending off is three more games with Kilman - a walking catastrophe of a defender. I’d be tempted to bin him off for the kid with the Scrabble-winning surname.

Another game like Forest & Villa at home where we should have taken something and ended up beaten
That will relegate you
Burnley away then Man U & Bournemouth at home … has to be 7pts at least
Burnley is an absolute must win obviously 
Think we have about a 20-25% chance of survival and that’s being optimistic 
Feb 1st & no centre half. Utter insanity & now Todibo missing 3.
Sullivan’s genius gets what it deserves again

Meanwhile the woman who almost destroyed Birmingham City and is finishing the job on West Ham is back on tv being presented as a business expert
Irony is dead

As long as Nuno holds his nerve with the same team minus Todibo.
Since when has Nuno held his nerve. If we go one up at half time we’ll come out with some backs to the wall bollocks second half. When have we not ?

Id rather we played with 11.

But if that 11th is kilman, maybe not
