I'm not convinced we will stay up, today's performance showed that we are very weak

I think we'll stay up, but mostly because there are so many other teams in the shit and we have a far better goal difference. As long as we pick up as many points as possible at home we'll be fine.

And when will we get that rest? By that time it could be too late.

If you haven't noticed our home form has been poor, too. We couldn't even beat Portsmouth and they're in a worse run of form than us! By the end of next weekend I fully expect us to be in the bottom three again.

Bolton were in a poor run of form and we lose to them in such a massive game.

There's still all to play for, but it's time to get real and realise we are crap. with no sign of getting better.


We'll get that rest next week and when the next round of the F.A cup is played, also if we get knocked out of the Ueafa cup in the next round.

And yes, as a season ticket holder i have noticed that our home form has been poor, however our performances at home have been much better, we outplayed and outfought Stoke on Tuesday and before that it was only a great performance from Judas and James at the back for Portsmouth that denied us all three point, and both those players went into that game fired up and with a point to prove.

If we play like we have done against Stoke and Portsmouth then i fully expect us to win the majority of our games left at home.

If football was an 80min game we would easily stay up and probably would have been competing for the league for the past 4 years.. the amount of goals weve conceded after 80mins is unbelievable!!

*sigh*

Supporting Spurs can be very difficult at times. We are points ahead of the bottom team now I think.

We have played a game more than three teams below us, who are a point behind us.

We have got to stop conceeding sloppy late goals.

Looking forward to the game against the scum next weekend. Crowd is gonna be vital.

The important thing for us is that we make sure we are safe before the last game of the season.

I am seriously worried now we have Arsenal next then Hull away, then we dont play till the 4th of march by which point we could be rooted to the bottom.

I think realisticaly we need to win 5 games to stay up, when you look at our remaining fixtures thats not going to be easy

So we have got 5 points from our last 7 games against the easier teams.. If we continue at this rate we will accumulate a total of 10 points from our remaining 14 fixtures giving us a total of 34 which will almost certainly condemn us to relegation (considering birmingham and reading made 35 and 36 respectively last season)..:sad:

As angry as I am about todays result, would there have been this big a reaction, if we'd got a draw today? If we drew we'd only be a point better off and in the same position as we are in now.

We need to start winning soon, 6 wins out of 14 should be enough, I just pray that we can get some results.

completely agree. There are just too many shit teams in this league for us to go down

completely agree. There are just too many shit teams in this league for us to go down

But these shit teams have all got results against us, so we are not too good to go down:

West brom (-3pnts)
Middlesborough (-3pnts)
Newcastle (-3pnts)
Portsmouth (-4pnts)
Sunderland (-3pnts)
Hull (-3pnts)
Fulham (-4pnts)
Stoke (-3pnts)(3pnts)
Bolton (-3pnts)(3pnts)

Blackburn (3pnts)

Will we go down? If that is the question, i think the answer is "Yes" we will go down. We don't win enough games.

We will narrowly survive, but it will be humbling and embarasing. Yet another 'transition season' awaits next season.:bang:

As always your entitled to your opinion but you are wrong.

We are not scoring more points than these so called shit teams so we have every chance of going down.

On paper, yes, we have a better team than anyone in the bottom half but based on performances we are down there with the worst of them im afraid.

But if you look at our points total before harry took over then we are gaining more points than them at the moment.

We will stay up for F'ing hell!! We just need to keep on playing like those 10/15 min after chimbs came on. If we play with that passion we will kick everyone his arse... damn it.
