30 points...

[FallowfieldBlade]

No it won’t.

It won’t be 30 but it won’t be 40 either

Us 4 teams look a lot worse than the rest

At least we know we can string a run together if we get our flow back

West Bromwich Albion's 34 points in 2004/05 make them the team with the lowest total to remain in the Premier League

Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s lower than that

It’s closer than the 99 points that were being predicted for survival last year.

We’ll need 38 minimum.

Same shots on target
More passes in attacking third (if you're into that stat)
One more clear cut chance than them
5 saves each

Didn't batter us at all. We lost shape and conceded possession after Didzy went off.

The worrying thing for me is that we have conceded possession in every game this season. I’m pretty sure we weren’t this submissive last season against newly promoted teams, we’ve played 2 and let them have the ball so far.

Liverpool might break their passing record from last season at this rate.

I was thinking that especially without the crowds

.... will be enough to stop up this year west brom, Fulham, Burnley and us seem way below the rest of the teams and will all lose or draw most weeks.

The scary thing is Fulham totally outplayed us on Sunday and a point was daylight robbery if we're honest... But that said we've been a bit unlucky in the other games.

Hopefully brewster comes good and when moose and fleck are back things will start to pick up

I will personally donate £100 to this forum if 30 points is enough to stay up.

You should donate double if it isn't for being dramatic after 5 games.

What's all the fuss we are only 4 places behind man Utd
Man city are in the bottom half
Liverpool 1 point from last 6
It's early days for everyone

Leeds lost at home to wolves tonight
That's them relegated then

Predictable as ever, quote other results, ignore our problems.

I think football is drunk anything can happen we could go win 2 out of next 3 if were on form

Fulham May have been the better team in the second half, but we created the better chances in the first half and could easily have been a goal up before they scored.
Yes we are not playing well but hopefully nothing that a goal and a bit of luck will not solve.

We have problems . But so do other clubs
We are bedding in 7 new players and in first 4 games played without Oconnell and Egan and still only conceded 1 goal in 2 games
And lost by 1 at Arsenal
We aren't far off
Liverpool conceded as many at Villa as we have in 5 games

I’ve seen a lot of excuses for the results so far and not a lot of positive action. This season could easily turn into a drawn out hard luck story of our own making.

Less excuses and more action is what I’d like to see.
