It's a transfer window too early for this sort of thing really, but the worst two sides I've seen this year are West Ham and Wigan.

The dullest are the Noses, the softest are Villa.

I've a feeling one of West Brom or Blackpool will revert to type, give up their early promise and fuck off back to where they came from.

Toss a coin as to which one.

Villa, by the way, will be fine. Far, far, far too many good players to worry about relegation....

We have something the others don't.

A few quid in the bank and the ability to attract. Be that players or a manager should it come to it.

Keep yer chins up lads it's only January.

We'll be the jammy team who probably deserve to go down but won't.

However bad we are, there will be three worse or (more likely) unluckier teams than us come May.

The worrying thing for me is it's looking like one of those seasons where you might get relegated on 40 or 41 points like when West Ham went down.

There's still 16 games to go and all the teams are now on 20 points or more so that suggests to me most will make it to 40 points.

Another negative is our goal difference is one of the worst in the league, normally when a big team is down there the goal difference is o.k compared to the rest.

The only positive I can see is we weren't relegated in O'dreary and Ellis's final season when we easily could've been so I can't see us going down under one of the better owners in the league.

Look at the Form table. Ignore our size (remember Newcastle) guess at the remaining results. We go down.

Those of us of a certain age have been here before. I said three weeks ago it smells of relegation and it smells much worse now.

We need immediate and decisive change so the players heads go up, some sensible tactical decisions are made some confidence is restored and the fighting spirit returns.

If Villa Park sees us fighting then they will also shout the rafters out of the place.

We are in a self perpetuating downward spiral and only the sacking of GH and GM will change that.
