I think we will go down. The club are reluctant to change anything and that's going to cost us.

Has the parachute payment for next season gone up as part of this new hyper deal ?

No. The new deal isn't until the season after. We are more likely to be in the third division than to win promotion.

We'll go down unless a change is made. The fans don't deserve the club going down, but the ownership and management of the club definitely do.

That's great. That's just great.

Awful result for Sunderland at home to QPR. They are a Blues side too but have far more heart than ours

We will go down under this manager! If we change now I'd give us a sniff

We need a lift the whole club and that is what a new manager would do

I am sick of listening to ppl say he hasn't had the money! He has had enough to keep us in the league! Every season we have got worse under him! I am genuinely broken this morning

Pulis has gone into Albion made them hard to beat that's the very least you can expect he will keep them up is someone telling me they have better players and squad than us no! It's down to the club it's rotten

I've gone beyond the question of whether we'll be relegated from the PL, now I'm fretting over whether we can hack it in the Championship.

If you consider our recent games against Millwall, Bradford, Sheffield United, Leyton Orient and Blackpool you'll find your answer.

Thank you Lerner your appalling ownership over the last few years is finally going to bury us now.

Two positives from that result for me 1) It drags Sunderland back into it 2) QPR's have registered some points away from home before they come to Villa Park.

I've been in denial about relegation, always thought we'd survive because there should be 3 worse teams than us in the league but last night's results were terrible for us. Also, now we're in the bottom 3, our goal difference starts to take on a whole new significance. Absolutely frightening.

It seems the ultimate irony to me that we unveiled a new Commercial Officer yesterday, presumably with a brief to increase our revenue, (on the same day that the Premier League is handed a £5bn, 3 year deal) but we don't have a manager capable of doing the one thing that would guarantee this massive windfall - staying in the fucking league.

And I also reckon that, until the end of the season, we'd do better with no manager than with Lambert. Seriously.

There comes a time when the presence of a manager becomes poisonous - among the staff, players and fans. I think we're at that point now. There's no way back for Lambert - he must go or our slide will quicken and life will become increasingly unpleasant for everyone. Why can't our absentee owner understand this, or have I answered my own question?

I think there are. I think are five or six teams worse than us in terms of quality. But nobody is playing as badly as we are.
