We need to get some points on the board but I don't really see where from in the short to medium term. As I've said before it will get worse before it gets better but I do expect us to turn things around after that.

Points from the Scousers and Throstles would be nice but I'm not too sure about either.

The problem is settling into a culture of losing. That's what we had towards the end of DOL's reign. I expect a loss tonight, but if we let the stripeys do us, the habit of losing will be hard to break. We simply have to bring players in during the window. New players with new attitudes.

Should we worry about relegation?

Nope, if Pardew takes over Newcastle...

We need 4 points from the Wigan and baggies game to make things look a bit more comfortable but this is a very depressing end to a year that promised so much isn't it?!

I want to change my vote.

If something doesn't improve, tremendously, then yes.

I don't see how returning players are going to change it that much either

Remember the good old days of having threads ripping into Liverpool being in crisis and heading for relegation? If only we'd have known

He will.

He might.

But if we look all set for a relegation skirmish which decent players will want to join us? It will be Piquionne or similar.

On the plus side, we might actually win a trophy in the Championship.
Could be wrong but I think they still use the same trophy Mortimer picked up in 1981.

It will be nice to be re-acquainted with it again.

Fuck - yes. Big rumours about unrest in the camp.

Their body language shows they don't give a shit.

We're in trouble.
