As things stand, we are 4 points off 17th place.

It's not so much that that concerns me, as the momentum of the way things are currently.

  Bent and Keane and Gabby on the pitch at the same time away from home against a physical side.   

AM is truly awful.   Worse than Billy Mac IMO.

It is really soul destroying how terrible we have become at least in the 2nd half of last season we signed bent in january so it looked like we were turning around and on a positive upward trend again. This year we sign a clearly off the pace Robbie Keane on loan for two months.

I honestly do not know at this present moment if we have the fight to stay up, I think we have the players just not the bottle for the scrap. I just hope there are 3 worse teams than us so we stay up, but it really is unforgivable how bad we have become.

The worst thing about all this is that Lerner probably doesn't give much of a shit, and Faulkner probably thinks things are going quite well.

Any struggling team must be looking for when they play Villa. We're a complete shambles on and off the pitch. One of the few teams who Wolves have kept a clean sheet against, can't defend set pieces, and no creativity or bite in midfield. Mick McCarthy must be relishing this and has got his team well up for it. I'm really starting to fear the worst

Pointed out earlier, Wolves are not a good side and will be fighting relegation and in spite of the fact that MM made changes the other night he made those changes for seasoned players, players with in a lot of cases double figure appearances under there belt, they didn't use the cup game to blood new players and Blues made them look ordinary.

In contrast Villa are making players like Keightly look world class.

Lets not forget Wolves could easily be 4 or 5 up.

The Chelsea game was the most important moment. McLeish even said, it means nothing if we don't win against Swansea. Since we have drawn, luckily after the first half display, against Everton, lost to Swansea, and losing today. Hes gorra go!

We are a shambles no ability to hold on to a football at all what the fuck do they do in training.Frigpong is singlehandly handing the midfield an ass kicking.Petrov just has not got the legs especially in a 4-4-2

Missing Ireland and even Nzogbia thier 2 wingers are murdering us time and time again and some of the defending that lead to thier second goal from Dunn and Collins was truely dire

We lose this I can see us going down.5 wins all season it a shocking return

AMC has had some difficulties with players leaving etc but we look just like Blues did last season its not just the players its him

What worries me is that in a dogfight you look to your senior pros to inspire and to scrap to get you out of it. Heskey, Dunne, Collins, Warnock, Petrov, Bent, Gabby would I guess be our senior pros. 3 out of the 7 couldn't give a fuck, 1 of them is a laughing stock, Bent isn't really someone who you look to to inspire others so that leaves Petrov and Gabby.
