Protest? Not in my name...the football match is the main event

We seem to have spent the past 18 months saying we're in a relegation battle without ever having been in one.

[Jimmy Smash]

The table doesn't lie. Things ain't looking good.

We seem to have spent the past 18 months saying we're in a relegation battle without ever having been in one.

Difference is last season we spent 30 million quid and the club was filled with positivity, this year we've gone into February with low confidence a manager most don't want and a team that is a shambles. Yes shambles is where we will be when Keane how back.

We are 7 points off relegation unless we get something tomorrow and I have no confidence in our manager to keep us up, our only hope is that the players step up to the plate, because they are good enough.

7 points above 16th-18th, considerably better goal difference and a (admittedly tough) game in hand. Doesn't look like we're doomed to me.

[Shoody]

We definitely are. If we get four wins in a row after Man City then I will be feeling okay about it.

After those four games we have some very hard games.

Our best chances of points being Stoke at Home, WBA away, Sunderland at home and Norwich away.

Stoke will likely be a draw.
WBA away will be a tough game imo but they've only got 8 points at home this year. (Only Wigan are worse at Home)
Sunderland all depends on how up for it the defence are imo being vs MON. But on form we'll get trounced.
Norwich are doing fantastically well, last game of the season. We'll need win more than them. Hard though.

Other than that we play all the big boys. After City I truly think we have four games to save the season

[Dave Clark Five]

a manager most don't want and a team that is a shambles.

Again. An anti-McLeish person having to tell everyone how many similar clowns there are. It is the day before a game against the 2nd team in the league. Show some fucking support!

Glad you're so confident.

Nobody's saying we're doomed but given the negativity inside and outside of the club there is a very real chance that we will be sucked into a relegation battle. If that's becomes the case what do we all think about AM's capacity to get us clear?

[Somniloquism]

Depends what you class as within one. Some might define being three points above relegation with two games to play being within the battle.

The negativity outside the club has been caused by traitors who purport to be 'inside' the club. If you support the club, fight the negativity instead of being herded along with those who thrive on it.

And some might not. The results which would have seen us relegated were something like 11,000/1 to occur. We also finished in the top half of the table.

14 games to go, a point per game and we'll be safe. this ain't the time for a protest

[Dante Lavelli]

Does anyone else think that the protesters and the general "meh" of the fans is a bigger problem that McLeish? 

I'm confident the players would be playing better if the pressure on them from the fans was less negative and more supportive.  For that reason alone the protests are counter productive without even beginning to question their justification.

Spoken like a true fan.
