The worrying thing for me is watching all the other teams fighting down there, maybe bar Cardiff, they all have fight amongst them, prime examples are Sunderland against City and Chelsea, also Norwich against Liverpool, not to mention Fulham's recent run. Whereas we are just in free fall and just do not have an ounce of fight amongst us.
I will be amazed if we score again this season let alone get a precious point.

I would be very surprised if Fulham get a result against Stoke. They will need to score two or three to win the game and I just cannot see them doing that.

Those thinking Fulham can't win their next two games should look at how Sunderland did against Man City and Chelsea. They're playing two mid-table sides with very little to play for, we are definitely not safe yet.

Sunderland haven't conceded the best part of 80 goals and are largely where they are thanks to that whacky fascist giving them 1 point out of their first 21.

Fulham's miraculous run includes beating an awful us and an even worse Norwich, who just about everybody has been beating of late. Fulham shipped two late on against a side supposedly on the beach.

Fulham and Cardiff are gone and given Chelsea's win yesterday, so are Norwich.

Darren Bent scoring the goals to keep them up and send us down would really top the whole season off.

No we're not safe, but it's a safety net to fall back on if we don't pick up another point.

This is what I keep telling myself, but Christ I hope we win Saturday so we don't have to rely on other teams fecking up.

Yep and it would perfectly illustrate the folly of our approach to the 'bomb squad'.

Absolutely. Its a disgrace that we may have to rely on others, but here we are again. Who knows how we will get on next season if things don't change, as with Norwich going down, we're at elast 4/6 points worse off already.

All down to Stoke. Thankfully Hughes has motive after the way he split with Fulham.

Out of all the players that he's got rid of, the two that i'd have kept were Bent and Bannan.

Bent, Bannan and N'Zogbia in our side on Saturday would have massively increased our chances of winning the game.

Pulis would also love to finish the season above Stoke, so I cant see Palace being an easy game for Fulham should they win on Saturday

I fail to see how a fit N'Zogbia would offer less than Holt or Bowery... especially as we are still paying him.
