Yep it's 5 times.

Once in the 30s, once in the 50s, once in the 60s, once in the 70s and once in the 80s.

Anorak intact......

This is a bit of a strange thread last few pages. It's like people who are showing disappointment at other teams not getting the results that we would expect on paper and understandably being concerned about us going down are being treated like idiots. All a bit harsh. The teams around us have picked up some very impressive results, no one thought Hull would go and beat Palace and Liverpool which has put us right back in the nasty seat. Ex have the most in form side in the county this week at home, who have beaten us more often than not last few seasons at Villa. Hardly a turn up that some might feel a bit gloomy about it all.

If Leicester beat Chelsea or even draw and I will start to feel more pessimistic

I actually fancy them to lose narrowly despite a valiant effort and then struggle against Newcastle where everyone thinks they will win.

This is my worry, Leicester to beat Chelsea and then lose their game at Sunderland

Dock them points for fielding a weakened team! About 20 should do it...

Arsenal are in great form and Mourinho isn't the type to take the foot off so close to securing the title. I certainly see both of them winning and at worst Leicester getting a point because of form/home team. I think Sunderland might take a kicking because we know once they concede it can go shit shaped fast, home or away.

Ex have the most in form side in the county this week at home, who have beaten us more often than not last few seasons at Villa. Hardly a turn up that some might feel a bit gloomy about it all.

I think almost completely the opposite. A handful of posts asking people to get a bit of perspective against pages of doom & gloom. The form guide still shows us as better than the teams around us, even AFTER Hull got a 1-0 win against a Liverpool side who failed to show up. Of course we should be worried, but people have gone from believing WE are playing well enough to stay up, to believing every side around us will get maximum points til 24th May. It's extremes Oz - it drives me mad.

There's a chance we'll go down. The result last night didn't help, but it was one result, and it wasn't ours. We are still playing well and one of the most in form sides at that end of the table. I'm not calling anyone an idiot, just trying to inject some positivity, because negativity breeds and helps no-one. (#fightlikelions ;)

Not sure how it's harsh pointing out to someone who kept saying it was out of our hands even if we won all 4 games that no matter how often they say it it is wrong.
Or pointing out that while last night wasn't the result we wanted nothing has actually changed as we are still the same number of points from the bottom 3. WE still need to win the same number of points as we did before the Hull game kicked off, so I don't get why the panic button was suddenly hit.

We can blame ourselves for Liverpool being shit , being them in the cup semi seems to have destroyed them.Liverpool fan I know says they have been awful in both games since , I watched last nights game and they were dismal.Still they probably would have gotten away with another bore draw if it wasn't for Balotteli's awful positioning playing Turner onside.

A few people developed a case of the collywobbles several weeks ago. We didn't need that then and we don't need it now. We're above the bottom three, we're in form and we have very winnable games remaining. Be positive, get behind the lads and stop talking us down into the Championship, please.
