we've had three "six pointers" in our last 3 games, and we've come away with 2 points and no goals scored.

relegation form.

if you can't score in this league, you're going down.

Probably not - we were just as shit in 12-13 and managed to turn it around.

There is so much dross in this league we could have been relegated each of the previous 4 seasons.

I think we will finish with a few more points this year than last based on the defence being a hell of a lot better and there generally being more quality in the squad, despite the manager.

That doesn't escape the fact that people, for a fourth season running, will still more than likely be looking at the fixtures and doing calculations about how many more we need come April.

Its got beyond boring now.

Our ability so far to not concede too many goals is keeping us above water. If that goes we are screwed. Lambert's last throw of the dice is somehow keep that the way it is and add players that even we scored 1 (more) goal a game improves our situation immeasurably. If his latest strategy is to make the defenders just defend and allow midfielders and forwards to attack and create then we should be fine.

Not sure about the 'better defence' argument. What I saw on Saturday was the bottom of the table side ripping us apart. Should have been 4/5 but for woeful finishing.

We need the Darren bent signing in the creative position to keep us up but its not going to happen

Historically the teams who can't score have been relegated in majority of cases , does not make good viewing.We are keeping some very poor company currently.

Don't complain/protest at the Liverpool game though, it might affect the team's performance

If Lambert stays in the job, that is it. We will go down this year.

We deserve to go down and can't see us mounting a come back from this point.

16 games to go so will be 38 points at best on this chronic form. The next few weeks are going to be very difficult to bear

If something doesn't change quick it could well be.
