well this would be a good week to start a great escape

Leicester ,QPR and Burnley are main 3 relegation contenders all play man City, Arsenal and Liverpool

I know it doesn't always work out to plan, but I cant see any of them getting much out of those games

I noticed that too. Even a point against Olbiyun will probably see us out of the bottom 3. Win at Sunderland in next league game and we could be 16th.

The problem with this is those pesky impossibilities like "winning" or even "getting a point"

...or 'scoring a goal' - whatever that means

I reckon we will beat Albion on Tuesday and then draw in the cup game, giving us a brilliant chance of getting out of it all, but still think we will go down, and much like Ads, I am not fearful or worried by it any more.

I actually disagree with the notion Sherwood has to go if we do go too, I think he will bring us back first time, he has a coaching team who know the division and is the type of character that will see it as an opportunity. 3-4 of our players know that division well, supplemented with encouraging displays from a couple of the lads out on loan. 2-3 of the right signings and we would have a decent chance of coming back up, while re-building confidence and getting shut of some of the players that are not up to it.

Rotherham, half empty Villa Park, midfield hatchet men kicking the shit out of pansies like Westwood and big fuckers dominating us at set pieces as Gabby and Weimann row zed everything up front, doesn't sound appealing to me.

Some think we'll get to win loads of games if we go down.  I suggest they have a look at Wolves and a number of other clubs who thought that.

I don't think anyone has used the word 'loads'. But one would be nice. I simply can't believe you would prefer going months without a win and the rest of the footballing world taking the piss out of our 'Month of the Goal Competition'.

We don't win any games now and haven't really done so or 4 years. If we do stay up and Lerner stays we'll be right back here next season. We said the same a year ago and until Lerner fucks off it won't change.

I don't want us to get relegated at all but im also sick to the back teeth of annual humiliation in the PL.

Lerner looked ill when he was photographed at Bodymoor the other week.

Dropping into the Championship will devalue the club by some way, which I reckon will delay him from selling us.

He strikes me as the type of guy who'd hold on to the hope that we'd bounce right back.

I hope we do, as we really do not want to be a Forest.

Face it - we are going down - we can't score goals and give stupid goals away - PLUS we are unlucky !

Teams that get relegated suffer from 'bad luck' - it's a relegation tell tale  sign.

UTV - whatver the weather.

We are a point ahead of my predicted points target at this stage.

All the results have gone our way this week.
Didn't realise that Everton are down there, too.
Although I don't think they'll get into to much trouble, the way they're tumbling it could be worrying times.

I would love the Baggies to hit a bit of a rough patch now.
