Best odds down from 50/1 on Sat to 28/1 tonight.

10 points from 14 games but it's all looking a bit Eric Black to me

i'd take another new manager bounce; He may be as bad as bruce but we could just stay up on a few good results  at the start of his reign

Annoyed I didn't take 50-1, we were never going to win tonight. Oh well, fifty quid at 28-1 means at least I'll have paid for my holiday if the worst happens.

This team and manager look like they could pull a relegation out of the bag. I cant beleive this is an actual possibility this year, but it is. Jesus.

We've played 9 teams twice and recorded a single win against Cardiff. 1 win in 18 matches against average championship teams.  Relegation staring us in the face yet again

I'm genuinely worried.  Especially looking at the fixtures we have left.
I know it's sacriligious but we're 25/1 to be relegated.

Ah yes, the comforting familiarity of a relegation battle. The really concerning thing for me is that, Newcastle aside, the teams we've lost to in this run have been mid/lower table teams. Despite the oft repeated cliche that anyone can beat anyone in this league the top 6 this season all look pretty consistent. We've still got to play four of them, two before the next international break.

The key games are against our fellow strugglers so Bristol City and Rotherham are absolutely crucial. Two wins and we can breathe easier. Failure to beat Rotherham will be concerning as pretty much everyone does. Failure to beat City as well leaves us really staring down the barrel.

In massive trouble now , don't see where a win is coming from.The team is not a team just a bunch on individuals we have zero link up play and the defence is all over the place.

Extremely concerened, got to take some points from Derby/Bristol/Rotherham, fail in those fixtures and I think we're heading into League 1, anyway got to get to work to get the latest relentless round of piss taking out of the way, happy fuckin days.

Probably not, but at least we'd avoid being publicly humiliated on live TV every couple of weeks.

Well at least the gap hasn't got closer this evening with Wigan losing to QPR
