Anyone starting to get worried?

I’ve just looked at the fixtures for all the sides around us. Plenty of 6 pointers for our rivals and games against both 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' and Citeh with a few juicy derbies thrown in. All look very tough. I think I preferred our run in the most if I’m honest. If there is mid table mediocrity in this league we’ll be playing most of them.

I am concerned again. The next 10 or so look considerably harder. We're not getting points v the top half and need to start doing that in order to stay up.

We'd have been relatively comfortable with a win yesterday. I think we may look back on this game

We are - in anger.

Well don’t..... winky thing

Musical chairs for the next 3 months I’m afraid to say. I’m hoping it doesn’t all come down to Wet Spam on the last day because we just don’t seem to have the minerals.

Well, Spurs at home and Southampton away seem a little more charitable than Man City and a trip to Anfield. Let's recall the benefits of passing to a Villa player from defence and put a little gap between us and West Ham.

After that the West Ham have Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea I think, all of which will know how much their fans want to see West Ham relegated. They’ve the worst run in out of everyone I think.

It's still anybodies. There's a number of teams in the shit. We still need 4 wins to be sure. I wouldn't say anyone around us is feeling anymore confident that us. Watford's honeymoon looks over, West Ham have a horrible run which could derail them, Norwich are gone, Brighton can't win a raffle and B'mouth have a had a couple of results just like we did. Plenty of twists and turns to come. We do need a result against a team we normally lose to though.

I said before it’s musical chairs until the final whistle on the last day, we are not going to pull away. Looks like our chance is to win our home games as our away record is dire.

We should not let a miracle last gasp win against Watford blind us to the fact that 5 or 6 of our regular first team are not (and may never be) of sufficient standard for the Premier League.

FFP has been a massive advantage to those clubs that were able to consolidate before the drawbridge was pulled up.

I have a bad feeling that Jack will not be with us next season.

I've always been worried about this season and still am.  The real disaster of yesterday was gifting Bournemoth another win and helping their mini revival.  If we're to stay up my feeling is they will need to be one of the fall guys because I still think Watford and West Ham will have too much.

It's tight, but it was always going to be.  We're still one of the form teams in the relegation mix and we've got Jack with McGinn also to come back.  If I was one of the other teams I'd be worried about us.

There's a long way to go and there will be plenty of flip flops between 'we're doomed' and 'we look good' between now and the end of the season.

For me, it's too tight to call, which is pretty much what we should really have expected at the start of the season.

West Ham and Watford have so far proved they've got less than us.

Just because they're below us doesn't change my view that I think they'll both probbaly have too much between now and the end of the season.

Spot on. I expect we will drop into the bottom 3 at some point before the end of the season. Maybe more than once. It just depends where we are after the final game. We'll just have to stay on tenter hooks.

That's fair enough, but they've not shown it so far.

My bottom 3 would be Norwich, Watford and Brighton.
