Anyone starting to get worried?

It's all over I'm afraid ,we simply do not have the quality on the pitch and have a average championship manager in charge.

Agreed, we’re lacking in the dug out as much as on the pitch.

Hate to say it but we're hoping for a near miracle now to stay up! Squad & management team simply not good enough. Back to the drawing board!

I’m worried.  But with FFP being relaxed and a lot of these players being capable in the championship (the ones that stay) I have more confidence of bouncing back if the worst happens.

Bloody hell. We might well go down, but it is neither “all over” nor do we need a “miracle”. We need to win a few games, which is perfectly possible. It might not happen, but there is plenty that can happen yet.

I think we're more likely to finish bottom than stay up. The owners have to take some of the blame too.. Giving Dean Smith a free pass was a terrible decision.

I have been driving down the road signposted worry for a long time. I think the next turning is signposted panic.

I think there will be more than the “obvious 3” leave IF it happens.

With agents involvement, there will be plenty who will think they’re too good for the Championship.

I'm not worried, just pissed off about going down with a shrug rather than a fight.

[kippaxvilla2]

Having proved they’re not of course.

Already rumours about Trez and El Ghazi going, neither of whom I would miss. I can see Guilbert staying in the top division too.

Quite.

Wouldn't want to be with some of this lot in the trenches, fucking Hell.

Arsenal bastards. I've taken a real disliking to them this season.

It worried me when Dean said words to the effect of 'it's not the games against the top teams that are important, it's the games against those around us'.  Not only because it was defeatist - no wonder we've not beaten any of the top sides with that attitude - but because it piles the pressure on the team to get results against those around us.  And sure enough we dropped points in those games too.

Smith is a nice man, and I would love him to do well, but thus far, he has looked out of his depth at this level.
