Also Brighton only need a point to go above us
That's it! I'm never commenting on points and tables again. Fucking useless!

Thick fucker!

Tres bien JC :)

And we know what a bunch of bottling Villa-shafting c***s Arsenal are.

Why didn't I have money on this? FFS.

Weird league. If everyone below the top 3-4 is much is a muchness, which seems to be the case, presumably that translates into a very high points total to avoid relegation?

Can someone other than BE (wink) explain this to me?!

hope those three points we threw away at Arsenal arent going to come back and bite us.

Great win for Brighton, they seemed a lot more compact than we do away from home.

It would be lovely if results from teams around us went our way for a bloody change.

Mind you, Brighton are a good team and shouldn’t be where they are. They were really impressive against us and we never would have beaten them without the red card.

Does anyone else find we're a little slow compared to other teams, we need to up the pace and pile the pressure on,we do it here and there for very short spells but most of the time it's back to the wall . The only team that have seemed as bad for it were Newcastle against us but Bruce seems to have found a way to pick up points against the big/decent teams

You mean like last night when Watford, Norwich, West Ham, and Everton all lost?!

Norwich lost to Southampton so you can't really count that as a result in our favour (or against us, for that matter).

There are often times when we begin to attack and then someone plays a negative pass when attacking options are available and we start going backwards.

I'd say any night where 4 of the bottom 5 (excluding us) lose is a very good night for us.

The worry this year is that there aren't really any obvious fall guys.

Watford are struggling, but they've got decent quality and could turn it around.  Everton are surely too strong.  Pretty much everyone else is picking up results.

We're playing some pretty good football and look too strong to go down, but we're still getting dragged into it.  I think it will be a high points total cut off this season and we'll be in the mix.  I thought 15-19th at the start and still feel that's about right.  The Jan window will be vital.
