In my head I resigned myself to relegation after the Watford defeat at home in November

I was resigned to relegation in 2019/20 when Watford beat us 3-0 at Xmas. Then a leak from a lab in Wuhan saved us.

Sunderland and Leicester is what fucked us, back to back games where we were 2-0 up and cruising, and we took 1 point. Win them and it's 9 points from 15 and who knows how it goes.

We weren't 2-0 up against Sunderland were we? Thought they scored first. We went 2-1 up but they equalised early in the second half.

My mistake, I had it in my head Sinclair had us 2-0 up. I remember Richards somehow missing a sitter as we battered them.

We definitely battered them, which we then took into the next match until the Tim Tactics change.

This is from the BBC Sunderland match report, those were grim years. By the end of the season it was 19 wins from 88 home games.

They have won 17 of their 71 league games at Villa Park since December 2011, losing 35 times and averaging less than one point per match during that period.

And before the infamous win at Reading we'd won 4 of the previous 52 league games.

What does he call himself on that ‘how to pronounce my name’ video that came out a few days ago?

Job done and at least we aren't Everton 😂

When i saw the Everton result i immediately thought of us v Leicester the season we got relegated.
We were 2-0 up, and lost 3-2, i believe we lost all confidence because of that game and it all just started to fall apart after that. We played another 15 league games without a win after that result.

I can see the same thing happening to Everton, bottom of the league with no points, confidence is on the floor, the fans are getting getting agitated, looks like this will be the season they get relegated.

They have one thing we didn't. A coach who knows what needs to be done. Though even that may not be enough. Them and Leicester could get points deducted and this year it will be terminal.
Saints have lost 3 already and none of them were particularly difficult games. 2 lower half teams and top half team with 10 men for most of the game.
Lob in Ipswich.

Forest and Brentford and Dogheads probably all safe this season.

Not sure there was much mystery as to how Jaden Philogene is pronounced.

They asked him how to pronounce his name. It’’s what that is that seems to be an unfatthomable mystery to some people. Surely that’s solved now, even to those people?

Any idea how many we've won out of our last 88 home games? Well over 50, surely.

I wasn't paying much attention to the crowd on my feed, were the Leicester fans clacking away on their folded cardboard much?

It won't be that high as 88 is more than 4 seasons so would include Gerrard and Smith. Under Emery we've won about two thirds of our home league games.
