Deduct them 3 points, award us the 3 points as a forfeit, job done and an end to the shenanigans.

Always a chance a spurs player gets sent off the way it’s going

Beasant was the rock on which it was built

That would explain all the rainbows round the place.

Just to clear up the confusion, Its his African cousin, Alli Dele, we are in for

Redmond, a senior player, always goes into his shell when we are up against it

If we could get in to half time only a goal down then Ralph can deploy the false 10, pivot wing backs, triple trapezoidal midfield 2 covering 8 positions, working against the ball with on the bus, bring long and Walcott on palace won’t know what’s hit them.

No, I’ve seen the data, it doesn’t lie!

Think we are going to get something out of this.

At least we don’t have to listen to depressed Martin Tyler or Ian Darke, there’s always a positive

THe reason Id have McGinn is his resilience of character, which we lack

Thinking about your last bit, I don't like Mings, but I think he's a good center back. Looking at their key positions, Ings, Watkins, Mings, Martinez, McGinn, I'd have all of those as first choice in our team. Moving the argument a little, I expect Gerrard was given a bit of a budget to improve the weakest positions (Targett) etc. Whatever happens this season, I'm convinced they will finish comfortably higher than us, and unlike us, they are on the way up.

I think that one may come back to bite you, hope not, but think it will.

And we had the excuse of ten men for most of both games

Crap as we are we aren’t the crappiest at the moment.

Leeds are competing with Saints 0-6 with 15 to go

3 now

The crazy situation with the table at the moment is 2 wins and we could be 12th , two defeats and we could be bottom 3. We'll probably muddle through somewhere in the middle. I keep looking back to how fortunate we were to meet Leeds with 5 first team regulars missing and Villa at their lowest ebb who were also struggling with injuries.

I refer back to Semmens interview on gteh TSP again, paraphrased - Ralph was excused last year because of the injuries and lack of squad depth, we have addressed the squad issues over the summer, over to you Ralphie boy. In Ralph's position I'd be feeling really nervous. "It's a funny old game" as a wise man once said, a good return from our next two and we are right up there, a poor return then its getting a really squeaky bum time, which I'm not sure he'd survive, the stakes are just too high.

I I was only having a bit of a laugh me old mate (trying to), appreciate it doesn't always come across that way in text.

So would I, so would a lot of us, but I suspect Wreckit has some ridiculously flawed cunning plan

I only saw the last 20, I quite enjoyed the feistyness of it, we won’t perform if Palace get stuck into us like that.

Clearly when we win our next game! Have you learned nothing from this forum? If you look at the xg*p1(3xz) / hot dog x2 - 4-2-2-2 automated you’d have a better understanding of how good we really are and what a great tactician Ralph is. It becomes really clear that we are one of the best teams ever in the premier league, if it wasn’t for our dashed rotten luck we’d probably be top, if not higher!

Bizarrely you are still on target for your seemingly pessimistic forecast of 5 points. I guess the season starts here all over again? Palace then Brentford, get four points from those two and it doesn’t look so terrible again.
