It wouldn't take all the teams in the bottom 4 to win for us to be where 17th and one point from safety on saturday night, only two of them, which is exactly how many won on saturday if you exclude Wigans away win in the FA cup. So not really sure what you are on about.

Are you sure Les? Only some people say you ripped up your season ticket in disgust at our relegation last time.

Please explain.

It's pathetic mate. If anyone disagrees with the clappers or dares to suggest we are in real danger its because they are all the same person using multiple logins or attention seeking trolls.

When have i gone quiet? If we lose on saturday which is highly possible we could well be 17th, just one point above the drop zone. It doesn't need brilliant form from the bottom 4 for this to happen, just for us to lose to a team in 6th who are in great form and for Villa to win at home against the second bottom side and Wigan to win at home against Newcastle. Would hardly be as astonishingly impossible series of results for that scenario to take place.

You say we are playing "much better" under MP and use shots at goal as evidence to support your claim despite our results being worse. I think anyone that knows that Oslo is the capital of Norway would know that teams performances are based on results and goals, not how many shots they have.

I thought it would be obvious. You claim we are playing much better, yet results are worse. Your yardstick for measuring performance is not points gained but shots taken. It's pretty evident from that post.

For the fun of it I have checked some stats on total shots and shots on goal in our last 15 games. It´s easy to see that under MP we have dominated those stats in every game but the Newcastle one, and even in that one whick most people think was a poor game we had more shots on goal than them. Now we have a team and manager with a bright future cause why do you think teams like Man U, Man C, Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea are in the top of the table every year? Yes, cause they are dominating games and producing more chances than other teams. No, we are not there yet because we lack that final bit of quality but to score goals you have to produce chances and that is what we have been doing the last games much more the last 6 games than earlier this season. Despite results being worse and taking less points you claim we are playing "much better"

Olallana for one.

The only stats that matter are points on the board and how many times the ball hits the onion bag. No team ever won a game based purely on having more posession, or shots at goal.

That is guarenteed.

I seem to recall people saying around september time it doesn't matter if we go down this season as we are already ahead of the 5 year plan.

Do you genuinely believe, as it seems you are suggesting, that we are going to win 5 of our last 9, given we've only won 6 all season.

I think you should put her on a performance inprovement plan. Employees that have given long services and particularly ones who have invested in the organisation and trained young apprectices are notoriously difficult and expensive to fire given the legalities involved. With a PIP then you can set her targets to get her performance up the the standard required to keep her role. The advantage of this is that she will either raise her game and provide her with new motivation to perform her womanly tasks to the best of her ability, or, more likely will become bitter, miserabale and whiny fail to meet her key performance indicators giving you grounds for dismissal under the unresonable behaviour clause.

IF they do stay up then you'd have to say he's done an incredible job, wouldn't you.

Why? Don't like a few FACTS?

Lots of good posters don't bother any more and you can see why!

Those lost points at Wigan will come back to haunt us.

We could well the the drop zone if we do. We need 2 points minimum.

/\ forget Swansea too. They are class at home and the way they play will mean they'll pick us off.

fact

Are you not worried we've had almost 50 attempts at goal in the last 2 games and scored once and that was due to a goalkeeper blunder.

He had one less assist than Adam Johnson in the same period.

More than Ramirez, who cost more, has played less, scored less and has less asssits.

You should read my opinion more, it's almost always correct.
