Those 6 have only started a game together ONCE this season - vs Leeds (we won).
I think .5th would be a stretch this season
maybe add the words "from bottom" to this thread? But even 16th might be a stretch this season.
5th from bottom would be great
I hate it when we wait for other teams to fail in order for us to have a chance...so lame..
I just want to say that the catch-down from outperforming our XG so much earlier this season has been absolutely brutal for us- like an unstoppable wave of destruction. I've thought a lot about our conversations earlier this season about that and it's a bit spooky how much it came true...
Didn't know whether to laugh or agree, in the end I thought 5th from bottom would be fantastic right now...
Could keep this thread up for the Championship next season.
This thread has aged like Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's reputation
It's is, but not by much.
It's brutal isn't it.

Yes, we're playing for 5th .. 5th from bottom .. c'mon why settle for merely 4th from bottom.
I want to apologise for starting this thread.
Let's close it now.
Let's close it now.
This is actually a good reference point to where it all went wrong. Mid January. Since then 3 points from a possible 30.
10 games - going back to West Ham - Spurs are the only team in the league with zero wins. Fucking madness.
Wins for our rivals.
West Ham 4, palace 3, Forest 2.
Tellingly 33% of those wins came at our stadium!!
Win those 9 points and we aren’t in the shit. Even 3 draws would have relieved some of this pressure.
What a shitshow.
The small hope? .The Last 6 games.
Palace 3 wins (and safe now)
West Ham 1 Win.
Forest. 1 win. (Against us)
Leeds 0 wins.
Spurs. 0 wins
Could yet be a stumble across the finish line.
It'll be close but I have complete confidence that we'll be ok...especially with this manager change...
Sunderland, watch out, you're about to get a spanking..
