We need to end up in a place that qualifies for European football.

We need to keep building a squad and we have a lot of young players that need games in their legs and if we fail to qualify for ANY European comp, we are going to end up in a situation where we have a bunch of players getting hardly any minutes and stunting their growth, which causes them to become negative assets for the club and a horrendous watch for the fans.

This club hasn’t shown they can develop players in a decade.
 
Just a question, I'm genuinely interested...
Did u want ange to stay ?
Nope, should've been fired months before, and I'd have sacked him the summer before he was, to be honest.

Believe it or not, you don't have to like the coach you didn't like's replacement. And I liked Frank to begin with, but this is just nonsense at this stage and it won't get better.
 
Judging by this season ( obviously home form a long standing issue)
And the fall out since Saturday
More players seemingly getting injured, then actually ever returning from injury
Just how bad could things actually get
The general vibe currently is poor ( understatement)
 
The next month and a half will be very decisive in where we will finish this season I feel.

Villa
Everton (A)
Chelsea
ManU
Woolwich (A)
Fulham
Newcastle (A)

As far as the race for top 4 or 5 is concerned, we could be left in the dust after failing to even hit the double digits in points during this brutal stretch.

Hoping for the best, preparing for the worst.
4 points from the first 4. Going as expected so far, except the table staying as congested as it has probably ever been in a long time.

Still have this feeling that we're hanging by a thread though, with a few teams being on the verge of taking off.

We'll do well to finish top half.

Not in order but all these clubs have either better players, better manager or both than we do. I can't see us finishing above any of them

That lot
Pool
Chelsea
City
Newcastle
Brighton
Sunderland
Man u (no europe)
