Not yet at least.
Far too long to go and 2 of our hardest games come in the next 3 matches.
Other teams in and around us do objectively have harder games.
I'm not fretting unduly is my point, but neither am I in any way complacent.

The fear I have is we got rid of Frank at the very least a month late where the upcoming fixtures were not too bad and if there is such a thing as a new manager bounce it did not need to be so big to bag a few points to make us safe but now it looks much more difficult .
Genuinely worried we are gone
Lange and Vinai definitely made it as hard as possible for us to avoid relegation by refusing to sack Frank.
As ugly as some of our remaining games are, we still have some big winnable relegation games. Leeds, Everton, Brighton, and Palace at home. Wolves and Sunderland away. It’s going to be really tough but if the players enjoy playing for Tudor I’m sure we’ll get enough points.
Whatever happens tomorrow the type of performance will tell us whether we will be relegated or not. We had like 0.07 xG the last time we played Woolwich. Play with courage and create chances and I would expect us to get the 10 or so points we’ll need in the rest of the games even if we can’t win tomorrow.
Me too. Unless we start playing a lot better and pick up some form and results ourselves. Not kidding myself into thinking there are teams more likely. We really need to turn are home form around.
Fcuk sake, the state of some of you.
Forest and West Ham are prime Barcelona suddenly, not to mention Palace.
Long long way to go and not every result will or can go our way.

I don't think we can read that much into tomorrow.
That lot will be absolutely fired-up to turn us over, so we only do well against them if they go down to 10 men in my opinion.
The CEO and Lange should be sacked. They left the previous manager on post for 7 weeks longer than was justified.
They don’t have to be prime Barcelona to get another 12-15 points. Not even close.
1-1 FTleeds 1-0 up
Results average so far. One of Brighton or Leeds were bound to get something today. Possibly more than expected.
Lots of twists and turns to come,but good that Brighton will have some confidence before they face Forest next weekend.
Deep breaths and clarity.

Results of the 14th/15th placed teams aren’t a big deal. West Ham and Forest are overwhelming favorites and we need to finish above 1 of those 2 teams.
Just wondering. The media tried to build up a title race after 5 or 6 games. Are we falling into a trap of thinking the relegation scrap has started yet? There’s still a third of the season to go. That’s a lot of matches to pick up the wins. Of course we want to get them asap but are we being driven by media panic?
I caveat this by saying, I do think we are in the shit just because of the injuries, but there are plenty of points to fight for. Could do with Bournemouth winning today though for sure.

Possibly not, but it would be nice to have another team or two between us and the drop zone, just in case those two do start catching us.
Agree in general Just don't want us to be third from bottom and facing so called winnable games under the pressure that would be attached to them .
If we get relegated we at least would have Philips, Devine, Moore to play ?
