But yeah it's awful.

You just know that whether we go down or not, it will go down to the last day. I would almost rather just be relegated with a month to go, than have to go through that nail biting...

God, I remember that - although in hindsight it was likely we'd get relegated I still thought we'd get out of it (what with Sir Trev and all that). It all seemed a bit cruel, almost making it out. Allardyce's comments pissed me off as well.

For heaven's sake!

Time to give Tomkins a chance me thinks.

Typical to get a load of injuries just as we get into gear.

STill, 6 goals in two games is a big improvement on previous games.

Boro beating charlton 3-1 which isn't good. That really ought to have been a draw from our POV. But portsmouth equalised with sheff utd which is good, and wigan got spanked 4-0. I reckon wigan could be the team we will duke it out with for 17th place...

FFS! 3 minutes into stoppage time!

got to score away from home, only 2 in the league all season.

Agreed about Wigan, they're only 3 points above us, but with 1 game in hand.

Yeah all the 'glamour club' comments from Bruce really fucked me off too. How can a club which is usually associated with stuff like jellied eels and 'cockney geezas' be a glamour club? LIfe must be fucking dull where they come from if that's glamour. Also we generally have a hard time attracting players.

As to that season - I knew it was all over when we failed to put arsenal away in that second game. I am still convinced that if kanoute had scored that penalty to put us 3-1 up, we would have won the game and stayed up.

What? Are you saying it is 3-3?
