Relegation 2022/23

[Hungry Hungry Hibbo]

Really worried now. Not good for ones mental health. Trying my best to detach myself.

Beat Leeds and kick on. That's my ferment hope.

At the moment I'm struggling to see 3 sides who are worse than us. Southampton and Bournemout possibly (though they both beat us quite easily). Other than that I'm struggling.

Nah we're definitely the most impotent side in the league. None of our players ever look like scoring, other than Gray and DCL. The only other teams who look as woeful in front of goal are Wolves and Leeds. Our only hope is to nick a few 1-0s, and I'm not sure if our defence is capable of that consistently.

Would have been nice to get something out of last night, but if you had offered me 3 points from those two games beforehand…

Bigger games to come

I think I'd rather have Wolves squad over ours. But yes Leeds are possibly worse than us but it's touch and go. They've still got some talented attacking players which we don't have.

At least we might have the odd chance of winning a northwest derby in the championship.

Leeds have more pace and better skill, but they're more naive and their finishing is poor. It's a toss up. Bournemouth looked a lot better with their new signings but still feel like they're no great shakes. Forest aren't that great either, but I just feel like this is the season when our chickens come home to roost. Historically badly run clubs always get relegated in the end.

That result changes nothing. We have got 3 points from 6 under Dyche when we were expected to get 0. They were free hits.

Leeds was always the big one. Let’s see how we do on Sat.

"We need striker...we'll get a striker."

Here we go, another window jumper who accepts the Arsenal result but starts whingeing at a defeat to Liverpool at Anfield...because that NEVER happens.

Yup.

Even Southampton is better. With a new manager they will past us in no time!

 

[Brennan]

A lot of people criticising the team for showing no bottle or fight are also seemingly throwing in the towel and declaring us relegated after a defeat at Anfield.

We have three points from two games, against the league leaders and a fixture which we are notoriously bad at getting a result from. If we continue at that pace we finish the season with 42 points.

Put your big boy/big girl pants on and accept it’s not going to be an easy couple of months, but we have every chance of staying up. Having a breakdown in this thread every time we lose isn’t going to help.

Yes, I'd have bitten your hand off if offered 3 from 6 two weeks ago. But, the concern for me is that we reverted back to type instantly. We managed the odd win and draws against top teams last season and drew to city not long ago. We are capable of these results. But we aren't capable of consistently putting out a few decent displays, and that's how you get out of trouble.

Our goal threat is half that of last season and we only got out of trouble with a game to spare.

Leeds is perhaps the biggest game in our club's history so far.

We as fans must be up for that one. We must drag our team over the line like we did against Chelsea and Palace last season.

 

[Zeitgeist]

The revolving door of winning a game meaning were going to win the league and losing means suicide between fans is becoming tiresome.

People need to accept where we are and to seeth for a short period and let go of a result

Let's hope to see improvement Saturday
sadly without DCL we struggle up top
