If Wilder starts with the same formation against Chelsea, that he played in the second half last night, we could get a point although probably not all three. Norwood was excellent for us in the Championship but now he's yesterday's man and looks like a liability against good Premier League sides. I think we'd have got a lot more points this season if Wilder had played with a number 10 from the start but that defensive formation which has become stale and predictable has cost us.

Bang on "despritdan"....

 

My thoughts exactly....

Rumour has it that CW was after a #10 in the transfer windows as well as a left sided defender on  loan, but was given the money for neither.

 

Norwood would probably have struggled for game time if Berge had been fit.  Ampadu could play there, but he's been needed elsewhere.  I agree he's not the same player as last season, but I can't see an alternative at present.  I get the point about a #10 - perhaps he'll try Goldie there as well as 2 forwards in a match sometime soon, or even one of the youngsters.

When all the euphoria of last night's narrow victory subsides, BHA's victory at Anfield tonight, I fear, hammers the nail in the relegation coffin a little deeper.

 

 

OK, so Brighton won.  Burnley and Fulham both lost at home!  That gives us a bit more hope!  It's Newcastle and Wolves that should be getting worried, as they are getting closer to the trapdoor.

We've got Fulham, wolves, Brighton, Newcastle and Burnley all the play. The last two of those just as it happens are our last two games of the season, which is a little bit more worrying. It spells for a bit of a dogfight and rings bells of the Warnock era. 

 

But it is all very much to play for at the minute. A couple more wins in the bag and points picked up against the pack...we are right back in the mix. It isn't going to be easy, but the attitude and determination shown over the last few games would put us in great stead. I have every confidence that we have the fight, grit and determination....we just need to ensure that we have the same confidence and quality that saw us come back and dispose of west brom.

 

 

 

 

 

You've broken your hoodoo of not being able to beat teams around you, if you can continue that and pick up some more wins against teams around you then anythings possible.

One bad result doth not Relegation make.

Lots of points to play for yet.

Just get some of them, and you'll be fine.

Trust me.

Sorry - should have, as I've been saying for a while I still think we'll be safe.

Vital match, yes.  It's only 3 points though.  IF we lose, we've still got plenty of matches left to turn it round.  Have faith!

Acknowledged Thirsty.

I can't believe some people will 'accept' failure so readily.

Doubters: Unsqueeze your buttocks, and enjoy the ride.

It'll be uphill a little bit more yet, but you'll be reight.
