We're a laughing stock (3 Viewers)

Maybe stick it in a double with Elvis to be alive still as they are offering odds of 10,000-1

Some people here need to get a grip, if someone had said at the start of last season you are going to buy your ground, get promoted as champions then have a poor start and get relegated, would anyone really have turned that down? short memories...

What is in common with all those 3

They all beat Derby's point record I think is the point he's making which was the link to the OP. Whether we get relegated is a different point.

I definitely think there is some truth to that on the pitch at the moment but I don't think anyone is saying they want us to get relegated.

I will always support the players on the pitch, but objectively watching them I have seen enough football to know relegation is a certainty . Will not stop me from getting behind them every match and cheering them on.

You might have written this season off but I haven't yet - Anyone who come into this season expecting anything other than a slog for the coveted 17th place right above the dotted line was absolutely kidding themselves and as far as I am aware we are only 2 points away from that position

Sunderland coming up and doing what they did last season was the worst thing that could have happened as it has given people the totally wrong impression of what was attainable

I completely agree, in the same way Ipswich's back to back promotions made it seem easier to get out of the championship than it was (take note Birmingham City). If we finish 17th than that would be a great season. If we don't, then we have had a financial windfall and we have improved the squad considerably.

Yes I have written it off. The players are no where near it and if you think spurs are going to be in a relegation battle I would like some of what you are having. The quality they have means they won’t be close to previous seasons. As I said I will support the boys for all 90 mins of every game. I didn’t support Coventry for an easy time. I have an attachment to the club and that means sticking through the tough times. Objectively, however, for the sake of analysis, there is no way the team is staying up.

If any trialists make negative comments I think we should burn the soles of their feet until they admit they’re a Leicester fan.

I really dont know how you can say 2 with such certainty.

I didn't, read the post i was replying too. They were available options/points not necessary mine.

C) We've played Man City and Arsenal away.

The ‘Random fixture computer’ giving us Arsenal away so Sky could have their big Champions v Champions thing on opening night whilst the other two promoted sides got cushy home fixtures to hit the ground running fucks me off so much - had us fighting against the tide from minute one

If we’d have been afforded the luxury of playing Sunderland or Man United at home first weekend I am certain things would be panning out differently for us

Where can I find that 50/1 bet? Or do I actually have to go bookies for it?
