    I think I saw/heard something yesterday on NBCSports here in the States, that every team that has had 6 points or less at this stage of the season (8 games played) has been relegated. I could be totally wrong because I was passing by the TV after that shocking game finished yesterday so I only caught/heard a quick glimpse of what I think they were saying.

    Again I could be totally wrong so if anyone on here heard what the pundits were talking about or knows if that is in fact true, then I would be interested to know.

    On a side note, what a fabulous season it would be if we finished top 10 and those three went down. Glorious!!

    Nah, it's always fun picking up results against Bournemouth, Palace and Leicester.

    My god there is some absolute ***** in the league this year.

    Leicester fans are fuming at their recruitment recently and rightly so. After winning the league they had a chance to attract some top quality talent and they've gone backwards, it's both hilarious and scandalous at the same time.

    We should be finishing in the top 10 this season, every weekend you can scan through the match day squads of teams in the bottom half and there's very few players who would get a place in our team.

    Last season Swansea were on 4 points and Stoke on 6 after 8 games.
    Swansea had just lost 3-2 to Arsenal and the media was raving about what a spirited performance they had put up for their new manager Bob Bradley's first game in charge.
    We beat Middlesbrough 1-0 (Middlesbrough were also on 6 points) and our players were shown arguing as they left the pitch.

    I know a man perfectly suited to the job of taking Leicester down this season, Ive heard hes not working at the moment but cant confirm because he cant speak a word of English.

    Yeah I was saying the same thing to a mate a few games back. The league is complete and utter dross and other than City theres no one to be scared of. This will be our best and easiest shot at European football for decades and we should be expecting nothing less than a top 6 or at a push, top 7 finish. If we recruit well again in Jan and avoid iniuries then I wouldn't rule out top 4.

    Bring on European football.

    Shakespeare was always going to end in tears. There are probably a good 50 or so examples of people who have been happy to have been a coach for most of their career, circumstances then dictate they get a shot at the main job, they almost always do well for the first few games, and then eventually goes **** up.

    There is normally a reason why they haven’t ever mamanged a club until the age of about 50.

    If Carlseberg made league tables...

    But seriously that’s like a dream we all once had but then we woke up and laughed at how ridiculous it was.

    Absolutely horrendous by West Ham. Just clueless.

    Can see West Ham going for Rafa after today's game and offering them stupid money for him.

    He is definitely gone now! 0-3 at home to Brighton, such a poor result.

    The West Ham players looks like our boys during Mazzarri's reign. They just can't be bothered. No passion, no energy, lazy passing, lack of movement and totally lost.

    There is no way back from getting bossed 0-3 at home to Brighton.

    So with Crystal Palace v West Ham and Leicester v Everton next week I can definitely see 1 maybe 2 sackings, thats if Bilic and Koeman make it to the weekend. On top of that if we hammer Stoke maybe Hughes will be on his way too.

    I can't work out what's going wrong as they've got the branding, the highly effective brand management, a high profile stadium and a management team with a highly effective media presence...

    I can see Palace beating WHU next week,which will leave Tweedledee and Tweedlebum with a dilema as they said today Bilic stays unless things get really bad.
    Everton look all over the shop too.

    My son was distraught after today’s game (I’m more circumspect), but I did say - imagine if we supported West Ham* how upset would you be then!

    * we live in Stratford and before they moved we could hear when they scored a goal from our home, so they are kind of a second team, I’d like them to stay in them PL, but mainly as it’s an easy away game to go to!
