You think we'll lose at home to Wolves, away at Leeds, away at Villa, home to Brighton, away at Brentford plus the Liverpool and Utd games?

You must be a riot on matchdays! We're unbeaten in 9 at home, we're not a great side but we're good at grinding results.
Sorry I'm out walking the dog and didn't see the dates properly. I usually predict a win for the most part at home.

So that's BadDog out walking the dog? Go to be a song in there somewhere.

I will give you your due Wassy top supporter of the club! However, may I respectfully suggest that when you next visit your optician, ask him to remove that rose tinting from your glasses! I have to say that I was more then confident after the Leeds result that we would stay up, that resolve has been severely tested since then and not just by results but performances both by SC team selections plus the player performances just not to the standards required to avoid the drop, hope you also see this?

Yes I am of course concerned as performances have gotten worse. Not the same as suddenly expecting to lose every game though. We are still 4 points clear of Everton, with a game in hand. Just because we're not great doesn't mean all the teams below us will suddenly start winning every game either. 

I've openly said I think we're probably 18th or 19th best team this year and Cooper is over-achieving so far, I'd hardly call that rose tinted. Now you may or may not be one of them but I don't think some of our fans have accepted this fact. Presumed that excessive spending would suddenly make us a midtable team. Despite there being no precedent for that happening and the ridiculous injuries we had to key players. 

I think we are doing well and I think we'll probably stay up still as I think the other teams below us might have some better players but they do not look as well organised or well coached and do not have the same support.

Southampton have still got to play all of the current top nine.

Last day of the season Everton - Bournemouth and Leicester - West Ham.

So at least 2 of those teams won't be winning on the last day.

Think we are going to see goal difference play a part in this relegation battle this year with so many teams so close.

Hold on a minute because we have to play 7 of the top nine plus Chelsea who are 10th.
