If you didnt think we were in trouble

We have taken less points in the Calendar year of 2008 than any other team in the league.

You know you're in trouble when Steven Taylor has to start a game.

you know your in trouble when our best player is a crock. or your 2 wingers can't cross a ball. or your over reliance on a fast centreback who's now banned means your defence is as porous as say, a sieve.

Which result in the original post. Scary that we have taken less points over 12 months than Bolton, Fulham, Sunderland etc.

You know you're in trouble when MvB can't find his preferred charcoal briquettes.

no point comparing stats like that though

taken over at different points of the year/different circumstances and the rest.

 

Its not as if the stats are twisted to make us look bad though. The 2nd half of last season added to the 1st half of this season makes us the worst form team in the league.

 

And the last 2 games dont look like getting us out of that form anytime soon. Its slowly dawning on me that unless we have some major changes this January we could quite easily not just be relegated but finish dead last

nono i mean comparing the keegan and kinnear stats

 

the stats overall are shocking but tbh i don't really put it down to managers fault, the squads been weak for a long long time, managers always want to get more players in, and we haven't (without letting people go) which sort of defeats the point.

 

That's where the comparison has value though. Even after having a while in the job and going on a little run after those first 7 games without a win, Keegans next run of 14 games was little better than Kinnears current run which put together have us as the worst team in 2008. It can be argued that those have been our best 2 spells and without the Allardyce/Hughton periods we couldd be 6 points better off, but across 4 separate managers in 1 year the players have never been good enough in any period of time.

 

Half our starting 11 are 22 or under, we need more experienced, consistent players in key positions of defence and attacking midfield. Another change of manager won't change that. I know you haven't said it will but there are those that do.
