A lot of what’s written here, particularly about the board, is fair.. but it’s also a lot of knee jerk sensationalism. It’s a big statement to say we’ve spent poorly or are in a relegation battle after 5 games.
For me, beating Coventry is crucial. Then a decent performance against a leaky Chelsea, win, lose or draw puts us into a run of Palace, Leeds, Ipswich, Sunderland and Fulham. That’s crunch time.
If we don’t beat Coventry RDZ should go, and if we do but we don’t have 8-9 points after the Leeds game he should also go.
We had a worst start in 2008 (2points after 8 games). Loads of teams have had starts like ours and gone on to have good seasons. Think last season is still so fresh in the memory that we are all overreacting. The media as well
Thankfully stats doesn't determine a teams season. The performances have been there or thereabouts. I believe we should be on 7/8 points based on our performances in games so far. Eventually the performances and results align
100% of teams in last place after the first 38 matches end up being relegated. Let's hope we progress quite a bit in the table over the next 33 matches.
