danceoftheshamen Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Just logged on... Don't even know the score from today although i have no doubt we lost.. coz well... erm.... we're crap! & judging by the above posts looks that is indeed the case. The usual pre match BS of how we are now so much better after a win against West Ham & the players have had chance to recover & work on some things etc............ So we lose... Again!

trekka Posted February 23, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) Anyone changed their vote based on today's result? Would you be saying that if we had won? If we had won I would have baked a cake so I wouldn't have had the time to ask the question. Anyway, a win was hardly likely with our bad manager and pathetic loser players so your question is irrelevant. I fully expected us to lose today and expected a backlash from Arsenal but we didn't capitulate ala Chelsea. A loss is a loss though.

supernova26 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) The 3 down there now are the 3 who will go down. Wigan better than us, and always get out. Edited February 23, 2013 by supernova26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Yep, I think it will be the current bottom 3 that will go down. If we do drop I would like a new manager to give us a fresh chance at coming back up. I think Lambert has been found out at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danceoftheshamen Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 The 3 down there now are the 3 who will go down. Wigan better than us, and always get out. Agreed.. Not a chance we will finish above Wigan now in my opinion. They are miles better than us... How sad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 It will probably come down to the last game. It'll be us or Wigan to go down and we'll probably end up conceding a 95th minute goal to send us down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KjParton Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Its a shame the gap between the bottom 3 and the rest of the table is now increasing. We've had it for now i think boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a chance we will finish above Wigan now in my opinion. They are miles better than us... How sad! Quite a ridiculous statement. After 27 games (Quite a large set of data), they are entirely equal in terms of points. Yep, absolutely miles better than us. I take it when we leap frogged them only a couple of weeks ago was a one off that has no chance of happening again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodytom Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 For me, Grant Holts goal was bigger than Santi Cazorlas 2nd today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 It's not looking good. Wigan will probably do their usual Houdini act. Newcastle have too much quality and their owner decided to spend a bit of money in January. Southampton haven't imploded with the new manager. I don't see any other team getting drawn into it.

rendelc Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I said in October we would probably get relegated . Now its nearly March i am utterly convinced of it . Strangely i am not nearly as pissed off about it as i thought i would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it when we leap frogged them only a couple of weeks ago was a one off that has no chance of happening again? Well they did stuff us 3-0 at VP too very recently. Ok "miles better" is maybe overcooking it a touch but for me they are definately a better team than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 We have more quality than Wigan on paper (just about) but they're far better mentally and they've also got a much better manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danceoftheshamen Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 (edited) So it seems that is now 11 times we have been behind & lost 10 of them? very bad loss for me.. I know it was away at Arsenal etc but we should have been fresher than them having had 2 weeks off & with them having had a very tough game in midweek, plus they are nowhere near as good as some recent Arsenal sides... Especially going into the last 5 mins at 1-1, to lose it again is extremely disappointing. Maybe we are trying to break the "losing it in the last few minutes" record to go with the other records we have achieved this season?

Mantis Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 The only points I can recall that we've gained from losing positions are a point against Swansea and a point against West Brom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A much better manager eh? Incidently he was my first choice in the Mcleish summer. My dad absolutely raves about him. And for the last 6 months I have wondered why? Wigan have shown no improvement since he has been there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LockStockVilla Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Most knew it was vital to have gotten the three points against WHU considering the next two matches we had against Arsenal and Citeh, which would more than likely put us back in the bottom 3. I'm still confident we'll get out of it and as long as we do not get humped next week, we have so much much to play for in the likes of Reading away and QPR at home. Just have to keep a decent level of confidence and today can't have eroded that too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 For me the situation hasnt changed I did not expect us to get anything out of the Arsenal or Man City game Yes Wigan won but it was a possibility that either of those 2 sides would win that game a draw being the best result for us I still think if we win all our winnable games we can still stay up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
