Oh what the hell has happened to some of our fans? Just a shameful shameful post, calling for someone at our club to lose their job because we drew a premier league game 0-0.

We're unbeaten in games against teams expected to finish outside the top 8. We're the better side in those games. We've conceded an average of 0.5 goals in those games. And you think we'll finish with 28 points? Blimey.

Two years ago at about this time of the season the highly experienced Hughton managed a run of the three 1-0 wins with the experience of Duffy, Bruno, Stephens, Murray and Knockaert in the squad. We didn't deserve those wins or play that well but we got the points. Many of us saw the underlying...

You're framing the problem as our lack of wins, hence your solution would simply be more wins. OK, fine. So if Burn had somehow miraculously caught his shot perfect and we'd won 1-0, this thread wouldn't appear and the Potter Out posts wouldn't appear. That is the fallacy with your argument...

The whole thing is based on a fallacy - that we have a problem. We don't. What we have is a work on progress, where we're putting together the pieces, working out what works and what doesn't and making or consistently, incrementally better. We have good coaching and a good squad.

Still unbeaten against teams not expected to finish top 8. Probably not a time to be talking sackings

It is frustrating. But reversal to the mean is coming. Can't keep making this many chances and not start scoring. Will happen

Actually, in a tie the House does choose the President, but each state decides individually based on the makeup of its house delegation. So California with its 40-odd Dem Congress peeps would get the same vote at Wyoming with its 1 R. Currently reps control 26 House delegations, dems control 24...

Party registration does not tell the result. Republicans need to be ahead in registration numbers in Florida because the sizeable unaffiliated vote leans democrat and the Dems get more crossover votes than Rs. They need to be about 400k votes ahead of Dems to win but we're only up about 100k at...

He will have a huge role to play for us but it's a bit hard to it him in at the moment. Bissouma and Lallana are ahead of him and we needed to get White in there as a defensive midfielder as we were getting hit on the break over and over again - that had become glaringly obvious. We play...

Have a look at the results in various bellwether counties to see how the election is turning out.https://uk.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-investors-counties-factb/factbox-the-u-s-counties-wall-street-will-be-tracking-on-election-night-idUKKBN27I1BF Pinellas County in Florida is one to...

I am, yes

There is a dichotomy between the outrage shown at the club daring to charge £14.95 to watch a game on TV, when they've lost all matchday revenue and a huge amount of commercial revenue, and the demands for the club to spend even more on first team players. But that's for another thread. My main...

No, but if you're leaving out our top scorer and best striker to give him a kick up the backside, you play his understudy in his place. You don't switch to no striker and leave Connolly out of the squad altogether. He may not have set the Premier league alight but equally he doesn't deserve to...

If these players were at their peak and making mistakes then I'd agree. I have faith in their improvement. I also look at our youth and development set up and am confident we won't have as much difficulty replacing players as other teams

Surely Connolly would have played if that was the case

I guess I just fundamentally disagree that performance gets you nowhere. It's the single most important step in building a successful team and everything will follow from that. A young and improving team will turn that into goals scored and defensive mistakes eliminated as they develop. Yes, we...

There are shortcuts to getting more points in the short-term, but not to becoming a top ten side. If we were a team that only has 30% possession against Burnley and Villa, we're not going to become a top ten team however long we stay up in the premier league doing that. Hughton got three...

We're unbeaten in games against teams expected to finish outside the top 8. So yeah, let's have a poll about whether we should sack the manager. Never change NSC.

The defence is clearly where Potter has been working the most this season. Switching to a back 3 in pre-season and giving White his debut, then bringing Burn in to add the height and strength that we had been missing at set pieces, then moving White to defensive midfield to make us less...
