Yep - had to snigger at all the scummers saying what a great signing Ings was.
There’s a strong case that miss cost them at least a point. It was an absolute shocker for a cf

No, we have to finish in the top 6 of 9 - there are 9 teams, not 8, in the mini league below the four point gap below Everton.

I think we are in a slightly false position currently. We look a better side to me than last season with more flair and options off the bench. We've played 4 of the 'big clubs' in this early run of games including arguably the two best away from home. Next three games will tell us a lot IMO but I think we'll end up mid table if we have luck with injuries etc. An away win or two would make all the difference...

He can score 2-3 a game though but their defence might concede 4-5

8 games in, I am making no predictions yet as to who will go, too early for that. I will take a look in another half a dozen games.

noted also that last season same time both Stoke and Swansea were also on 8 points, WBA on 10.

One has to be content with the points accumulated to date. This year we have more quality players than last and so should be ok. Key is Murray and him continuing to take the chances we create. It is though going to be a battle to near the very end though.

Do we ever do it any other way ? Mid table mediocrity is not our way.
Notable on Friday how strong our bench was. Almost any of those starting in the dugout could have started and not weakened the starting 11. And with Gross, Montoya and Stephens to come back - we look far stronger than last year. Imagine what those injuries (and now Propper) would have done to us last season.
It's still early, but reasons to look forward with some slight optimism. As people have said, next half dozen games or so should leave us in our true position.

They sprinted off last year too and couldn't keep it up.

Problem for Fulham and their gungho style is that historically it has failed in this division. They will be mauled more often than not and that really will hit their confidence. Our Chris's more conservative style is the way forward.
love to see Carduff, South London Comedy Collective and Scummers drop....would 'larf me ed-orf'!

Palace's luck will run out at some point. With some tricky fixtures next up, and the loyal fan vs homesdale pathetics fallout, this could be a joyless toxic few months for the not so jolly jestermen.
