but there are lots of positives to see in the team the way we are playing and passing the positive play

I am not giving up hope not in mid October. Yes we are not getting the results but I have seen a lot to be optimistic about. so what part of the one win in seven and not looking like getting much better given the fixtures coming up are you optimistic about stanley, you really that desperate to put all your eggs in the basket of Sterling, Suso and Shelvey to carry us on right throughout the whole season even though they have done amazingly well up to now, stanley, stanley, stanley your supposed to be an experienced supporter your not really that nieve are you, stop talking with your heart instead of your head... drop the patronising "wum" tone please. debate respectfully or dont debate at all.
Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.

I agree with Stan. As long as its possible, I going to believe it. We've looked good, and got our first clean sheet, now that we've got that, we need to get the goals. I can see that happening and it's onwards and upwards from there. Can't wait!

it's october and we are 8 points behind 4th, yet some of you say we have no chance? my god guys, why so pessimistic? we haven't even made it to half time (january transfer window) and several of you have already written us off. i'm not saying that i know 100% certainty that we will get 4th, but to already give up at this stage is pathetic. Actually I think it is far more pathetic for grown men to put ridiculous and unfair expectations on the club. There is no giving up on 4th. 4th was never a possibility for us this year. We have to rebuild from 8th. And without a lot of money. That means it will take time. Drawing against stoke isn't an awful result, they are a good team that are hard to beat and we dominated them and should have scored in last 15 minutes on a couple of occaisions. We currently do not have a particularly good team and 0 options to change a game. We have to wait to build the squad up with new players which we need money for, or wait for the youngsters to get better. Either way pipe dreams of 4th this season do more damage than good, cause it leads to over reactions to a loss or a draw.

I was depressed and guilty of moaning after Stoke - but ESSO's post puts things into perspective! And before and during

No, the Americans call that accepting "lower expectations" and that's not what the club was built on.
If you are happy to accept that it doesn't mean the rest of us have to also.
