This time last year we were top 4 and had 35 points. Last time we had 18 points was 8 years ago and we were relegated but we are NOT IN A RELEGATION BATTLE !!! http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/footb...olved-in-a-relegation-battle-115875-20996097/

We simply can't go on losing twice as many games as we are winning or we'll pay the penalty.
Before you know it January will have passed , and if we're still in the same boat things will intensify ...... players like Robinho haven't come here to play in the relagation zone , and they'll let us know it too .......... Hughes needs to get the show on the road now , starting today against an 'open' Hull side ....... the time for talking is over , we need to stand up and be counted !

Today for me is the litmus test and the point at where either we start winning and Hughes stays for the time being. Anything else and I'm afraid that he has to go even the most optomistic of blues cannot disagree that Hughes's position would become untenable if we are to suffer another defeat. Time to be stand up and be counted and last chance saloon for MH for sure
