If results do not go our way this weekend and with a very tough game against Everton to come we are right back in the thick of it as far as relegation goes.
I know we should beat WBA all things being equal and that would more than likely secure our premiership status and it seems their cause is lost although Fulham had less points than they did this time last season and survived.
Everytime it seems we have something to strive for we fail to step up to the plate.
While Thursday is an important game as far as the season is concerned , Sunday could well turn out to be far more important.
I don't buy this we need to sacrifice a game for the sake of another one for one second.
Despite giving Fulham 3 gift chances through sloppy pathetic defending which we seem to do far too often in each and every game we participate in , in the first 10 minutes on Saturday we were 1-0 up against a team who had won one game all season away from home and scored 3 goals in their first 14 away games in the premiership.
We had the cattle and personnel on the bench to put the game to rest despite perhaps being somewhat fortunate to be infront at half time.
We were piss poor after half time and deserved nothing from the game and we will lose against WBA if we continue to play with that attitude and approach to our football on COMS on Sunday.
We go into Thursday on the back on 3 defeats and win lose or draw on Thursday I would expect nothing short of 100 per cent and an easy win on Sunday no matter who we start and anything less and we in for a fight for surviival that very few players look likely to be relishing.
Indeed.
If our form were to implode during the next two weeks, I wonder what odds on Sven being back in his hotel (in Manchester) to see us out of the season & safety in the Prem, while our esteemed new owners (who have only my respect) go about deciding who to give the car keys to for the next two to three years minimum.
