Surely WBAs form must a concern to them now,, they were full of it when they beat us, but not a single shot on target last night.

It's a strange one. Got some very good players and I thought they looked very dangerous v Preston, plus first 25 mins against us. Obvs something (or someone) wrong behind the scenes...

Michael Beale to move from QPR to take over at Wolves for £ 1.2m - set to be agreed and announced at some point after their game v Cardiff tonight.

I wonder where the 1882 Fakes will turn to for a replacement? Chris Wilder? John Terry won’t be happening :lol:

At least Cardiff and Wigan look pretty terrible so maybe we'll be okay.

The division is even more nuts than usual this year. Every time you think a team is shite and you think they’ll be near the bottom they win a few games

Brilliantly unpredictable but do think that Points tally to avoid the drop will be pretty high

Huddersfield are the only team starting to get cut adrift right now, Coventry can still close the gap with their games in hand

Man Sheffield United looked unstoppable not too long ago, now they're winless in 4 and just gone 1-0 down to Coventry, this season is pretty nuts.

Which is really what we don't want. These bottom clubs picking up point against the top clubs does us no favour. At the minute of all the teams in the league I'd say we look the most predictable to lose and drop like a stone.

Yep and 6 off 21st. It is insane this year.

Only 2 clubs have lost more than us. We've lost the same amount as 2nd placed Blackburn and only they and QPR have won more 9 & 8 respectively.

Sheff Utd picked up 24pts in 10 games recently. 1 in 4 now, 3 of those games v teams in 16th, 21st and 23rd.

Can honestly see there being a record low to make the playoffs this year and poss 50 plus to stay up.

There are 14/16 sides who can either make the playoffs or go down. We have shown we can win 2 or 3 back to back, we will again and if so it becomes playoffs talk again.

Over 3 defeats, we have only lost 3 points to 1st and 22nd has gained 4. That's not too bad when picking up 0 points.

No, no. Haven’t you heard? No one knows where we’re going to pick up our next point, let alone win 2 or 3 in a row!! :roll:

Watford utterly destroyed by Millwall. Bloody Cooper looked unplayable tonight with the flick one.
Millwall chanting "Your getting sacked in the morning to Bilic" :D :D :D :D

Any points deductions likely? Over the summer there was talk of half the league being in trouble, but has gone very quiet.
