Tokyo Sex Whale It is a great achievement to be 5th in the form table, however, I think the majority of us accept we are better lucky than good at the moment.
There is a saying that "class is permanent, form is temporary" - and our level of class will show at the end of the season.

melonhead :roll:
you dont get a massive turn around in luck that extends over multiple games.
anyone who thinks this run has nothing to do with the team or manager is a moron imo

Rumpole I flipped a coin 1000 times, at one point it landed heads 8 times in a row! Unbelievable! Must be something special about the coin!

I have the same gut feel but it doesn't stop it being a spastistics faiLOL.
Only time will tell whether it's a genuine improvement or a dead cat bounce and we'll then see a regression to the mean.

Thanks, this is precisely the view I was referring to.
Those who had us relegated weeks ago cling desperately to elements such as luck and "our level of class will show at the end of the season"when those with no agenda, that would be "the majority" blessed with a moderate knowledge of the game, know that for every bit of good fortune that has come our way this season there has been at least one example of misfortune and that citing luck as the main element of our form in one of the best leagues in the world is nothing less than laughable.
They will know, too, that "class" is about far more than a player's transfer fee and that Hope Akpan and Adam Le Fondre had sufficient to ensure we gained a point against the current European Champions with no element of luck involved in either goal.

Tommy Youlden's Ears I suspect we'll go down too.
But the Baggies/Chelsea games were such stunning experiences to be part of, I'm determined to love the ride and not be bitter at the end.
I treasure the decency and calm about our club.
