Sean Dyche, Stoney And Woany
On the whole we have just repeated last seasons results in the same fixtures over Christmas bar Mancity win last year - which was always going to be unlikely - last year - lost to Everton at home 1-0, lost to Fulham away 2-1 - lost to Villa away 2-0. Very similar results! And dare I say it - similar dissapointing performances.
We need to regroup and realise that we need results- starting with one or two clean sheets.

This group are capable of going on a good run, Everton have had our number for a while now, City better than last year, Villa flying. 

Thats why i cant quite grasp the morbidity.

It's mainly because everyone watched those games and how uncompetitive we were barring City ironically. The fact they all came back to back is unlucky.

We have West Ham (A), Arsenal (H), Brentford (A) next three and we took 7 points last year. So on the theory above, less than that would be deemed disappointing. What's par from those three right now, a draw with West Ham and two more losses? Or maybe two points? A win vs West Ham and the other two don't matter as much.

Fulham were bang out of form with a depleted squad?

Fulham had taken 9 out of the last 15 points available when we played them. I'm not sure that's bang out of form.

They were depleted but their form was average.

We would have gone above them with a win if I remember well.

Now they are miles above us.

O’Neil? Good grief the meltdown if he ends up here would be biblical. No chance.
