I think CH has gone 433 because of our xg rate being so low.
We simply aren't creating enough chances to be sure of getting teb points needed in the Prem.
This season has been exceptional, because of Murray's extraordinary conversion rate, earlier in the season.
We will stay up because of that and our decent home form.

Yes, agreed, it has been marginally better this year, but quite frankly, whatever set-up you use has to be matched with mental strength, and I feel that by and large this is where we have fallen short, albeit with a few notable exceptions.

Elsewhere, big win for Whitehawk, 3-0 at Harlow, which moves them out of the drop zone.

Handball by Elphick in the 90th min on the edge of the box. Marc Pugh scored the penalty to make it 1-1.
The one that grinds my gears more after all these years is the one given against Calde for a foul on Marc Pugh on New Years Day 2014, was a great tackle by Calde that the ref got completely wrong. The ref was Simon Hooper who if I remember correctly may as well wear an opposition shirt whenever he refs against us.

Yes, fully agree. I was totally amazed at the decision. The Bournemouth player didn't appeal at all, as did no one - just Hoops who "saw" something "wrong." And I think he now refs PL, so he has been promoted?? Every time, I see him reffing on the box, I think of that dreadful decision.

Completely correct. Some of our players might as well not get on the bus for away games. And that has put too much pressure on the team to win at home. We should be capable of getting something at Leicester, where the home crowd is just itching to have a go at Claude Puel. But instead I have to admit I expect the sort of meek surrender at West Brom last season, where an under-pressure manager gets a free gift of three easy points.

A 4-0 win for Leicester will move us back up one place!

Destiny is in our own hands irrespective of other results. Not time to panic, yet!
Not quite. It was a handball by Steve Fletcher, outside the box, given as a handball by Elphick inside the box...

It's almost as good as it could have been after this weekend.

Hold the nerve boys, hold the nerve. It would be boring being safe in mid table. 
Was hoping for Burnley to lose, and Newcastle/Huddersfield to share a bad tempered draw, ideally with some (more) red cards

About 10 days I dreamt that we beat Chelsea 1-0 in the 92nd minute. I have no idea if that will happen or not, but it was a great dream.
I agree with the mentality point we have discussed this regularly in our group and we just don't seem to have the never say die attitude or anyone that can drag the team up.
