It's a classic NSC overreaction, but at the same time, I think it's justified to be angry at the manner of defeat last night. Watford are a good side there's no denying that, but when only 1/2 players turn up it's very disappointing.

6 points from the play offs, 5 points from 20th - it's what we do from now on that matters.

Agreed, but the point is we are getting worse, not better and team morale is shite.

Perhaps they should go on a bonding trip as they don't appear to even know each other.

Christ. How did CP, Watford and Millwall attain those extra points, goals and wins over us?

I thought we were the big club with 26,000 gates, 3,000 corporates, no interest bearing or external debt, and the ability to spend
£2.5m (rising to £3.25m) on a 'striker'.

Its not all gloom and doom for me at all, considering where we've come from. We were beaten comfortably last night by a very good Watford team but then again we've beaten some good teams ourselves comfortably too. We are a very, very good side with many talented players, and are just one striker away (who we may be signing this January) from converting enough chances to a play off place.

In the whole of Oct, Nov and Dec, which good teams did we beat?

Admittedly resent results haven't been great but it's the results over the course of a season which count, not just short term. Every team has hot and cold spells and this is just a cold one for us at the moment. Sadly its lasting a fair while but hopefully the new year will bring a stream of good results, good signings and propel us up the table into the play offs.

3 points on new years day will change the face of it all.

Cheer up mate!

Not that bad at all at the moment BUT it has the potential to be bad if we do not address our weaknesses asap in January.

Honestly now,,,,,,would you really trust Poyet if you gave him £3m to go and get the right player???This is the man who chased Harley for months, signed Sandaza, Holroyd and others and let Murray walk up the road, when whatever anyone says, he wanted to stay!!!

No things aren't that bad and yes they could be an awful lot worse ..... but people are still entitled to come on here and let off steam after another defeat. From a fan's perspective football is all about passion, involvement and supporting your club. People with that mindset can't be expected to just grin and bear it and say "look how far we've come!"
