morning after reality

[maidstone_hoop]

I just feel there will be lots of twists and turns before the end of the season and as things stand we still have as much chance as the teams around us to stay up! Hull, Sunderland and villa are awful and that's not going to change imo. We still have to play 4 or 5 teams around us and a couple who are bang average and not much to play for so we still have a great chance.
Everyone is on a downer because the form has been woeful bit the next 3 games we have a great chance to make a statement and put some points up.
We have held our own against arsenal and spurs who both have a lot more quality than the teams we have coming up!! If we can keep the level of performance to thaw standards against the likes of palace, wba and Everton then we can stil do this!!

I personally think 4 wins and 2 draws will keep us up!! If I being really honest I thinl Sunderland are bang in trouble and will just drop now and hull villa us and burnley will fight put the last place!!

I think as fans we should be optimistic at this stage of the season, with games still to go but the reality is...

we're sh1t again and we all know it. Been sh1t since Warnock left.

Charlie is our only hope and was our only hope last season.

And our only plan in a game is hoof ball to a 35 year old crock.

We run around a lot and show spirit and heart but bottom line...

Just not enough quality.

I believe in miracles baby. Not. After the predictable palace defeat i think nearly everyone will accept our sad fate.

You remind me of myself 12 months ago.
Why do you think we will lose to Palace?

[SammyKojoe]

5 straight defeats at home

1 away win all season

Last won at Loftus Rd 8 home league games ago

I think it's called realism. Relegation form if ever I've seen it.

Haven't given in completely yet but I wouldn't put a pound coin on us staying up. Haven't got the players to turn it around imo, add to that continual individual mistakes & it doesn't make a pretty picture.

This sums it up.

This is genuinely in our hands -the next three games are the real crux of the season. 5 points and we will be out of the relegation zone. (I did the predictor thing in a realistic way). From then on its a fight to the finish with eyes on the last two games as potentially winnable (if Leicester are down by then).
Of course, this is with the assumption that we can rise to the challenge in those three games. Many on here have already decided that we won't and are already planning their visit to "exotic" championship locations. In truth its way too soon for that as long as those with the faith keep it on and off the field.
Come on you R's!!!!

Oh, so its all good then. panic over, we are safe.

I agree....all them signings and all that money and this squad is what we have to show for it. We have been mugged off.

Because we lose every single game now, home and away. Its become a nasty habit.

Palce away = Huge game/Make or break/Defeat a disaster/Big Rangers following/Live on TV = Home win written all over it.

On Saturday, I sat there watching this team thinking what do they actually do all week?... There seems to be an inability to do anything apart from hoof it up to Zamora.
Ramsey's a top bloke but then I started to think, has he actually improved anything...

Then I started to think how I haven't truly enjoyed a game at LR since Warnock left. The atmosphere, the team... Everything was so different under Warnock.

Not to mention the fact that Palace have nothing really to play for. Its the perfect storm of advanatges for us that could potentially show this team in its true light. The mood on here come 3pm Saturday could be dreadful.

Not sure to many '$hit' teams can say they deserved a minimum 4 points against 3rd and 6th in the prem. But once again luck let us down.... for me if we carry on playing the same style like we have since CR came in, the only reason why we'll get relegated is because of 'luck', (and stupid individual errors) But think as a whole we've played a lot better recently, more so against spurs. Really used the wings (certainly not hoof ball imo). Dont get me wrong we wasnt world class but we we definitely didnt play like a relegation bound team either..... just need to cut out these individual errors and then maybe just maybe our luck will turn.

TBF it's like that most of the time. No need to wait till then.

Nick, I was there yesterday and Weds and the only style Ramsey has implemented and been more firm on by looks of things is 'hit Zamora'. Same as HR... You cant keep blaming luck on losing games.
Shocking defending is more likely the reason.. I couldn't believe what I was seeing for their second goal. It was like slow motion...

The games are running out. There's not much time left to cut out the errors and wait for 'luck' to turn. You make your own luck.. and we should start by learning how to defend.

we should have got in sherwood!
