2 minute hobble from the nearest pub. Or in it.
I'm worried. 5 losses on the trot, plus, was it 6 on the trot at the end of last season?.

Wikki has GC's record so far with us as;
P51 W17 D10 L24. 33.3%
That's actually almost the same as his career record which is;
P193 W65. D51. L77. 33.7%
This season's record so far, if used for an end of season finish would have us on 55points. Using his career record to get a 1 season average it's 58 points. None of that will likely be how we will eventually finish but while it doesn't paint a very bad picture it doesn't paint a very convincing one either.

Both of those would see us safe in fairness. Not by much but we’d be ok on those numbers.

True Max but not a lot of slippage room either. I hope for the clubs sake that GC can turn this around and bring some stability back. That poor transfer window is beginning to show its effects.

Great post. It feels bleaker than the stats suggest because of the current direction of travel. Let's hope GC can turn it around and get us on one of his good runs asap.

Comfortably mid-table

Also useful to factor in that 12 of those games were against the top 6 finishers last season including 6 games right at the start of his tenure as the season was already well underway.

Not losing as opposed to losing is OK by me. 27 games not lost vs 24 lost.

I would snap your hands off now for 55 points this season. That would see us safe and pretty close to last season's total.

I think its got to the point where GC needs to change something whether thats tactics, style, formation or whatever. He's sticking with what he believes and what worked so well at the start of the season but its currently not working and he needs to adapt things, at least until form and confidence has improved.
