WBA Played poorly, but so did they. Deserved a point.
Spurs Played OK, Spurs didn't, deserved a point.
Bournemouth started poorly, think draw was fair overall.
Boro we were worth the win.
Stoke fair result
Sunderland recovered from our mistakes, just edged it.
Everton deserved to win, 2 big decisions didn't go our way.
West Ham started poorly but felt we deserved the win overall. Pen miss was massive.
Leicester paid for a poor 25 minute spell and silly mistakes.
Liverpool they deserved the win, but the penalty decision was massive at that time.
Burnley silly mistakes gave us a mountain to climb, but deserved a point at least.
Man City deserved a point but made silly errors again.

I know many will disagree with my short assessments, but we're all entitled to mistakes I'm basing it on this season, not this year, so let's for a while forget the calender year stuff.
So in the perfect get what you deserve World we should have 20 pts or so. Problem is it ain't an ideal World and you can't keep shooting yourself in the foot and hope to stay up.
This is why I'm still confused. Results mean he has to go cos there's no way we should of lost 7 games out of 12, but the performances have been worth more and some of the football has been good IMO.
You look at Villa last season who pulled the trigger early and they actually got worse. I don't believe SP will go for anyone without premier league experience, so the list could be very uninspiring, but if you wait too long it could be too late.
The lack of defenders and sending every young one out on loan is down to the manager and the transfer committee, or whatever it is we have. Not signing players with leadership abilities is down to them also, but the lack of a disciplinarian coach is down to the manager. Being one of the lads is all well and good as long as you have the opposite for balance and Millen isn't it. It's what I believe is what needs addressing urgently, someone the players respect but are fearful of.
All our good performances are being undone by poor concentration mistakes. We lack focus and organisation under pressure. Teams reflect their manager's personality and AP comes across as a confident carefree type of guy who lacks discipline himself, his run ins over the years bear that out. Is it any wonder his teams do the same?
I know many dislike him, but none of us actually know him, so personal digs are not really relevant. He's the manager of our team, who is doing his best. Whether that's good enough is the question?
Sorry it's a long post.

We have been exceptionally poor in defense and not ruthless enough up front!
For starters Pardew must play 2 up front, he does it when we go behind so bloody do it from the start...
The lack of wins will send us down if its not sorted out soon.

Dreadful first-half performances and terrible defensive errors have been the story of our season. We definitely deserve more points than we have, but if we don't play well for the full 90 minutes and gift the opposition goals then we'll continue giving away points.

We've concede first in 10 of our 12 PL games this season, which certainly suggests that he gets something wrong with his initial selection / tactics. (We also conceded first in the last 5 games of last season, so this isn't something new with AP).

We are probably 3 pts off from where we should be at the moment,which is 10th,mid-table. You could say that all the teams above us will finish most seasons above us apart from probably Burnley,Bournemuff,Watford and Middlesbrough. Then below us maybe just Wham to be above us. So on this thinking we move up 3 places to 13th. We are on a par with teams such as WBA, Stoke and Leicester and our position with these teams will be determined by our results against them. So to sum up,our final place in the league will realistically be 13th with possibly 10th if our performances improve! Therefore I'm sticking with Pardew! Ollie's Dad,Ash.

You rarely get 90 minutes of perfection. We never really seem to take advantage of our good spells and always pay for our mistakes. It's Palace I suppose.

It makes me laugh when I hear talk of what we deserve and that we are too good to go down,
There is an old saying that says " You get what you deserve" and that's exactly where we stand now.
We constantly hear excuses about why we lost but the truth is that we have a squad who should be more succesful but they are failing so whose fault is that? It has to be the manager !! The buck stops with AP and if he can't get results in the next 3 games and we drop into the bottom 3 then his days are numbered.

Totally agree,
A loss is a loss,a draw is a draw,and a win?
Sorry I've forgotten what a win is!
