we are only 4 points away from 10th & 6 points from 3rd bottom, so not really pant wetting time yet.

There is no way even Palace could get relegated given the lack of quality in the current bottom 3.

If there are no points in the next two games, 20 days till the next league game, thats when he will go, if he isnt going to see the season out, no idea who would come in.

That is worrisome (ignoring injuries and scheduling effects). It may not be pant wetting time but it's definitely time to start looking for a loo. I'm not sure continuing to do the same thing that got us to this point is the best strategy.
Success will lie to you but failure always tells you the truth. |

We of course got an impressive and exceedingly surprising draw at Man City ! However only 1 win in our last 11 PL games is not impressive at all and that was against struggling Burnley.

My avoid the drop target is still 32 points. Looking at our run of games its unfortunate that we have played teams on good runs. Our home defeats have come V Liverpool, Bournemouth, Everton, Spurs. Its easy to say we haven't won in 11 but we have come very close to getting additional draws and even wins during that time. I'm still not concerned.
