    Has there ever been any other season where as many as 5 teams had starts this horrendous?

    I know we aren’t the best but I can’t believe people had wolves as genuine title contenders. Too much talent in that squad to go down and there are way many worse teams

      It would be so spursy if we led the league 90 percent of the year and didn’t win it. Can’t fathom that happening to any north London team, now THAT is bottling

    Spurs’s start is impressive but I wouldn’t get carried away just yet. They’ve only played one game against top opposition (which they won under dubious circumstances) and their other wins have come against relegation fodder and bottom half teams.

    Also -and the fact that they can focus fully on the league with no Europe is hiding this- but they’re one or two injuries away from disaster, as their squad is thin and the drop off in quality from starters to backups is drastic.

    I do expect them to finish top 4 this season, but the best they can hope for is something similar to Arsenal last season: brilliant start; top of the league for most of the season; drop off towards the end to finish in second place behind City.

    Unfortunate to drop down to 9th. Was hoping we could beat Villa and get that 5th spot. Most of our upcoming games should be winnable as well. We could have been top 5 during Christmas.

    Guess I shouldn’t have been so optimistic.

    Just keeping half an eye on Sheffield United goals conceded. That is a record that I’d be happy for Swindon to get rid of…

    So much for not winning a game all season like so many said we wouldn’t
