Newcastle look relegation candidates as worst form ever. With West Brom being thrashed , Fulham have to get 6 points from West Brom and Brighton and then there’s a chance. Still no one coming in on loan or being bought just defies logic. So guys outside possibilities to fight for our lives. Just hope players see the incentive with recent losses as I don’t see Burnley losing too many. It will also be a good morale boost septa’s lost last three.

Never posted on your forum before but have had a large wager on the seagulls why, no matter how much you hold possession with pretty football,
YOU CANNOT SCORE, and a draw would suit us better than you

You wouldn’t be at the bottom end of the league if you could defend. So you are about to lose your money

And you can’t win at home Mr Gull !

Buzzi you’re such a loser pretending now to be a Brighton fan. Remember losing to us in the playoff final is a small moment in our history and the pinnacle of your team achievements.

I really cannot understand comments like yours Kevin. Any one would think that we only had two or three games left! Fulham do not HAVE to get six points from Brighton and West Brom to stay up, they need to get an average of about 1.2 points per game and that will give us 35 points the likely requirement for staying in the Premier League.
WE HAVE 20 GAMES still to play and anything could happen in that time. Other clubs or Fulham could get injuries, suspensions, Covid outbreaks and fans may even be back in the grounds in March/April.
Just relax and start panicking when we need six points from two games to stay up....

MST, what a sensible comment, as even if we lost the next two games, which hopefully we won't, we could still have enough points by May to stay up, but it won't be fun along the way, and my nails will be chewed down to the quick.

I agree if we lose the next two games, it doesn't necessary mean we are relegated. I think we would be in a very difficult situation and frankly would require a miracle to survive. I applaud the positiveness but imagine turning the clock forward 4-5 days and we lost both games and more than 10points from safety, what will some of you say in here?? We'd then need 1.4 points per game. COYW - let's win both games, then we'd only need to draw every one of the remaining games!!

Obviously, losing the next two games does not mean will be relegated. That is only the case when it is mathematically so. However, these two games are the proverbial six pointers. And, losing these games would tell us a) we are not good enough b) the morale and spirit in the team is not there and for those reasons it would be reasonable to suggest we would be heading down. These two games will set up the rest of our season. The other main decider will be our transfer business in the next few days. It is a crucial week but not necessarily a fatal one.

True Seagull' we haven't scored a lot lately and we couldn't hit a barn door from 2 yards at the moment. It doesn't mean that we won't score goals not ever again? A large wager you have you have on tonight's game? Seagull' Lookman says there is more to come, and i believe him. Mitrovic is starting to look interested and mean again. Our guys know the situation and they have the hunger. I wouldn't have said what you say about a wager? We are due to give someone a caning, and i think it might be your team tonight. Our football is prettier when we click together, and we are not quite in sync just yet.
I rate Wellbeck but i hear he is out? Good luck on the wager' i think you will need it...

The teams around us have been giving us chances all season but as yet we have not accepted them.

Aren’t seagulls classed as vermin ?
posted by Pete (Guest) - Wednesday 27th January 2021, 9:53 AM
Gulls are members of a large, widespread family of seabirds. Often known as seagulls (though no species is actually called a seagull, and many are found far from the sea), they sometimes get a bad reputation for stealing chips. But gulls are intelligent, adaptable and often beautiful birds.
However, they're notoriously difficult to identify. Entire books have been dedicated to telling one gull from another, but even these barely scratch the surface. Their plumage changes as they age and there's a great deal of variation within species. This page is just a taster, highlighting the key features to look for, mostly in adult gulls.
Which gulls am I most likely to see?
Herring Gull

Herring gull
The stereotypical gull. Adults are told from most gulls by their large size, pale grey upperparts and pink legs. In summer they have a white head, which develops dark streaking in winter.
Lesser Black-backed Gull

Lesser black-backed gull
Similar size to a herring gull, but often slightly smaller. Adults are recognised by their slate-grey upperparts (contrasting with blacker wing-tips) and bright yellow legs.
Great black-backed gull

Great black-backed gull
The world's largest gull! Distinguished by huge size, heavy bill and large square head that makes the eye seem small and beady. Adults have blackish upperparts and pale pinkish legs.
Common gull

Common gull
Like a much smaller, cuter version of a herring gull. Adults have pale grey upperparts, yellow-green legs, a dark eye and a thin yellow bill. The legs and bill are duller in winter, when the head is streaked grey.
Black-headed Gull

Black-headed gull - summer
Smaller than most gulls in the UK. Adults have pale grey upperparts and dark reddish legs and bill. In summer the head is dark brown (not actually black!). In flight, look for a distinctive white leading edge to the wing, visible at some distance.
Black-headed Gull

Black-headed gull - winter
In winter the head is mostly white, with dark smudges on the ears and above the eyes. The bill also develops a dark tip.
Kittiwake

Kittiwake
Rarely found away from the coast. Slightly larger than black-headed gull, with dark grey upperparts (paler towards the wing tips), a bright yellow bill and black legs. The solid black wing-tips lack the white spots of common gull.
Rarer gulls
Mediterranean gull

Mediterranean gull
Slightly larger than the similar black-headed gull, but adults distinguished by paler upperparts, scarlet bill and legs, white wing-tips and jet black hood (rather than brown) in summer. In winter they have a dark mask stretching behind the eye.
Iceland gull

Iceland gull
A winter visitor. Iceland and glaucous gulls are the only large gulls with whitish wing-tips (at all ages). Compared to glaucous, Iceland gulls are smaller, with a thin bill, small head and large eye that conveys a gentle impression.
Glaucous gull

Glaucous gull
A winter visitor. Compared to Iceland gull, glaucous gulls have a heavier build, with a larger bill and smaller eye, which can give them an aggressive expression.
Yellow-legged gull

Yellow-legged gull
Extremely similar to herring gull, with which it can easily be confused. When the adult's bright yellow legs aren't visible, look for a strong bill with a large red spot (often extends to the upper mandible) and a slightly darker back. In autumn/winter, the head is usually less streaked than herring.
Little gull

Little gull
Even smaller than a black-headed gull, with a small, dark bill. Adults have pale grey upperparts, dark underwings and white wing-tips. In summer they have a black hood, but in winter just a black cap and ear spot.

A very informative and interesting article, appears from the description some of our team could
be akin to the GLAUCOUS GULL.

MST as you know. We’ve. been here before and been in far worse positions ideally win next two would be great I’d settle for 4 points from next two but there’s a few points to play for. Don’t forget same applies for a few clubs down the bottom Don’t panic !!!

Seagull is right- a point does Brighton more good than it does us. We need to start picking up wins and Parker knows how important a win tonight is.
He's also right to downplay the importance, to try to keep the pressure off.
A point apiece, not disastrous, but we've shown that we are much better than 2 years ago. COYW
