But isn't it better to know we're playing well-ish rather than having gone down with yet another whimper?

I'd rather play shit and get the 3 points than keep saying oh we was unlucky we played well and don't pick up any points

Fuck hypothetical situations. I'm more encouraged by the fact the team are still putting in a shift than just accepting defeat like the rest of us.

Yes... but winning negates all of that. Its time for wins, nothing else matters. We'd all take playing the shittest we've ever played and winning, wouldnt we?

Absolutely. I agree with b3nny that the team's attitude and work ethic is pleasing, and we're still playing well - but unfortunately the last half dozen results have shown that isn't going to keep us up. The next 15 games are about results and survival. Whether that means compromising style or bruising the odd ego with team selection is irrelevant. They need to find a way to start winning football matches, now.

How does playing shit make us more likely to win than playing well?

It obviously dosen't but wouldn't you prefer we played shit and won than played well and lost - it's about winning the good performances can wait until we are safe

Of course, but unfortunately if we play shit we are far more likely to lose than win, surely? Because that's what happens to shit teams. If we play well, then at least we have a chance...

I think then we can summarise this, much like the relegation=bad, promotion=good discussion the other day. Winning > playing well > playing shit > losing. Job done.
