The usual measure is the last 6 games.
Thanks to Cisse's late Fulham goal, there are 3 teams below us with no wins. But for that goal we would be bottom on goal difference. Those 3 teams are relegated QPR (good for us but Derby did the double over us in their record low points scoring season), Reading and Swansea who have only picked up 2 points from 18 since hitting the magic 40. As we all know, Wigan are at home against out of form Swansea.
Only Reading have scored fewer goals. No team had conceded more than our 16, QPR being 5 behind. No team has a worse goal difference, ours being -13 and the next worst being Reading who are 6 better off than us.
Gullit resigned after an embarrassing home defeat against Sunderland. Allardyce was sacked after a 6-0 defeat.
