2024/25 Relegation Battle (Without Everton!)

The difficulty with looking at PPG and all that is the margins are so small that the data doesn't really tell you anything that the table itself doesn't already. I mean if we were to win 2 in a row now and the others pick up nothing then you'd say we were virtually safe, but if the reverse happens then we're in deep trouble. The swings on individual weeks can be massive when you're looking at 1 win potentially giving you 10% of the total points you need to stay up.
You make a good point about large swings.

If Southampton somehow beat Newcastle in their next match, their PPG goes up by 43% and their points total goes up by 50%. That’s from one game - after 22 played.
 

What levels are allowed to be spent for Everton then?
Owners have already said that PSR remains an issue in the short term. So I’d expect loans and bargains this January, and the spending to begin this summer if survival is assured, and the new commercial deals/new stadium cash begin to take shape.

Owners using psr excuse...20 days in in to the January window, and nothing has changed. We have psr room to spend, especially considering the naming deal for the stadium. Yet still looking for bargains and low down payments.
 

If we just start winning games more consistently and not just 1 win every 6/7 weeks, we'll be fine.

Next winnable game (imo) is Leicester at home and then that would be 2 wins in 3 games and that'll keep us ticking over.

We should absolutely be aiming to get something at Brighton, but if you say now we'll lose that but beat Leicester, I'll happily take that deal.
