2024/25 Relegation Thread

[matty1878]

There is a wider trend here. The gap is just too big.

we’re 3 pts off it

with 3 hard games to come

 

[matty1878]

I'd keep an eye on Brentford. Eight ahead of us right now but played two more games and they have Brighton, Arsenal, City and Liverpool in the next 5 PL matches.

and we have chelsea city and forest

Not in the relegation zone on Christmas Day is something to celebrate

I actually see us getting at least a point tomorrow.

The atmosphere will be electric and Chelsea are very good bu=ut very iinexperiancd.

If we get our noses in front the stadium will be a bear pit.

 

[blue to the bone]

We will not enter the bottom 3 this season . Vault me !

I know: I think we'll get more points from those two tough fixtures than Brentford will in all 4 of theirs.

Bottom line: we have nothing to worry about IMO. We'll finish on about same as last season in the high 40 point mark and be about 4 places off bottom three.

Maybe but they're already on about 22/23 points? In reality they just need four wins from 22 to stay up. Won't be quite as poor away in second half of the season either, hopefully they'll get points at Ipswich, Wolves and Leicester.

The bottom three is quite clearly coming from five teams now Palace are easing away from safety.

How many away wins in that Dave? Just one in the whole of 2024 so don't improve that and will be a struggle to get over 40 points unless it's a great run in at Goodison which is possible after last season's finale.

I think the caution currently is that side has won once away in 12 months and dosen't win many home games until March-April in a season so I don't see a dramatic rise up the table just yet.

Hopefully that will happen in February and March.

Oh like the hard games we have had and took 4 points from?

We are 3 points off, with 2 games in hand, having lost the first 4 games.

Ipswich GD taking a hammering, 0-5.

And what are these 3 hard games? Nottingham Forest? Jesus we are stretching it a bit here.

We have just had an actual hard game at Arsenal and didn't lose. Harder than any of the 3 coming up, in Forests case by some distance.

Relegation with 20 points.

0-4 last one ruled out VAR

Forest are 3rd after nearly half a season but yeah, will be a walk in the park

Palace are one point ahead having played one game more? They have exactly the same record as we do with a draw in their extra game. I don’t expect them to go down but if they’re easing away, so are we.
