2024/25 Relegation Thread

[knowing your history]

Also anderson red today so is out against us at the back tough game but at home ao fingers crossed can win

Will certainly get chances v Fulham. They put on Issa Diop straight after the red and he scored an own goal so they won't be as secure on crosses and set pieces without Anderson.

Fancy Doucs to score next week.

Nice to have extended the gap to over a win.

There are 4 or 5 worse teams than us IMO. It's important we keep picking up results and building a gap.

 

[Groucho]

One win off top half

 

[ToffeeTim]

1PPG is the minimum you need and it shouldn't have taken us as long as it has with a fairly nice schedule. Next four are a BIG opportunity to get well ahead of the run rate ahead of a very difficult christmas period.

38 points gets you safe. 35 probably does too. We should be aiming for closer to mid 40s though

For next three I'd certainly be looking at win at Southampton and draw at West Ham (Kudus suspended and don't think Lopetegui will be lasting too much longer).

Fulham a bit like Newcastle the other week, could go either way. Will have chances to score but will also have periods under pressure.

Anything better and it's at least 14 points from 11 games so you're comfortably staying up with that points ratio.

Fulham have always been difficult customers for us. Need to get on top of them early.

Very good day for us. Need to keep pushing on through this kinder run of games to get a big cushion so we're not getting dragged in when the hard games come thick and fast.

It’s all about getting the points on the board before December. By January if we are well clear then we can start to dream about new stadiums and spitfires.

 

[brieverton]

Every win is big for us. We've come from behind to win and win away neither of which are common for us. And in the aftermath of some sickening defeats. Look more solid at the back as well. Several players to come back into the reckoning too.

Could have been better but with the losses too we have shown we should have enough.

Just need to maximise points return over this run of games in November.

Things look better than they did.

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

Where are the bedwetters tonight?

 

[mmmmsnouts]

It's not going to be fun to watch but they will be safe as houses. From the looks of things it might not even take 30 points to stay up.

 

[jinkyali]

Saints, Ipswich, Wolves, Palace won zero times in 30 games.

 

[Infernus]

Where are the bedwetters tonight?

Hello. Not wet, I remain moist.

 

[Davideeyore]

I'd like to think we're too good for this thread but I'll always be fearful with Dyche as manager. I think we've a difficult run in December we need to get some points on the board. Winning at Ipswich for me was a must win I think won't accept anything other than a win next week either. Against Fulham it's time we got a result against them.
