Relegation 2022/23

[judge]

It’s not the Everton way at all. Last 2 times we needed points on the last day, we prevailed

I fear that the laws of probability (and Bournemouth's ability to score goals) are against us doing it for the third time in a row!

 

[zaitken]

The way I see things, the only possibility of us actually scoring are from set-pieces.
So I'd suggest defend for our lives and park the bus against Brighton and City and take any point we can get from them.

But we simply HAVE to take maximum points from Wolves (A) and Bournemouth (H).

1995 pages on this thread. 1995, our last trophy....could be an omen

Can't work out if it would be a good or bad omen

I think we'll get 4 more points. Probably won't be enough to save us, but you never know.

That's my conclusion as well.

If Frankie Lamps loses to Forest, it’s over…

 

[Mark barnett]

A point vs Brighton or City ( extremely unlikely because they won't let up in there pursuit of the title) then a min of 4 points against Wolves and Bournemouth might just barely do it goal difference with Leeds might be crucial

 

[SweetAmnesia672]

Based on a bunch of statistical nonsense, my guess for final point totals is:

West Ham: 39 pts
Leicester: 34 pts
Forest: 34 pts
Leeds: 33 pts
Southampton: 27-28 pts

Everton would need 34 points (5 points in 4 games) to be safe here.
If Leicester drops to 33 pts, Everton still needs 34.
If Forest drops to 33 pts, Everton still might need 34, as they don't have the GD tiebreaker against Leeds at the moment.

This could very well be the scenario!

Forest probably have the easiest run in. IMO any salvation lies with Leeds and Leicester

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

Quite amazing that 2 months ago it was declared we needed 3 wins more to survive after beating Brentford, and seemed doable from 11 games I think?

We still haven’t won since then and have reset our aims to a draw, a win, and shedloads of luck and some fortuitous goal difference shenanigans from our last four games. Truly abysmal effort really.

Sounds more like dementia has kicked in. Two wins are possible but they will come from the last two games rather than the next two. The challenge Dyche will have is keeping the motivation after the next two games to close the season off with 6 points from two winnable games

Not funny and not in the least bit clever!

 

[Ufotone]

Got away with murder last time at Goodison. We also held them at their place.

They'll get a game.

Still owed a penalty....

 

[davek]

Still owed a penalty....

An utter scandal.

Mind you, it kept those filthy gets getting their hands on a non-asterisk title for the first time in 30 odd years.

Every cloud...

Horrible comment from the head patting villa ferret
