Relegation 2022/23

[knowing your history]

Looking a bit closer at city, obviously they’ve got Madrid twice either side of our game, but think they’ve been laboured in their last 3 in the league. Failed to put Leeds to bed Saturday, struggled first half against West Ham, and got a narrow win against Fulham. Think they’re due to drop points somewhere and hopefully another fully committed performance like today and the goodison factor can get us at least a point.

Brighton will probably beat them 5-1 the way this run in is all going.

 

[Street end man]

Great shout that.

Good looks don't go towards making a good manager though

Leeds v Newcastle is 1st up on Saturday 12:30

Forest play 3pm on Saturday v Chelsea (A)

We play 2pm on Sunday v Man City (H)

Then Leicester play on Monday again at home to the RS

If we could get a point from City that would be absolutely massive, we can see what Leeds and Forest do, hopefully they both lose and a point would see us above Forest.

Blocked shots, on target aren't counted as on target usually for some strange reason

Strange that.

If we average a point from the last 3, I think that will see us over the line, just.... whatever happens against City we gotta go to Wolves and look to win that game, if we do then the Bournemouth game we can more or less relax.

a draw and win guarantees safety IMO, because Leeds and Leicester would need to win two of their last 3.

I don’t believe you, not without a graph or something to demonstrate this scenario.

Won’t be upset if you’re right. Huge game which the crowd should be right up for!

Part of me thinks playing City may also put some perspective into the fans, it’s coming st the right time.

Just can’t shake the Fulham game where everyone just assumed we’d walk the game just by turning up, and got turned over with great ease.

34 i think could be enough with 2 draws

and the gd aswell gives us another point on them

Chelsea have the monkey off their back and will brush them aside, Arsenal will tonk them and they are not getting anything in Selhurst on Palace’s last home game

That's my view too.

Forest's race is run. We have to get a point to get ahead of them and stay there. I'd be surprised if that wasn't the case. They have the worst run in of all.

 

[The Binman]

So, is todays result what Uncle Bill calls - good times? Asking for a friend...!!

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

I'd defy anyone to make a case for that pile of tripe Forest getting another point.

My only worry is they're playing Lampard's Chelsea, and yes Chelsea should get the win but you just don't know what side is going to show up, they've been kin horrible under Frank just like under us.

In saying that, we're gonna stay up, I've always felt that way, even if it hasn't been pretty.

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

some of these posts are really so so daft.

we’re safe now… 1 point is enough …

them teams won’t get any more points…

honestly nobody knows f all

You seem to know we're going down about 15 times a day.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Gigantic win today. We’ve been asking them to turn up when it mattered and they did.

"This is Southampton's 11th consecutive Premier League season. Only the 'big six' have been in longer, which is why they were given 'long-term shareholder' status in Project Big Picture.

This was the plan to reshape English football, formulated by the biggest clubs in the autumn of 2020, but disappeared amid the European Super League row that followed."

Simon Stone @ BBCsport. Add him to the list.

 

[Wat Tyler]

No idea why it’s took Dyche so long to realise Mina has to play when fit but he got there in the end

 

[Librarian]

Leicester also may well not get another point, Leeds fixtures similar
