Relegation 2022/23

[Simon Buttle]

….I expect Leeds to be different under Allardyce. That already seemed obvious in the City defeat, they looked much more defensive and less gung-ho. After a weeks training I think they’ll be better organised defensively. Their problem will be if Newcastle score first.

Teams are fighting for their lives, so it’s more difficult to predict results. Logic suggests Newcastle win, it’s good that this game also matters to them but the outcome is unpredictable. Nervous time.

Newcastle will be looking for a result after what happened against Arsenal.

This will be up and framed in Fat Head Kenwright's office alongside our other famous good times such as a FA Cup final defeat versus Chelsea and a 3-2 victory against Crystal Palace. Oh and the Florida Cup.

I can't believe there are still 67% saying we'll get relegated.

I thought we was down after we didn’t spend in January. I started hoping we could survive after Dyches early results. Then when we got beat by Fulham and destroyed by Newcastle. I was sure we was gone. This result against Brighton has got me thinking maybe just maybe we will survive still not changing my vote tho don’t want to jinx it.

Against Leicester? We could have scored four or five.

I can't find it but between the Leicester and Brighton games I made a comment about how we're going to hand out spanking. I didn't think it would come so soon but I could see it coming.

I meant a week figuratively ie most of the season

mate we’re on the cliff of an edge

if we won’t get more points it’s bye bye

'Cliff of the edge' is actually worst than the 'edge of the cliff' I've been told Matt.

Yep. That type of analysis can fluctuate wildly with each set of fixtures. Just need to hope results are kind to us even if we are unable to get a result ourselves

 

[Loadsofchemistry]

Yes mate, their defo in Champions League form like.

Hopefully just paranoia on my part . Just got a nagging feeling this week will be one of them games like ours against Chelsea last year for them.

I think Leeds will deffo be more resilient in general with fat Sam, but that city result was an anomaly,.city absolutely battered them and Leeds scored a freak goal at the end, the score didn't reflect the game.

They've got awful defenders

The biggest confidence-builder in the Opta graphic (and also with the 538 projections), is that Forest have a higher chance of relegation despite being a point ahead of Everton. It's a testament to the remaining strength of schedule. Still work to do though.

'near the edge of nowhere' is worse than 'the middle of nowhere' too I hear

The peoples champions.
Remind me of the Dutch side of the 70s

Watching the match last night it took me a very long time to realise it was Real Madrid playing and not Leeds TBH
