Relegation 2022/23

[Mark Bisson]

i can’t f n cope. so we need to match what leeds do but score more goals?

say if we were both level on everything on the final day after the game?

If any clubs finish with the same number of points, their position in the Premier League table is determined by goal difference, then the number of goals scored, then the team who collected the most points in the head-to-head matches, then who scored most away goals in the head-to-head.

Stadium of light next season then.

Kenilworth Road, Riverside or CBS Arena more likely

It’s a dose of realism. Think you need to swallow some.

Were we relegated already as you said .?

No PL side just interested in this case from a regulatory perspective. I support Bristol City and am a strong advocate of FFP

If Everton found guilty why should those who are wronged not sue for losses incurred? Derby were sued once found guilty.

Question is who do they sue?

Everton have been working with the PL as reported, therefore it could be the PL who are sued if they have been non-compliant.
The investigation is to whitewash the status quo.

Clubs can not sue other clubs for breaking FFP rules, it’s the governing body who dish out any punishment.

I've been loathing the games and I've not been backwards about pointing that little fact out, but the mileage this thread is doing, can we play wolves right now? wake everyone up and let's get to business. Circles within circles, the sheer angst, whatever happened to the strong silent type, like Gary Cooper...

Not yet but maybe as good as this weekend. I don’t believe we will beat Wolves and I can see Leeds getting a result against West Ham.

Or to make you feel happy we will win 10-0 and Leeds will lose 15-0..

Nobody is hyping up leeds. Its more a response to the prediction kings who post things like they are finished and wont get another point. Possibly the same who said 6 weeks ago bournemouth wouldnt get another win. Or forest wont get any more points.....

There's more than likely a lot of life in this yet.

Of course there's life in the relegation struggle, but there isn't going to be a complete break with the form taken into the last two games.

You have to ask yourself how fans at those other clubs view our prospects.

They more than likely they see our two games against bottom half of the table opposition with nothing left to play for and think we'll stand a good chance of 6 points, especially after what we did to Brighton away. We wont get 6 points IMO, but you can see how relatively better off we are than Leicester who have to go to Newcastle, Forest who play Arsenal and Leeds who play Spurs. To me those fixtures for those clubs look like nailed on defeats.

OK mate. Keep enjoying a miserable existence.
We will be out of the bottom three by the end of the weekend. And will be out of it when the season ends.
That's realism

Where do you sit down in deepest darkest Brizzle mate? Do you know mad fat Jack the two pies at half time man? Sits in the Ateyo stand, likes a natch or three. Can't miss him, always buys two pies at half time and the size of a barn.

Anyway, Happy with how your season has gone?

Southampton spent big on Deadline Day and sacked 2 managers over the season and couldn’t save themselves

Leeds sacked two managers and made signings in January and look likely to drop

Leicester changed managers and made signings and could be virtually relegated at the weekend

Forest have spent like a drunken sailor all season but are still in the battle

We spent jack all in January, sold a player and changed managers and could be safe by the weekend when we should have been long gone with how weak the squad has been for long periods so none of the other four shouldn’t have a leg to stand on, Leeds especially after trying and failing the same stunt last year

Time will tell and I’ll be glad to be proved wrong.

And lets see city demoted to the bottom of the hockey league. There'll be a few bookings at saudi consulate's...

I really dont see spurs at leeds as a nailed on defeat. You posted that spurs only lost 2-1 at villa. The truth is they were lucky to not get another hiding when you watch the highlights. They got a last minute penalty. That was it.

i'll be surprised if everything just clicks. It hasnt in the last few weeks so i dont see why it will now. I hope it does though.

Guy I work with, big blue, I walk into the office today and he's printed out all the scenarios of how we stay up/go down and stuck them on the white board.

Think he's going a little insane with it lol

You mean to tell me someone has actually employed @Kev The Rat ?

To be fair, Kev's charts and permutations only illustrate how we go down.
