Relegation 2022/23

[Yarrgh]

I refuse to allow a cockney and a fella from Yorkshire to mock our accent.

At least it's not a Leicester pi55 take.

 

[Lob]

As crap as we are, fortunately for us there are 3 teams even crapper than us this season i.e Southampton, Leicester and Leeds. We will win our final game and we deserve to stay up based on that but massive changes need to commence next week starting with ownership and the board and then right across the structure of the club. Nothing can justify being in a relegation battle for 2 seasons on the trot. We have to reset and start again.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Tony Pulis was on Sky earlier saying the same that all the pressure was on Everton. Nonsense, the pressure is on all just that Everton have more escape routes available

Smith was also saying Leicester's draw put the pressure on Everton, although he may just have been trying to style out the madness of playing for a draw that kept things out of their own hands.

Reality is the points situation makes it must win for everyone so I don't see the pressure being any more or less for us really: the other two must win to have any chance, we must win to definitely be safe, in a way there is more pressure because we're the frontrunners and have it in our own hands so are the team that could blow it, but on the other hand there is less pressure because we can lose and stay up. So I'd say it broadly evens out.

It just puts us in a position where we can be a little more cagey about the whole thing. If they both go down two early, we can patiently play for a 1-0 in case one comes roaring back. If Leicester goes up two, we go for broke.

The pressure is the same regardless.

Its like waiting for Christmas. Three more sleeps yet

More like waiting for a court decision

 

[PITA]

….yep, it was nearly a master plan from Smith but he might just have done enough to keep Leicester up with that team selection that was being laughed at on here.

I think only one team will get 4 points from their last 2 games and that team will stay up. We will draw & Goal difference will ultimately work in Leicester’s favour.

So Leeds are down then.

So Leeds are down then.

In fairness, Leeds need a miracle with the wind behind it to stay up.

Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment
Would you capture it, or just let it slip? Yo

…I think so, can’t see them getting the results they need.

 

[Armaghtoffee]

Dom’s spaghetti.

Spaghetti legs more like.

 

[Leedsfan1919]

In fairness, Leeds need a miracle with the wind behind it to stay up.

And also need a team capable of winning a game, which we don't have.

I remember everyone on here acting like you’d won the World Cup because you only lost 2-1 at City.

 

[Moomin]

And also need a team capable of winning a game, which we don't have.

I'm going to be honest given the choice of Everton or Leeds to be relegated I would have to choose your lot.

 

[Curtis]

The worst news for you is that Dier is out with a groin injury otherwise your chances would have been much better.

I an always baffled that regardless the manager , he always ends up on the pitch he's the spurs version of Micheal keane. I think spurs can still win though has Richie been starting at all recently?
