Relegation 2022/23

[Neiler]

Forget them.

Get the points we're getting at the rate we're getting them and and we'll be safe.

Absolutely it’s in our own hands.

 

[windymiller]

12 IMO.

Probably. I'd still like to get to 40, though!

Everton 1 - 0 Donkey FC

As I said, horses for courses. We should have beaten them on the last 3 occasions we played them at GP rather than the two we had to settle for.

 

[coollino]

the other teams win they’re game in hand we go back into the bottom 3 but todays results ( some have helped )

it’s still a miracle if we do it tho

Yeah all teams at the bottom will probably win that, too

 

[knowing your history]

Huge win.

However could be the last home win before the final day so not getting carried away really (draws v Fulham and Newcastle and narrow defeats to Man. City and Spurs are very possible).

First half was excellent and Gray goal being disallowed was a disgrace. Second half showed how limited things are without DCL, at least he'd have held the ball up and won some free kicks. Don't fancy giving likes of Man. City, Spurs that amount of the ball as they will create better quality chances than Brentford did.

It's another life.

At least we are making a fight of it. Only 1 point behind Forest now although they have a game in hand. Unfortunately they have a favourable run coming up and now we go into out tough run although the like of Chelsea and Spurs are beatable and United have huge fixture congestion so all not lost

It's possible. It just requires us to get the points at the rate we've got them under Dyche. Roughly 1.5 per game.

 

[Toffeeslam]

Absolutely it’s in our own hands.

We got some tough games ahead though and we need to start scoring more.

Today we should have won it at HT instead we missed chances and nearly got caught

 

[Wat Tyler]

Absolutely MASSIVE win

Points on the board, Matty, not all of the teams with games in hand will win them, most won't.

However could be the last home win before the final day so not getting carried away really (draws v Fulham and Newcastle and narrow defeats to Man. City and Spurs are very possible).

First half was excellent and Gray goal being disallowed was a disgrace. Second half showed how limited things are without Dominic Calvert-Lewin, at least he'd have held the ball up and won some free kicks. Don't fancy giving likes of Man. City, Spurs that amount of the ball as they will create better quality chances than Brentford did.

It's another life.

Southern softies Fulham will fold here. I suspect Spurs will too.

Nice prediction. You were adamant game would be won when so many weren't.

What do you foresee for the next four home games Dave as that will give an indication of what's needed away from home. Want to be on 34/35 points going into Bournemouth as then it should be in teams own hands to perhaps play out a draw.

 

[COYBL25]

We up or down then?

Bournemouth knock Leeds out of the Champs League spots.

We’re relegated with 12 games to go.

 

[Wat Tyler]

6 points from 12th to 20th wow

 

[Nymzee]

Brentford still haven't got a point from a game they've gone behind in first.

They also never drop points when they score first.

So thank you Sir McNeil.
