Relegation 23/24 Thread

Looking at that bottom three, I'd say about 25 points keeps us up.

It'd be a disaster. We'd struggle to mentally deal with that slide down the ladder.

This team is flying at the moment, but it'd fold like a house of cards if they were shunted to the bottom of the table.

This is not a Villa or even Brentford sort of team. We're just about better than the bottom 3/4.

….possibly, or it could stir a feeling of being hard done by and a togetherness with the crowd.

if the reported deduction were to happen now, we’d need to get 5 more points than Luton, Burnley & Sheff Utd by the end of the season to guarantee our safety. That would be a challenge that we could fix on in our own mini-league.

Said this weeks ago. The 3 teams who went down were strong. Luton and Sheff United have not go enough in reserve. If anyone can go on a little run it would be Burnley in my opinion.

I am guaranteeing you right here right now that we aren’t getting a 12 point deduction. If it happens I will get a tattoo of Benitez’s fat gammon head on my back. Feel free to bookmark this post and return to it.

Ha ha. This would soften the blow if we were to get a 12 point deduction. If its suspended will you get a temporary tattoo?

That would be great. We get to 38 points and offer the PL 12 points and drop any/ all charges against us. Result!

You getting a tattoo of Heavy Ballesteros would certainly provide some light relief.

I really didn’t see us getting 7 points from WHU, Brighton and Palace games. Lovely stuff.

All of the current bottom 3 need to at least double their current PPG to achieve 30 points by the end of the season.

That’s ignoring Bournemouth, and there’s always 1 or 2 teams who tend to get sucked in as the season goes on (Fulham aren’t looking great at the moment).

Keep doing what we're doing and we’ll be absolutely fine.

Every season we end up getting points that no one could foresee.

This is why calls for the manager to go after Luton were absurd.

Dont forget as well, A month ago some were very worried about the upcomming games, from The Derby onwards after we messed up in games we should have won.

Come on mate, no chance they are getting that, Luton/Burnley if they do go on a run will be very short, you adding to the hysteria some love, nor is a 12 point deduction happening just because of a made up report

I agree on the second point, but if you think none of the bottom 3 can ut together a run to get 33/34 points then you need to look at the performances out in by Luton lately. They look a lot more solid now.

We know these players are not mentally resilient. Players look for excuses to clock off and that would hand it to them.

The relaxed attitude to points deductions on this forum is alarming.

….not sure there’s a relaxed attitude, perhaps some are working on a worst case scenario and thinking we might still have a chance.

You're not looking hard enough.

The factoring in of a 6-12 point deduction is commonplace on here.
