Relegation

[YoboCopter]

I dont feel angry or bitter because weve had plenty and i mean plenty of chances to get ourselves out of trouble, its all down to us

 

[PhilM]

Really hits home how not losing to burnley was EVERYTHING.
That ben godfrey schoolboy clearence haunts me still.

A draw or victory against Burnley was key.

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Burnley 2-0 up already.. exactly what we did not want

 

[BrendanGOT]

I don’t think any teams in this league seriously worry about the threat of Everton.

They do more than Burnley is my point. Anyway, Burnley and other teams gifting them points won't be the reason we go down if we do. It's on us to go and win games here. We could easily get another 12 points from our remaining if the lads from early last season turn up and put a shift in. That would see us safe no doubt even if teams gift Burnley points. Burnley will get a max of 12 points and a minimum of 9 imo. We need to do the same

 

[Frenk]

I don’t think our lot have actually realized they may get relegated yet. They’re like the rich people in Titanic drinking brandy and thinking they are too good to drown.

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

Agreed, but the people in charge arent going to blame themsleves for this, are they?

All they'd do by sacking Lampard is turn the fans even more against them then we already are. Even they dense enough to not see that.

 

[Serpico]

Why so much panic because Burnley are beating Southampton a team that you can never know what team will turn up. Too many people with queaky bums We are still ahead for now and game in hand and could be 2 and still ahead come the derby. We have just picked up 4 points from games everyone was saying we would lose. We have some very winnable games left and enough that should see us safe. COYB!!!

 

[ToffeeTim]

Where did I say bed wetting.
We might. But we have 7 games left . Tonight's result does not mean we are down does it .
People really need to get a grip or just not watch. Every goal is the one that sends us down. We scored a 97th minute winner and a 93rd minute equaliser lately. That showed bottle I'd have though. There is no middle ground with most here .

We have time to respond but I dont know if we have the fight to do it. We need something now from these 2 games and its going to be difficult.

Scoring late is great but isn't sustainable. We played extremely poorly for an hour yesterday. Thats why we didn't win.

Its sad, but its true. The most likely way we survive is rivals losing.

 

[wiggum23]

They don't have to keep winning.

One more - Wolves at Turf Moor puts us in the relegation zone. I really can't see where we get points from in our next 3.

Agreed, but Wolves a much harder game. My point was that us and Burnley are going to win games, it doesn’t mean they will win the next, just like we didn’t after United.

For example, Burnley getting turned over by Norwich after beating us.

 

[davek]

Bad result for us.

All still in our hands, but a draw now looks beyond S'ton.

Worrying times again.

 

[Bluerover]

Come on there more to life than Everton, what will be will be don’t stress.

Mate if only it was that easy - these idiots are actually influencing my mental health. I find myself getting stressed watching Burnley v Southampton ffs. I am sick of this shower - couldn't beat Leicester at home in a massive game for the history of this Club. Just f off you muppets

 

[Fansince1988]

So let me get this right about 80% of the posters on here think we are down, so why even bother watching from here, you might as well do some thing else, why put yourself through it if you are sure it’s going to happen.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Burnley 2-0 up already.. exactly what we did not want

Are they? That's completely new information

 

[garyw]

Burnley 2-0 up already.. exactly what we did not want

But they haven’t won yet

 

[nsno-chris]

Would it help if we had thread dedicated to grieving our relegation, a place to let everything out and join as one??
