Chelsea game is 3 days before FA cup final. Will be a Chelsea reserve side

Leeds defence is awful. Put lukaku in there and he will tear them up

isn’t it my hearts a wreck it’s so wrong i’m like this

 

[Annaboll]

Well, Palace are working their bollocks off to do us a favour. Jut lacking in quality in the final 3rd.

We massively need Leeds to lose this, if they don't then I think its most definitely over

Because right now, if we stay up, we have to raise around £50m just to stay within PL P&S rules.

The EFL rules are much, much tighter. I thought it was a £50m loss over three years but in the Championship it's £39m over a three-year cycle.

Everton are operating right now having lost what, £120m?

Everton are hugely reliant on the TV money to keep going. That's what pays the wages etc. We have a huge, huge wage bill and a lot of the players won't have relegation clauses so we will have to sell those players way below market value and odds on would have to loan the likes of Gomes out as there simply won't be buyers given his wages.

The PL TV money will go. The parachute payment will cover some of it but hardly enough.

And we'd have to somehow get a whole new squad together that would be good enough to get out of that league?

I'm sorry, it'd be horrendous.

Newcastle have done it , Fulham are about to do it & Norwich repeatedly do it.

None of them had the 6th highest wage bill in the league and none of them have a huge wages to income ratio like us.

 

[Chrismac]

This game going the same way as Burnleys last two.. other side have had a couple of great chances to score but dont take them.
This is massive tonight tbh, Leeds win and they look a million miles away 7pts above us, even if they do lose their next 3.
If they lose this though they will be panicking, and brings them right back into it.

Burnley also have Villa twice with Gerrard who can't beat an egg, its us or Leeds
