Relegation

[kenada_blue]

you think only 10? from now?

It's been mentioned that West Ham went down on 42 points in 02/03. 40 points or more you have to go back to the mid 90s.

So unless it being purely "Everton That" where 39-40 points isn't enough, it'll be the first time in 20 years.

My view is

Chelsea 0
Leicester 1pt
Watford 3pts
Brentford 3pts
Palace 1pt
Arsenal 0

I'd take 8 points right now in a heartbeat but don't see it.

So we are 5 behind Leeds.. their next 3 are City, Arsenal and Chelsea while our next 4 (to mean same games played) are Chelsea, Leicester, Watford and Brentford.. yet 90% on here have threw in the towel??
Jesus Christ we give the players a run all season for doing the same yet here we are moping like hell when we've still a great chance of getting out of it.
We definitely wont stay up unless everyone at the club believes we can, and fights for it.

Leicester and Watford are away and we have won 1 away game in abar 18 months

Leeds at home to Chelsea 3 days before the cup final ?

Thats a hard one, players playing to get a starting spot, but don’t want to get injured.

 

[Ring master]

We're staying up! What a brilliant result tonight for us. I thought Leeds was going to win tonight. They'll be going down now.

Its a decent result if Leeds dont do well there next few, but off course it needs more than anything us to take advantage which we rarely do

 

[jinkyali]

Put simply we need to beat one of Chelsea or Leicester and hope City do the business v Leeds.

 

[tommytowne]

Only thing now is Watford are more or less gone, they can play relaxed Burnley are by no means safe and pressure is still on for them.

I hope they're too relaxed and we steam roller them in a fortnight or so.

 

[kenada_blue]

Palace in fairness gave It everything there .
With there goal difference Leeds are still just about in the mix

Meslier is an excellent keeper

 

[davek]

I dont think that was great for Leeds that point.

If they get beat against City or even draw, and we win we will be a game in hand and capable of leapfrogging them.

 

[Lob]

Does anyone here think Watford will beat Burnley?

I think Burnley might even win every single one of their remaining fixtures tbh. They have got the bit between their teeth with the prospect of sending us down. Everyone seems to really hate us with a vengeance. Don't even know why other than being brainwashed by the abysmal agenda driven media.

Wait what. All we need is 7 points. Doable. Watford we should beat blindfold.

 

[davek]

Does anyone here think Watford will beat Burnley?

What do they have to lose? And Burnley aren't exactly top drawer like are they?


If we beat Chelsea I think we'll be back in this.

And brentford and Chelsea are at home were we are decent. Watford have one more point at home all season than we've had away!!!

 

[roy vernon]

Agreed it’s out of our hands now

I honestly don't know if we'll stay up or not, but, it isn't out of 'our hands now' Kev. Burnley are two points ahead of us, but we have a game in hand over them. I know it's small comfort when we find it so difficult to win, however, it is not out of our hands yet. It would be accurate to say it is out of Burnley's hands at the moment. Admittedly that may very well not be the case come Sunday evening.

 

[Fansince1988]

Main thing is we're still in contention come Watford/Brentford/Palace. That happens if Leeds lose their next 3.

I think Burnley beat Watford.

I dont think that was great for Leeds that point.

If they get beat against City or even draw, and we win we will be a game in hand and capable of leapfrogging them.

We keep having that game in hand, but never seem to make it count, this time it really needs to.
