Relegation

[piscassbill]

What i don't understand is the following
Why would you agree to Benitez when most were against it.
Why would you buy players then not play them
Why would you buy players not play them and not buy defenders,
The reality is that there are too many people whom no very little about football.
The writing is always on the wall when you take on a manager whom has done nothing.
They learnt with Ancelotti then forgot it again with Lampard.

We will beat Chelsea. Not sure Leicester Maybe a draw, If we beat Chelsea we can do Brentford and Palace. Watford possibly.

Well I'm hoping Chelsea heavily rotate for our game too, as they play United Thursday night....still gonna be a strong team though if they do rest a few players

A lot of though Chelsea players like Frank and where managed by Frank… just saying

 

[BrendanGOT]

So is it generally accepted that if we lose to Chelsea we are down ?

Is it? We still have 5 winnable games after that. We're down when it's mathematically impossible to stay up

 

[Wat Tyler]

Funny how loads are saying we’ll beat Chelsea but when Leeds play them they will get zero points even though they play them days before the Cup Final.

 

[Bebeto]

Our games in hand has been our killer this season...it gives you a false sense of security but at the end of the day you still need to win those games...points on the board is what's important. We should have play newcastle and Leicester when they were at their weakest squad wise back in December...would have been a different story and probably 6 points more on the board.

just a bit of optimism and bias. Everyone's head is melted so we're best-casing the hell out of it! lol

I think not. I suspect we won’t win and will be 5 adrift of the rest.

But I think we have to win 3 in a row against Brentford, Watford and Palace.

I keep hearing this ‘mathematically’ possible but the reality is we aren’t winning 5 of our next 6

Its unhealthy how much space this situation has occupied my mind. Just want it over with.

I drove down Hanover street just after Burnley scored and I could hear the Pub going reds singing at the top of there lungs *Going down going down* that was the 1st time I really felt it and it was horrible.

If we won 5 of our next 6 I'd be simultaneously elated and furious

 

[Gaffa]

Just daydreaming about the team for next season

GK
Patterson Holgate Godfrey Mykolenko
Onyango
Doucoure Iwobi
Gray Simms Gordon

Enjoy your sleep: what a miserable time to be alive

Remember when we thumped them 3-0 at home and at the time was the biggest game in the clubs history? It seems like ages ago and since then we have had about 5 of those same kind of games. I still think they are a pile of garbage but then again so are we. Pull off a win against Chelsea and we may be cooking.

Yep we just gotta beat Chelsea.... oh wait I just remembered what season we are in.

That's certainly not my calculation.

I thinkLeeds are dogged enough under that maanbger to get draws like they did tonight. But wins get the job done in this situation.

If we beat Chelsea and eoither Leeds or Burnley get beat (or even draw in the cae of Burnley) I think the fight to avoid 3rd bottom get's shaken right up again.

Chelsea is key now. If we win and one of those two dont I'll be confident again.

I have a weird scenario that has crossed my mind. We get relegated, Then the 6 shisters at the top [Poor language removed] too a super-league.
With Everton being so against this League, Rafael Benitez declares it was a setup, I was deliberately [Poor language removed] as my uncle Farhad decided that. The sacking was staged to bring in that cockney bloke from the tele. Not Chas and Dave the other bloke whom shaves Ashley Coles nuts because he cannot reach them. You may have seen the lovechild pictures from Denise instagram account of Bill K and Andrew LLoyd webber with the litlle dark haired boy that was fostered all those years ago. There you have it yes, i know its far fetched.

Great 1st post mate , keep it up
