Relegation

[PennyLane]

If we win tomorrow we are nailed on safe.

I expect 6-7 points from Palace/Brentford/Watford and possibly 1-2 point from Leicester/Arsenal away.

Have you watched us play? ?

 

[MrGrumpy]

i know you are right with more important things in life mate, i just don’t want everton to go down, and would give anything if we can get a miracle

If we go down we go down.

Do Everton deserve to go down?

Really? Palace beat us 4-0 Watford 5-2
Brentford beat us when we played them. Our away form is abysmal and its arsenal and leicster.

I'm assuming you mean hopeful. Not expect?

You're still a young ball of spunk mate lol

My lad is 22 and he's flapping at the thought of us going down like his Mar when I ask her to go down on me!

Praying we don't go down though mate.

lol i’m not young and i’m with your lad here mate can’t we just have something go right it’s all i ask for

 

[ForeverBlue92]

You must be absolutely gutted at the thought of that!

Honestly not fussed regardless mate the days of us competing are long dead.

Would just be happy for the likes of @matty1878 more than anything.

The best footy we have ever played for him was under his hero Benitez, that says it all mate.

if we finish in the bottom 3. then we do

Our hope is that one of Leeds or Burnley get no more points this season.

And even if that were to happen (and there’s a little hope with some of Leeds fixtures) we still really need 6 points from 6. And that’s no easy task in itself.

I still think we will do it, but I’m starting to run out of sensible ideas of how it might happen and I’m now into Roy of the Rovers stuff.

We need ten points minimum or we are gone

Rafael will never manage a decent club again and doesn’t deserve to as he is now an old, stubborn , out dated , dinosaur that has no respect for his work colleagues, players or the fans of any club he mamanages.He

All this was true before we even hired him.
He knew it himself, which is why he took the soft China money in the first place.

Yet somehow we managed to bring him home and top up his pension fund.

Decisions like that; performances like 2-5 Vs Watford, 2-3 Vs Burnley.

Yet to some its all the fans fault.

Even now; you don't get relegated because you lost a game April or May...it's all the previous ones you stuffed up - but hey; 20 games yet lid,
not even half way yet lid,
give your head a wobble lid.

…and if I was born in Glasgow, I’d be a Scotch Egg.

We aren’t catching Leeds, Ma

We're a different bheast at Goodison mate.

Palace and Brentford will get a good slap when they come up here.

Watford is the tricky one out the three imo.

Leeds: people are saying they end the season with easier games after Arsenal and Chelsea. I'm not so sure.

Brighton at home, Brentford away? They are teams that can at least hold Leeds. Brighton have the 4th best away record in the league, taking 28 points and only losing 4 games. Brentford are unbeaten at home since February.

 

[MrGrumpy]

Then why worry. Whatever happens happen. We beat Chelsea tomorrow and we back in it.

 

[billyblue80]

Agreed . 40 points will see us safe imo.
Brentford, palace, Watford, Leicester to play where we can realistically get points from with Chelsea and Arsenal the write offs . A win against Chelsea ( unlikely) would be massive and set us up well. I just don’t see us winning away from home which will be the reason we will go down. Not won since Brighton away back in November? That’s truely shocking

That's it the away form has killed us all season and a lot of it is to do with a lack of mobility and a lack of killer instinct in front of goal coupled with individual defensive errors and the spine of a jellyfish... We have to beat Watford away.
