Relegation

[Ring master]

I know what you mean, but it really isn't.

It would obviously make life a lot easier than worry about others around us hoping they dont win

I know what you mean, but it really isn't.

I know, but getting 3 points there is massive again, so much pressure on the other two teams

Glad the season is coming to an end but in some ways would want it to continue with what we've seen this week. It feels like 44 games played and not 34.

And the exhausting art of endless permutations also drawing to a close. Feels like the messiest algorithm in the world. 2 wins and that's that.

Win Wednesday, Burnley get beat by Spurs, and beat Brentford - that's us safe and home

Or Leeds lose to Chelsea

I love this, I’m convinced this is exactly how it’s going to go and I am gutted I didn’t put money on it ?

It would...but I'm just saying it isn't essential. We need 3 points more and we're home and hosed IMO.

Wednesday is now absolutely huge. If results go our way and we beat Watford while Leeds lose to Chelsea that leaves us 2 points from guaranteed safety and 3 games to do it. We could be going into the Brentford game knowing a win guarantees survival.

 

[davek]

We need to target S'ton now.

I think we're almost done having to talk about Burnley and Leeds. Two games in hand on them and we could do woth the PL placings cash.

Can see what you mean, and i going by what i said earlier that i can only see Burnley maybe winning the final day but losing the other 2 i would agree overall, but i would rather get them Wednesday to be more confident, than hope we get it v Brentford who i think we will beat or Palace which i think will be awkward, Nothing is ever a cert and it only takes an unlikely result for say Burnley to change it, i would not be surprised if Leeds even beat Chelsea Wednesday

Not just yet we’re not. Hopefully this time next weekend.

Honestly, I am mentally drained from it all. Just hope we have saved our best form until the end and we win our next two to get safe so we can all relax.

If we beat Watford...which I fully expect now, tbh...just watch us steamroller through the two home games. We'll pay Palace back big time for that cup defeat.

It's safer to assume Burnley/Leeds will take unexpected points. Doesn't mean it will happen but it can. A point is ok at Watford but it really does negate what many of us thought was a surprise 3 points today.

We need to drive home our advantage now. Even if mathematically safe I'm looking for performances and results right to the end.

I want this absolute scourge of phoning it in to end once and for all now. I can accept defeat but I'm sick of death of players turning up only when they feel like it. It's not good enough and never will be. No more of it please.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

We win two more whilst Burnley and Leeds both lose one more and we’re safe

 

[PhilM]

Nope, we need two wins

We can all relax then, but until then...

Aye, I think we should be aiming for securing survival ourselves rather than worrying about others.
