Relegation

[MichaelEFC96]

Need at least four points from the next two because Arsenal will tonk us.

 

[lesbattersby]

That was so frustrating, on to the next one.

 

[davek]

2 points clear, Burnley and Leeds with an optimistic hope of maybe 3 points.

I think we may already be safe.

I'm happy right now. I had us down for two points from Chelsea, Leicester and Watford. Instead we've got seven and very much have our fate in our own hands. We're in a far better position then our team has any right to be.

Lack of quality raises its head again. Scrapped 2 wins with pickford saving us the maximum 6 points. Tonight when it came to go win a game other than just digging in the lack of quality is quite scary. I think every single other team in this division would have turned watford over tonight. Even norwich.

Last Saturday I was hoping we got a point at Leicester and won at Watford.. We got the 4 points but just the wrong way around… Still gutted we haven’t won tonight… they love putting us through it don’t they!!

 

[Bebeto]

Made it trickier for ourselves, but I think Brighton can take Leeds and we can get at least a point against Brentford, which is all we'll need with the GD as it is

If we win on Sunday then we can draw with Palace and that will do it

A lot of ifs...we had a chance to be brave tonight and wrap this up...instead we are putting all our hopes on 2 home games where anything can happen...red card, bad referee decision, var, etc...massive gamble

Need at least four points from the next two because Arsenal will tonk us.

Like they tonked us at Goodison?

They'll be flip flops on final day....and in any case we'll be well safe.

I expect a carnival atmosphere all round.

 

[Zeitgeist]

Another red card for Leeds and injuries.

 

[dannyboy]

Absolutely seething at everything about that game. The pressure if (and it's a big if) Leeds turn over Brighton will be immense. Could have been so easily avoided if we'd bothered to try and win the game tonight.

2 points clear, Burnley and Leeds with an optimistic hope of maybe 3 points.

I think we may already be safe.

Definitely not.

 

[bluelegend]

Sunday could be an odd day. Can't see Burnely getting anything except a hiding at Spurs. Wouldn't be surprised if Leeds pull something out of the bag against Brighton at home. Puts us in a v difficult position. Like tonight it may be a case of don't lose whatever happens. Personally I think Burnley won't pick up another point. They had their bounce.

 

[kiss the crest]

That game just went to show why we are where we are.

If 70% of this team isn’t binned we will be fighting relegation again next season.

What is the kin point of having to watch absolute garbage like that every week?

This 1000%
Except I will go with 90% of the team

 

[LocalNative]

2 points clear, Burnley and Leeds with an optimistic hope of maybe 3 points.

I think we may already be safe.

We could be in the bottom 3 again by the time we play Brentford.

Aghast why we didn’t push for a winner tonight, would’ve been massive.

 

[Neiler]

So we know the target now, Leeds can only get 40 points.

40 and we’re safe. Win and a draw at home, presuming Leeds win their next two.
