Relegation

[barneygumble]

Brentford has 3 games they needed points from, probably 6 at least. Newcastle home lost, Norwich today and Burnley at home.
They then have a tough 7 games before the last 2 v us at goodison and Leeds at home last day.
A poor result v Burnley and they’re still bang in trouble

All for the droppable points!

But we need favours, if we don’t perform. Right now, we can’t confirm it, but we need everything to go our way, whilst doing our job.

If we do our bit we’ll be fine, but that’s a big if.

This. Brentford is our main rival.

Some went for us. A couple went against. Thats the way it goes. Especially when some rivals played each other.

Leeds and Burnley losing are important results for us

 

[ToffeeTim]

Burnley and Leeds are our most immediate rivals. We need to come ahead of 1 of them. They both lost twice in a week. It could have been worse

 

[Dykovski200]

With the games in hand we have we should be fine if it was another club in our position I would be saying they would likely survive.

But it’s Everton so…….

Exactly what I thought, but I didn’t want to say it out loud.

It's looking a distinct possibility. We'll have to save ourselves at Goodison because we are pants anywhere else.

 

[DanEFC92]

I wouldnt but I mean that we have nobody to blame in a comparative sense vs. other teams. We're down there for a reason, as are the sides around and below us.

We are utter bobbins

That's the issue it puts a lot of pressure on home games if we cannot get a single point away

 

[MisterJ]

I think results today have pretty much gone in our favour; could have done with Brentford and Norwich drawing though.

Still, it's all in our hands. Win a couple of games and everything will look different.

We're going down.

 

[MikeH72]

We're going down.

Can I just ask what were you expecting today? What set of results would’ve led you to a different conclusion to this?

I expected Brentford not to win another game and go down. I still think Burnley will stay up either taking Leeds or us down. After watching the performance of Leeds today they could stay up. They are not gung-ho anymore.

We don't need favours. It's completely in our hands to stay up

Frank said not to look at the table for a couple of weeks.

So I’m not.

I’m trusting him.
