Can believe I’m writing this but tomorrow’s game is one of the most important games in the club’s history,lose and we are struggling to stay up

Nar, not even close to one of our most important games.

Winning doesnt make us safe and losing doesnt make us not.

There will be a game this season much, much bigger than this.

I hope we win tomorrow and there isn't a bigger game. But I have very low expectations of that.

You might be right, but this is a huge game. Its the biggest one I can remember. Maybe its just to deal with the tension, but I'm not buying the the attempts to play down the importance

When we start running out of games and NEEDING to win, then I will feel tension.

Nah, this is a very big game. Not quite make or break, but very important and I think will define the season.

I dont think you can underestimate the psychological significance of this match. If we lose, the pressure is enormous and confidence is rock bottom. If we win, our rivals below us will be under enormous pressure.

We have 10 games left mert. We can’t keep losing.

We have 10 games left mert. We can’t keep losing.

Thats just it, we can.

We could lose every game and still stay up.

 

[MikeH72]

Thats just it, we can.

We could lose every game and still stay up.

We couldn’t, because that would include losing to Watford and they’d go above us on goal difference if we lost every game by a single goal.

 

[ToffeeTim]

We could lose every game and still stay up.

Mathematically we couldn't

Burnley and Watford both cannot lose when they play each other, so one of them would go above us.

And Watford play..... Burnley

I suspected this was the case.

So you both concede that we only technically need 1 point to stay up, thus rendering tomorrows game not vital.

Thanks lads.

Thanks lads.

Only if Burnley and Watford were to draw

If either of them won we'd need 2 or 3 points depending on GD

So we can’t keep losing then can we mert.
