Relegation

[Zatara]

Heres something a bit weird

Burnleys April fixtures
A Norwich 10th
A West Ham 17th
H Southampton 21st
H Wolves 24th
A Watford 30th

Evertons April fixtures
H Leicester 20th
A Liverpool 24th

That leaves us with 6 games in May with Burnley only having 4 matches.

I wonder if that could help us knowing what we need to do?

It also gives Lampard more time on the training ground.

If we beat Leicester we should be fine. Mina is coming back too.

 

[tadpole]

Well if one had to win, I think everyone here would rather have Watford

You actually looked at the league table recently mate ? (Not something that I recommend doing too often btw)

 

[lungo]

If only we could have avoided defeat at burnley. I thought that was as crucial as a win. That table would look so much better and my sleepless nights likewise.

It was braindead. From Fat Franck. 15 minutes to go you have to close shop and take the draw. Not risking to loose was the good decision. Take of Bambi and bring in Delph. Perhaps even Coleman for Kenny.

 

[MikeH72]

You are wanting us to win though?

Erm, yes?

 

[Thomasc]

you changing your mind now mate?

It’s in the hands of the players.

Of course I don’t want us to go down really. I was just sick of everything to do with the club.

If we went down though it would be thoroughly deserved.

 

[Thomasc]

If we beat Leicester then Leeds are still in trouble too. So are Brentford.

We will do Leicester

 

[Mademan]

Just imagine if we beat utd, Watford list to Leeds and Burnley didn't beat Norwich, just imagine. COYFB

Nearly there ?

I wonder if that could help us knowing what we need to do?

Only if you’re not playing catch up. If we’re 3 or 4 points behind with two games in hand we’re in real trouble.

He cant really do much about Godfreys awful slice.
Either way. I thought we'd gone. We're now a bit more alive.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Hindsight is wonderful, but seeing out the West Ham and Burnley games for draws would make life feel so much more comfortable right now.

Yes we can do this for many games but we can also say imagine Iwobi didn’t score against Newcastle. We are where we are, I feel a LOT better about our chances after today. A win, a clean sheet, and the players showing that they care.

 

[DL100]

Great win tonight. My advice is to enjoy it and enjoy your night. Forget relegation worries for now ?

 

[Milk]

Annoying that we squandered a “healthy” goal difference compared to Burnley with the loss to spurs … and the likely heavy one to the RS. Hope it isn’t crucial in the final reckoning

With a draw Watford and Burnley could take each other down last night
