Will we need 40 points ?

[EFC-FCN]

We only ( i say only ) need 4 wins and 2 draws to ensure safety with 40 points, but could we survive with less than that ?

no we need more

Considering 13th place in the league right now is on pace for 36 points.......

We definitely need 50.

we wont need 40 points

Taking us out of the equation, and using Leeds being the next placed team above relegation, their run rates suggests 36 points….there will be resurgence for some teams…..I think 39 points sees us safe, which would give us a 3 point margin above the current run rate which I believe is reasonable. In my opinion we need another 13 points

There are 9 teams who currently arent on points per game pace to get to 40. A few will pick up the pace in the run in but it’s hard to see how the majority get to 40. I wouldn’t be comfortable on 36 but it could do it.

36 points. Toss a coin about stating up.
37-38 points. Possibly.
39 points probably.
40+ points. Time to fight the P&S inquiry to make sure we don't start next season with a noose over our heads.

No we wont need 40 points. It will be 35/36.

Saw this on the BBC website the other day, they seem to think 37 would almost certainly guarantee staying up (the 7% one should be 33):

 

[Swartzy]

We need a point more then 3 other teams.
That's really all that matters..
This is going to the final wk this season

Id be very confident if we beat spurs.

A draw keeps us in the mix

Defeats tomorrow and vs United and we'll be in serious trouble.

 

[ToffeeTim]

37 I think
