Odds slashed from 5/1 to 7/2.

Watch this space.

I think we're fucked.

Yep, not a chance they'd go down.

Sunderland are on 33 points. 7 points from their next 15 games leaves them on 40 points, that's a mountain to climb for us. No chance they get sacked into anything.

You can't keep losing ''six pointers'' and ''must win'' games and still keep trying to make a case, it's just a bit naive and a bit simple really. But you have to keep believing to an extent 'coz that's what football fans are meant to do, so fwiw (and others will disagree) IMO Leeds are the ones we might have some chance of overhauling, yes they have great home form but that may not always be the case. They have Forest next Friday, that aside they have a very tough run of games, if they lose or draw to Forest and IF we beat Burnley we won't be far off them factoring in we have them at home still. All if's and maybe's.

After the next four games the lie of the land could be very different. 

Palace could be dragged right into it. And Spurs could be within spitting distance.

We have to hope that another team gets dragged into it. There's often a promoted team who start off really well and then results tail off and then get sucked into relegation fight.  While Sunderlands results before Saturday suggest they will be ok its not impossible they could continue on a really bad run.

We definitely do need a football miracle.

As Manners said, the 4 games starting with Fucking Fulham done for us. Would love to be positive, but it's so hard to make up the points, the swings in points difference with a couple of bad results is monumental at this stage. I can't see us having more good weekends than bad, despite the last 2 good performances. 

Forest will beat Palace, Palace will eventually get it together, and Leeds have their home form, which we can't compete with. I've accepted the inevitable.

It's entirely possible that one of the teams above us will go on to do the same 
Better to do it in Dec/Jan than in March/April
We don't need a miracle.

Yet!

Have to agree with Manuel. The 1 in 12 will very probably be the deciding factor in our fate.
With a little courage and conviction, that return could and should have read 9/12.

And that was a 100th min winner for Newcastle. Arsenal will be desperate to bounce back so would fancy them.

Need Arsenal to turn up against Leeds at the weekend.  That would make a probable defeat at Chelsea less of a blow.

We need to be two points behind Leeds going into the last game, so need to make up 4 point on them.

For me it's Leeds we should be targeting, we have them at home and they have a very tough Feb. Still not confident though, that 1 point from 12 has fucked us IMO.

I hope you're right.  Leeds were cruising when I posted.

Good time to player Chelsea. They are away at Napoli on Wednesday & then have Arsenal in the semi final 2nd leg on Tuesday.

We’d have taken a draw at HT.  Not ideal but after that first hslf Everton wete lucky to only be 1 down.  

How the fvck we get something at Chelsea gawd knows. We meet teams on new manager bounces a lot. Could have dome with facing Maresca’s Chelsea. Same witj the Mancs. We meet Carrick’s rejuvenated side. 

Still feels like we went down over xmas with those results but I suppose the “patient still has a pulse” metaphorically speaking. 🥴

Although we also play Palace, the timing of the Leeds game is such that we just need 4 more points than them in the next 14 games and then beat them on the final day. 4 points more in a possible 42

Should've been 3 but for a Moyes special tonight

Was wondering why Dewsbury-Hall wasn't starting
Found out after he came on
His form has fallen off a cliff

Nearly a second for Everton. They didn’t look ever scoring one so two would be a massive shock.

It's some what typical that the season we choose to go to real shit, so does the top 4, whilst the teams that come up display a strong degree of competence.

Looking like a 40+ points to stay up season...much higher than in recent times.

At this point it's somewhat pointless looking at other teams results....we need to pick the games that get us to ~37-38 points, and then hope Leeds are either 17th and catchable, or totally out of it by the last day.
  • Chelsea (A) - 0
  • Burnley (A) - 3
  • Man Utd (H) - 0
  • Bournemouth (H) - 3
  • Liverpool (A) - 0
  • Fulham (A) - 1
  • Man City (H) - 0
  • Aston Villa (A) - 0
  • Wolves (H) - 3
  • Palace (A) - 3
  • Everton (H) - 3
  • Brentford (A) - 1
  • Arsenal (H) - 0
  • Newcastle (A) - 0
  • Leeds (H) - 3
That's my prediction for how we can make it to the 40 points mark.  I reckon there's a good chance we'll need 41 or even 42 this season though.

That Brentford, Leeds, and Wolves game are going to relegate us.  The only hope is we've scored first A LOT.  14 points lost from winning positions, means we are getting ourselves into winning positions.  If that continues we've a chance at least.

15 games to attack and try and find 6 wins, and hope to sneak a couple of draws along the way.  Hopefully the injection of the Paco cսnt instills the attitude to go for it.
