TomYam Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Too close to call at this stage. Leeds have a points advantage and usually play with spirit. Tottenham are sinking like a stone with injuries and now, possibly, some players make fake/exaggerate injuries as they have no desire to jeopardise their futures (like us in 1988), Forest simply lack quality and cutting edge, while West Ham have hit some form - but will they be able to sustain it (doubtful). Whatever, I hope it's Spurs that take the plunge (even though we have a splendid fan of theirs on this forum - soz). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Too good to go down" teams tend to be crap for too long and leave themselves too much work to stay up. These have a points advantage atm. Think Rafa joined as we were 5 points from safety? Went down by a point (an offside Aguero goal). That's kind of this West Ham team. They are playing now but it's a bit late. Yeah I think I’m leaning with you but I’m putting all my positive mental energy and visualisation into making it happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 We have decent PL teams down there for once. Whoever goes down it will be a decent side. It’s probably only Leeds and Burnley that don’t have much worth raiding. There’s loot in Wolves, West Ham, Spurs and Forest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Wolves and Burnley are gone, think we can all agree on that. Leeds are probably one good result from safety. Spurs are a point clear with a much better goal difference, so probably worth an extra point. There's also 2 teams that have to overhaul them for them to go down. For that reason I reckon they'll be fine, sadly. Would love to see West Ham go if Spurs stay up, I want to see a proper "Ever-present" PL team get flushed for a change rather than the same teams just bobbing up and down all the time from the Championship, which is what it would feel like if it was Wolves, Burnley and Forest to go. Though of course Forest going is funny for how Marinakis has behaved plus it might release Anderson, though that only helps us if he wants us again and we want him again. Bit poinltess from our perspective if he just fucks off to Man City etc. So Spurs >>> West Ham >>> Forest is my order of preference. So clearly Forest go down.

samptime29 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Relegation battle is class tbf. Its hard to call who is going down. That Spurs vs Forest match next week. Fuck me that is massive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Spurs will go down in my opinion the bottom five except from spurs are actually playing well and getting results. spurs are just treading water hoping the others don't get enough points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 It still seems too far fetched of a dream for Spurs to go down but flushing a cartel club would be glorious. Hopefully they'd do a Leeds and not come back for like 20 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Genuinely have no idea where the points Spurs need are coming from. In each match they have left I'm struggling to see them winning - even Wolves away. They'll obviously pick up some points between now and May but I'll be fucked if I could tell you exactly where. Meanwhile other clubs are fighting and scrapping away and look like they have something about them whereas Spurs look shit, broken and beaten, they're on the slide and no-one is going to do them any favours in the next 2 months. They look utterly fucked to me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look utterly fucked to me 100% agree, I think West Ham are the worst of the rest, however they look like scoring every game and Nuno has tightened their defence, I reckon Spurs are Knackered unless they bring in a manager that brings that squad together Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 It feels like its going to happen, but will we see the PL attempting to save their brand with some questionable refereeing decisions? They have their Big 6(TM) to preserve, unless the focus changes to a Big 5 or they pigeon hole Villa in there, they hate us too much. This has shades of us in 2015/16 too good to go down but misfiring all over the place, they've lost belief and they look like they've given up. Couldn't care less about Spurs but I feel for the supporters watching this car crash in slow motion week in, week out. Been there, done that and it's horrific.

vexred Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Tweet from Romano Igor Tudor: “Cuti Romero and Palhinha are out. Micky van de Ven is out. Bissouma has a problem and Conor has a fever but we hope he will be ok”. “Always something happen. Very rare and I've NEVER seen this in my career”. “But we’ll fight, not cry” They're fucked if Romero, Palhinha and Van de Ven are still out for Forest.
