Too early to be confident on anything. Although Fulham are not picking up any points recently, they still look pretty solid. Doesnt help that Bruce will maximum go for a point at the time. We probably need 4 points from Burnley/West Ham and I wouldnt be surprised if we got maximum 1. 

Shouldnt completely write WBA off either. They just put 5 goals past Chelsea who has had one of the best defences in the league sine Tuchel took over. They have fuck all to lose now, whilst Fulham/we are playing with nerves. It would be the worst case scenario if WBA/Fat Sam emerged to be the dark horse of this relegation battle, and as a NUFC fan you should always expect the worst case scenario to happen

Dunno how anyone can be confident

I'm down to a 4 now, but I'm fully expecting a few twists and turns between now and end of the season.

Chelsea were down to ten men though and were winning with 11. Freak score you get from time to time. Can’t believe some on here are worried about West Brom who have been total dogshit all season.

You said the same about Fulham after we beat Soton. 

We dont worry about WBA, at least not to the same degree as Fulham, but we dont write them off completely

[Fantail Breeze]

Win today and we’re pretty much safe as we’ll squeeze another win or couple of draws before the end of the season.

It’d also deflate Fulham further and I can’t see them getting 9+ points.

There is no excuse not to be going all out for a win today against a poor Burnley side pretty much already on the beach.

That said, if we lose we’ll still firmly be in the shit.

Have Fulham caught us yet?

[NUFCDoog]

As long as we beat Sheffield United we’ll be fine, could lose every other game and still stay up, Fulham won’t win another game, they’re even worse than us

They’ll beat us.

[NUFCDoog]

Won’t matter if we’ve beat Sheffield United and they don’t beat anyone else mind, which is what I think will happen

The good times are here.

[Optimistic Nut]

Back to a 7 if we lose here. I just don’t see us getting to 4 points clear before we play Fulham if we get nothing today, and I don’t see us not losing down there.

[Optimistic Nut]

3. 

[Yorkie]

Wonder what playing the rest of the season with the pressure more-or-less off is gonna look like. 

Fulham.  West Brom.   Sheffield United.     Good grief. Absolutely useless.

[Decky]

We're in a seriously good position now and have dragged Burnley and Brighton back into it. Will Fulham get to 32 points? If we manage to beat Sheffield will Fulham get to 35? I'm not speaking too soon because I said 0 when we were ten points clear but this weekend was absolutely massive. 

[andyc35i]

I’m just worried by the fact that we have 3 guaranteed losses from the last 7 so could easily be relying on the home game with Sheffield United game for the next win. Hopefully today’s result has destroyed all the hope Fulham had and don’t pull off a shock in those hard away games that they have left 

[Decky]

I don't think West Ham next week is a nailed on defeat tbh. With ASM and Wilson back anything can happen. But it definitely looks like SU is our next winnable game. 

[andyc35i]

Win West Ham next week and you survive and that shouldn’t be lost on anybody. What will happen again though is a truly negative approach to try and avoid defeat

[gdm]

Now on same points as Brighton and only 1 behind Burnley. Brings them both back in to it if Fulham somehow manage to get the points together 

[toontownman]

If we can get a point against West Ham that might be enough. 

The fact we are right back with Burnley and Brighton is huge. Shame about our goal difference lol.

[Miggys First Goal]

Would love for Burnley to get dragged in and relegated. 

[Colos Short and Curlies]

I don't see Brighton or Burnley picking up anything other than in their games against Sheff Utd. 

We'll beat Sheff Utd and get another random point, poss 2.

Fulham will beat us and Sheff Utd, question is can they scrape another 3 or 4 to relegate one of the B' s? 

[TRon]

We are now in a position where we can draw our way to safety. 4 draws from the remaining 7 games will probably do it.
