Dan Gleebals Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I reckon Villa 39 Leicester 38 Newcastle 37 (at a push) - would still stay up by one point. Mackems 35 Hull 34 QPR and Burnley already gone IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackems 35 Hull 34 QPR and Burnley already gone IMO. for the mackems to get 5 points really need to do it in their next three games - possible yes - likely not a chance. Can't see them getting anything at Everton with their current form and their only chance is to get to wins from their home games which on the basis of their home form for this season is unlikely. I think they will get 3 - 4 points at most and if they do get 4 will go down on goal difference. They won't repeat the unreal situation of last year as I don't think that will ever happen again.

NUFC_Chris Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Hoping Cisse, Sissoko, De Jong, Aarons and Dummett coming back will be enough to get us the one win we need. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 My only worry is that a few teams in the shit string a couple of results together and get a bit of belief, see a glimmer of hope, which can give you a huge boost if you previously thought you were dead and buried. Especially when you're playing teams who have absolutely fuck all to play for. You know, like, uh, Swansea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 If we dont draw against Leicester we are as good as down. I don't understand why people keep saying this - unless you're being superstitious or lazy. It seems pretty clear that even if you lose all your games you're probably going to stay up. I've been through the predictor and this simply isn't the case. I didn't even give the lesser teams any shock results and if we don't get a point we go down with Sunderland saved. If we get one point we stay up in a few scenarios and are down in others. 37 points pretty much guaranteed safety and 38 definitely did. 35 points though and there's definitely very few ways we stay up. So we definitely need something and the idea we'll stay up no matter what is incorrect. 4 points from five games is all it would take most teams to overtake us on goal difference, which is more than what they're getting. Where is our next point coming from? That is the real issue here. I wouldn't back Carver to get a point playing any of the local pub sides. If the bottom three teams don't get any shock results they will go down. Sunderland might get a shock result, teams tend to have nothing to play for by the end of the season. It happens every season.

Southampton are still going for Europa, Leicester to stay up, Arsenal I would think for the automatic Champions League qualification, Everton are bang in form and have an expecting home crowd and Chelsea will want to put on a show for winning the league - just can't see it to be honest and in my opinion these fuckers are going down.

Yeah I know, I was just responding to the guy who thought you'd go down even if there were no shock results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdm Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I still can't work out if relagation is a good thing or not . I don't see any reason why it would. Ashley is still highly unlikely to sell and even if he wants to it will be far more difficult to sell in the championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one will buy us for the high price Ashley wants whilst in the Championship. It's only us who hurts in the long run. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Of the 4 points Hull need to match us, tonight is probably their most likely chance of their 4 'hard' games of getting anything. If they lose tonight I think we're as good as safe tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Admittedly, it's now starting to look scary. Still just got to hope that we can scrape 1 more point, ideally against Leicester. Then they'll be 4pts adrift, Sunderland 6pts and they've got to play each other. 6. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
