Ketsbaia Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 A near-perfect set of scores today, although starting to believe Sunderland will get out of it. West Brom are shocking, cant score and have nasty fixtures. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Still right in the shit considering the next best team is effectively four points away. We can't simply rely on Norwich being worse than us. We've got six home games left and need to win them all. Might as well fucking forget about the away games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Aye didn't realise how hard their fixtures are, but they're the sort of team who'll nick a 1-0 out of nowhere against someone when you don't expect it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collage Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Two of the home games are against Spurs and Man City. And I don't trust us to win the derby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Real six pointer that one, we've now got ourselves within 3 points of WBA and dragged them right into the mix. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phillipealbert Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Back down to 4-5 for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 If we sort our away form out, I reckon we'd be okay, as we can't rely on winning every home game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjmc Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Still an 8 from me we can't string two performances together so could be right back in the shot depending on the results points wise we don't have any form of cushion or margin of error with the current bottom 3 beyond one set of results so could do the cycle of trading places for a while yet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 If we want any chance of staying up, we MUST start beating the teams around us... and we have Bournemouth, Mackems and Swansea at home, with Norwich and Villa away... Palace at home could be a 6 pointer by then as well. However, in my guesses yesterday, I only expected 8 points from those 5 matches. :/ I still think we may need to replace McClaren if we want to stay up, as WBA didn't really turn up today, but we still didn't make the game safe.

Guest chopey Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 WBA were shocking today and I think they will be dragged into it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Still a 6. We have to start picking up points away from home, even draws. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Still think it'll be us, Norwich and Villa going down. Mackems will get out of it with a derby win and then a rise in form. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 if we can stay out of the relegation zone by our first game in march then i say were safe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samptime29 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 We really could do with winning a couple of away games like. Massive 3 points today, we look decent enough at home. If we could somehow pick up 2 wins from the next 3 games, it would help us no end. Still in the thick of it, but feeling more positive after today. West Brom could defo get dragged into this BTW.

Minhosa Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Still think it'll be us, Norwich and Villa going down. Mackems will get out of it with a derby win and then a rise in form. This is exactly my fear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I'm not sure this changes my view on survival much. I'd say we're more likely to stay up than go down, but it'll be a bumpy ride along the 4th/5th bottom zone for a while yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Bailey Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Just have zero faith in McClaren putting a run of results together. Going to the very wire. Sack him (which they clearly won't) and we survive far easier imo. Vital 3 points today so fair play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I don't think sacking him improves our chances that much unless we replace him with the kind of manager we'll never go for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Need 5 wins and a draw from home games against Bournemouth, Swansea, Mackems and Palace and away games against Villa and Norwich. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Every goal matters. If we hadn't conceded 3 against Everton, our goal difference would be significantly better than Norwich. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 As it stands, we have the best goal difference out of the bottom 4. Only just. Makes a change to previous seasons where we've been way behind. But yeah, that needs to remain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Good result for us today. Last five or six games, we've started to play how Garde wants us to, even if we haven't got the results we've deserved a few times. Sadly, it's too late. Even more sadly, the CUNTS on our board have pissed Garde off so much, the first manager with a brain we've had in ages will be offski in the summer, I suspect.
