Tubestationatmidnight Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 We have to pretty much show mid table form now till May to get to 40pts. Burnley will be fine. Really think it's us or Brighton for the last spot and it doesn't really even matter. We did scrape survival then it will be the same or worse next season.

binnsy Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 IIRC from this time last season to playing West Ham just before xmas we only gained 9 points, if we want to stay up i think we need to pick up 6 wins from our next 11 games to stand a chance (then spend big in Jan and have a similar 2nd half of season to last!!)

BlackandWhite Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 As long as Ashely is here it is only a matter of when not if we get relegated again. Even if we somehow manage to stay up this season we’ll be back starting at square one next season again and for every season until we get the relegation we’d deserve. I have lost a lot of interest after that woeful summer. There is just no hope for anything and nothing get excited for. Maybe others will beg to differ, but being knocked out of the first round of cups and aiming for 17th doesn’t fill me with excitement. At least back in the day if we had a shite season there was a least a little hope at the start of the season that we could do alright. No such hope exists anymore. All that exists now is fear of another relegation and I am sick of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Ashley's chronic lack of investment has meant that the squad today is actually worse than when Rafa first arrived on that basis alone we must be favorites to go down, I'm still confused as to why Rafa hasn't walked tho.

Paullow Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 After Huddersfield and Cardiff, who are those who are less than say a 7 realistically expecting us to finish above? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonArmy1892 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Southampton and/or Fulham. Think Hughton will see Brighton safe. We need Southampton to not sack Hughes, but they probably will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubestationatmidnight Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Aye Hughes will go and they will get a good manager and be fine. Brighton should be ok. We would be banking on Fulhams awful away from continuing all season to have a chance, if it actually mattered if course Ashley is clearly going to cost himself 100m of next years tv money and a drop in gates and revenue of 15,000 a week next season for god knows how long. I don't think we will be back for a good while if we do go down Strange strange man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samptime29 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Think Cardiff and Huddersfield are down. Between us, Southampton, Brighton IMO. The games after the break are absolutely vital. We have to get at least 4 points from Brighton/Southampton double header or we're in massive, massive trouble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
