!0. If we really did try to replace Carver and fail, he's going to have even less credibility and respect from the players then he had already (if that's even possible)

 

This whole scenario is playing out so perfectly that it's almost as if we are trying to get relegated. Every single move we've made since January has been right out of the playbook.

John Carver FC:-

Could do anything, it is impossible to say how we'll perform at the moment.

I expect anything from 0-5 points from out last three games, we have no chance of winning more than one.

Putting us somewhere from 35 - 40 points.

 

Leicester:-

Play QPR on the last day (who will already be down) so they'll win that

Will get something against Sunderland and/or Southampton

Fully expect Leicester to get 3-6 more points putting them on 37-40 points

 

Hull:-

Hopefully, Everton will beat Sunderland in the early kick off (otherwise Burnley will be relegated before they kick off). Expect Burnley to put up a fight and get a draw if they are still in the fight.

If they win tonight (which I don't expect them to) we are firmly in the brown stuff.

They will lose or draw all of their other games, maybe getting 2-4 points along the way (at the very most) putting them on 36 - 38 points.

 

Sunderland:-

Could quite easily beat Everton as both teams have potential to be really awful, if they do we are screwed.

Cannot see them beating Leicester, I expect a draw or away win.

Will lose their other two games, so will pick up somewhere between 2-6 points along the way (at the very most) putting them on 35 - 39 points.

 

Burnley and QPR will both be relegated either this weekend or next and their own relevance is putting in performances against the clubs around us to do us a favour.

 

Therefore, if we lose our remaining three games, the only way we'll survive is if Sunderland pick up 2 or less points and get thumped with more goals than us.

1 win and we are safe, as the likelihood of all of the other 3 getting 4 or more points is ridiculous (especially with Leicester playing Sunderland).

1-2 points and it'll be touch and go.

 

I think our fate will be decided ultimately by Everton v Sunderland due to the knock of effect to other fixtures (their confidence, Burnley's performance against Hull etc).

There's no need for particularly deep analysis now.  Anyone who thinks we're getting another point with Carver in charge is dreaming.  Anyone who thinks the other teams won't get 2 points from 3-4 games is also dreaming.  We're down, simple as that.  The club signed our relegation notice with that statement today.

Looking at the table and fixtures gives slight hope but everything else, including gut feeling, points to relegation.

 

We're a club in disarray and even though Sunderland could very easily lose all 4 games, its hard to trust Everton.

All remaining teams to play us smell blood. They know we are wounded animal in distress. They simply have to apply pressure and we will fall apart, perfect for the taking.

If I was one of the teams in relegation trouble I'd be looking at our form and smelling blood. Sunderland have definitely been given a massive boost by their victory over us and our spineless capitulation under Carver. It will be the same for West Brom, Hull and Villa.

Go down on the last day of the season and there will be hell on. The stadium will be demolished, players attacked, protests outside the ground and horses galloping for their lives.

 

Well for those with any fight left in them. The rest will no doubt be making plans for away trips in the championship.

I've just had a decent sized bet on us to go down at 200/1  - at the very least will be able to lay it off at much shorter odds after Liverpool and Spurs hump us into oblivion.

 

Glad I got on this one - think I'm going to let it ride, can see the odds coming in a fair bit more over the next few weeks...

 

I'm so conflicted right now, got 20 quid on at 200/1, if we go down I win 4 grand  :lol:

Does it even matter if we get relegated, the only reason we are in the premier league is to advertise mikes glorified sweat-shop. I understand if we go down it's no guarantee fat ash leaves but all that free advertising that's beamed worldwide wont be so valuable.

Imagine losing 11 games in a row and still surviving.

 

11 would be the worst in our entire history too wouldn't it? That'd be some achievement in 2015.
