matta Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 We need to win 7/15 to get over 40 points. We have won 5/23 with 12 losses. Cant see anything that suggest the latter stat is about to change. Going down? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 5 wins with no draws puts us on 36. And naturally we'll draw a couple. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Still at 3, we have enough to get out of it, we'll probably be In and around it all season, but well get out of it. 3 We have 15 game left, were a point off Swansea and everything just got a lot tighter down the bottom, a couple of wins and we'd be out of it. Anything more then a 5 is pushing it imo. then again I may just be reading the scale wrong, as in my eyes an 7-9 means we a almost certainly down, which we currently are not. Same feelings really, not sure I'd go as low as 3 but anything over 5 is pessimistic I'd say. If you played the rest of the season 100 times I think we'd stay up in about half.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Nobody's saying 'we'll be fine', the thread is about assigning a probability. Fortunately being in the relegation zone is OK unless the season's over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer is not very quickly at all. We've been in the relegation zone nearly all season and on January 23rd it's abundantly clear we've still not addressed two of our main problem areas, nor do we seem to have plans to. NUFC54's worse than McClaren for the utter fucking bullshit when we get beat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Unless we sign a striker guaranteed to score goals and sure up the defence we're as good as gone. I don't have much faith in McClaren. 8/10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Toon Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 He can voice his opinion but he is wrong. We might have improved our midfield options but Colback will still play there when fit so it's hardly a great improvement. Ronald's is correct, shit defence and no goals gets you relegated. We need two or three high class signings in the next 10 days or we are down. Even with them the half wit in charge will probably still get us down.

I get that, his opinion may be wrong in the end, but it doesn't make it any less valid, Ronaldo just insulted him and told him to be quiet, that was my main issue with his post, it's like your not allowed a differing opinion with him.
