Looking at our remaining games is rather sobbering.

 

I'm trying to go sobber for cry January.

 

"cry January" me thinks Dr Freud would have had a field day with this slip...

 

:lol:  Went right over your head that one

We have five winnable home games left and we look so weak away from home so I can't see us getting much in our travels . That leaves us with 36 points if we beat the makems  I don't think that's enough

I can't see us getting another point away from home and no way we win the home games needed.

 

I think us and Mackems are done for. We are self harming at the moment with silly mistakes and not taking chances.

 

Even if we do have a few players that can step it up at home on their day, we don't have the resilience to grind out dull draws or 1-0 wins needed

5 wins at home and point here and there. surely there is no way you are gonna need 40 points to survive this year? so many bad teams there at the bottom

That is grasping at straws - look how every team near the bottom is desperate to avoid relegation because of the financial rewards in the PL next year....they will ALL fight  hard to stay up and only Villa look likely to miss the 40 point mark at this stage and even they are mounting a recovery now.

you dont think we will get one single point from the away games remaining? not a single one?

No, I thought we looked decent at home and will pick up some points. But away from home is a different story.

 

We aren't even getting draws. We have lost to these 3 times in a row man and that cock end picked 3-5-2 again despite it being a shit formation and losing a few weeks ago playing same shitty formation

West Brom, Swansea and Palace home win. Lose to scum as usual and who knows with Bournemouth.

 

Man City will win 2-0. Only Norwich and Villa where I see us getting a result. We are pretty much always terrible away against the rest. So I predict 14 points

HOME: 13 Points

West Brom W

Man City L

Bournemouth W

Makems D

20 points, just staying up. And that's dependent on a massive change in form. In 23 games we've only won 5 times. We would have to find 6 wins in our last 15 and pick up a couple of draws to get there. When you put it like that it seems an impossible task.

 

In fact, if you take our win/draw/loss ratio of 5/6/12 and apply it to the last 15 games ignoring who they are against, we would end up with 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses. That will get us 13 points and end on 34. It's rare but possible to stay up on 34 points, but more likely you will go down finishing 19th.

Our record is very similar to 2012/13. After 23 games that year, we had the same number of wins, draws and losses. 41 goals conceded as well. Only difference is we had 3 more goals and we were not in the bottom three that season. We are now, and if we keep going like this, same players and manager, I'm convinced we're going down.

When I had a look at them, then having risen from the collapsed shock, I had us on an optimistic 14 points and a pessimistic 12...

 

Unless we get the signings of a proven goalscorer, who hits the ground running, a left back who can balance the team and have our better players perform consistently away from home as well as at home (Gini in particular) then I fear we are scuppered.

 

We may get zip away from home and one of the home 'bankers' is the derby. Very fucked imo.

Those away fixtures are horrific

 

The away fixtures don't seem so bad to me, on paper. On current position only one of the teams is in the top five ("1st tier"), two in the 2nd tier, two in the 3rd, and two in the 4th (4th tier being bottom 5). For me it has just been that we have been so woeful away from home, 7 points in 11 games, 6 goals scored, GD= -17; man that looks s***, doesn't really matter that we have played decent football at times; at this stage it is all about the points.

 

Edit: applied to the seven home fixtures, we play two in 1st tier (top five), none in 2nd tier, two in 3rd tier, and three in 4th tier (WBA, Makems, Swansea).

Think there's 9 winnable games there - even Chelsea (a) isnt what it was. Our away form feels shocking but we've actually won two.

9, Bloody hell I struggle to see 5.

 

The first four aways are certain losses imo.

hope you are right of course, 27 points would see us home and dry easily
