Varadi Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Norwich are going end up saving us by default It's not them I'm worried about, it's the mackems - they're only a point behind us, playing much better than us and pretty much guaranteed 3 points in the derby.

Yep - Allardyce is doing what he's always done. Made them organised, ugly and they're going to get harder to beat. I still think we'll go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Win the 4 home games against the other teams in the bottom 7 and we probably do enough just about. That would take us to 36, you'd think somewhere in the other 8 games we'd pinch a win or scrape enough draws. No room for error though, must win those 4 games.

Stifler Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I think Norwich will go, Sunderland doing what they do every year worries me though. The good news is that both Swansea and Bournemouth can be dragged back into this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Swansea have Norwich, Bournemouth, Villa in consecutive games after Wednesday. If that doesn't pull them away, I think they're in trouble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Probably down to about a 5 after the last 4 days' events. Sunderland would have been looking for at least 3-4 points from those two games, Norwich look shot. Even if we lose tomorrow I think it's 50-50.

Not down to a 5 yet, but we still have a decent chance to get out of it. Getting a point tomorrow would be massive, but we must win on Saturday regardless.

Dave Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Bournemouth and above have now done enough to stay clear. Swansea could still be dragged down but they've got some reasonable fixtures coming up and a miles better goal difference. Two from three will go down IMO. Can't see how anyone is confident with those odds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Bournemouth aren't safe yet like. Eight points clear with a better goal difference? Howay man, they need like three wins max, possibly just two. They've won three and drawn two of their last seven matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 we need 2 wins in the span of 4 days, 33% of our current win total. We don't get 6 this week we're f***ed. If not - We'd have to somehow conjure up wins versus Norwich, Villa, and Swansea to get to 33 and then somehow draw 2-4 more out of my current assumption that we're losing to Leicester, Man City, Sunderland, Southampton, Liverpool, Palace, Spurs.

Ketsbaia Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Feeling slightly better but Bournemouth are in the clear. Never thought they'd really go tbh. For Swansea it all hinges on that 4-game streak. Nasty fixtures after that. Sunderland and Norwich though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Saturday is the 'must-win' one. While losing tomorrow would do no favours, fail to beat Bournemouth on Saturday and we're desperate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shush Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Our away form is so drastically bad it's really hard to fathom how we will suddenly switch on at Stoke. If we lose dashingly then that will be no surprise, but if we get humped it's going to look extremely bleak for him. What's Steve had? 18 days to work solely on turning us around without the distraction of a competitive game? - will be scandalous if we rock up and pick up our third game straight losing by 3 or more goals away from home.

George Bailey Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Massive two games coming up. Must win at home to Bournemouth and IF we can get a point tonight...happy days. I fear a loss away (obviously) and a draw at home Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
