Interpolic Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 They need 9points from their 4 games left. Less points if Spurs slip up. They only need 8. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 I'm firmly of the belief that 35 points keeps us up. Dunno why I keep doing the score predictor thing, it's just going to make it that little bit worse if/when we do go down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karjala Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 They need 9points from their 4 games left. Less points if Spurs slip up. They only need 8. Can see them beating Swansea and Everton, maybes a draw at best at Manure. So, need Spuds to lose before they play us: West Brom (H), Chelsea (A), Southampton (H) - Looks like we need to pray Chelsea beat them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 As expected, Everton and Watford have given up. We're fucked. Pretty much. For us to stay up I think we'll need to win our last three games as I'm assuming we won't get anything more than a point at best at Anfield. If it was Norwich or Sunderland in that position I'd be feeling pretty confident of our chances. They were lucky to get their games against us right at the beginning of Rafa's stint before his methods had time to make an impact. They were also lucky that Ashley and Charnley were prepared to stick their head in the sand for so long and hope it would turn out okay rather than act and put things right.

Leazes_End_Mag Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 The mackems failed to beat or score a goal against an absolutely wretched West Brom team. Think we are talking them up tbh. Not sure the last time I seen Sunderland look poor or disinterested to the levels that we've reached at times this season. They've looked fairly solid lately and with Defoe up front, I'd expect them to get at least 5 points v Everton, Stoke and Watford. They could certainly pick up points at home v Arsenal and Chelsea too. For us to have to win possibly 3 out of the last 4 is a massive ask. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Those saying 'we couldn't even beat Villa at home', well 'Spurs couldn't even draw with us at home'. Our draw with Villa doesn't suggest we can't beat them away and Spurs's defeat to us doesn't mean they can't beat us away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Aye, if Spurs couldn't beat us at home under McClaren, they've got no chance up here under Rafa. Football doesn't work like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Avoid defeat tomorrow and we really have a good chance, we can win the two after tomorrow and then it's a case of what Spurs have to play for and how much we want the last 3 points of the season.

nufcjb Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 If we get anything from Anfield, I'm optimistic that we'll be this season's Leicester. Though looking at the mackems' opponents, most of them really have nothing to play for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shintonsghost Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I think we all know we have been gone since January, don't know why all this guessing is going on, FMA waited and gambled again, and lost, he gambled with the club and lost he fuking deserves everything coming, the big shot business man eh?

Wallsendmag Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 The mackems failed to beat or score a goal against an absolutely wretched West Brom team. Think we are talking them up tbh. They've been here and done this many times before. In fact it's in their own hands this time which hasn't been the case for the past few seasons. It's us and Norwich joining Villa and we've just got to hope Rafa fancies dirtying his hands in the Championship for a season as I've got no doubt he'll bring us straight back up.

afar Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Looking at the fixtures again and the fact the mackems have teams like Stoke, Everton and Watford, who have clearly given up on the league this season, we have to win all 4 games to stay up I think and that relies on palace losing all theirs, don't see Sunderland getting less than 9 more points and with their gd advantage we won't catch them.
