Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 On 04/04/2018 at 04:28, chopey said: I'm so pleased with our current form but I'm still a bit concerned what would happen if one of the bottom three went on a good run because with our remaining fixtures we will struggle to hit 40 points If one of the bottom three went on a good run, there are still 5 other teams that would need to overtake us to put us in the bottom 3. Genuinely think we’d survive even without another point all season. Also not sure why you seem to think our fixtures are so tough - pretty much all 7 of the teams we’re gonna play have absolutely nothing to play for. WBA are shit and managerless... Everton, Chelsea and Arsenal appear to have thrown the towel in for their managers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Worth pointing out we only picked up 1 point from games earlier in the season against our remaining opponents. However, that was basically in the midst of our terrible run without Lascelles. You'd also have to say we've got much better prospects of getting something in home games against Arsenal and Chelsea than we did away. Although vice-versa when it comes to Everton.

r0cafella Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I’d argue avoiding relegation is personally. Especially given how he was fucked over in both windows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Everton are all over the place at the moment, would fancy us to get a win against them. Fat Sam is just an unwanted manager waiting for the chop and his players are performing like it.

SteV Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 It does appear like that from the outside, but if you look at their home form it's pretty good. They only really lose to the top sides at Goodison. Just as well for them, as their away form is really poor. Which makes our loss against them earlier in the season, even more frustrating.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I think we should be looking to get a win at home to WBA, a draw at home to Arsenal and a draw away to Everton or Watford which would get us to 40 and would be enough IMO. I can actual;y see us losing to WBA and beating Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I'd assume it's a rarity for all the promoted clubs to stay up if it happens. All the lazy media pundits always predict relegation for the promoted clubs. There isn't much difference between the top Championship clubs and the bottom half Premiership clubs these days.
