Yorkie Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 As long as we get plenty of wins and draws against the other teams in the bottom 6/7, we'll be fine. Upcoming fixtures are horrible meaning the Cardiff game amongst them is absolutely huge. Lose that and it'll be very worrying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsprillasShinPad Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Up from a 3 to a 4. Expecting 0-1 points from the next 6 games. We may well be adrift by then. If we don't get a good AM in the transfer window, I'll be up to a 6. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 You think every team below us is going to get enough for us to be cut adrift in the next 6 games like. You can't be serious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordiedean Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 We have failed to beat and score against Fulham, Cardiff, Palace, Brighton, Southampton it is absolutely imperative we win our home games against these Huddersfield, Cardiff, Burnley and Palace if we don't then we will go down no doubt about it The league can change so quickly in 6 or 7 games and with us having a set of fixtures which looks like it may not bring many points we could be in deep shit by mid feb. If we have not got 24 points with a dozen games to go I think it could be real tough Teams will invest over the next month if we don't act I think it will be grim as fuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistle17 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 We've got Rafa, we'll be fine. It's when he leaves that we'll have used up all our lives and die a miserable death as a club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Not really bothered if go down or not if I'm being honest. We're firmly on the 40-point treadmill and we're going to struggle every year until something significant changes. We could easily go down this year but if we stay up it'll be the same situation next, it's a pointless, joyless, soulless boring existence a football fan could imagine. Wins mean nothing, losses don't hurt and I don't even check the table if we draw. I think we'll stay up by a couple of points this year as it happens but I'll not lose any sleep worrying about it, couldn't give a fuck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially now it’s stark as to Rafa is going to be treated but then if we were honest how else realistically was it going to be. If you can enjoy the day out and be elated by whatever points we end up with I envy you but I’ll not pay through the nose for the ‘pleasure’ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Same points at this stage as same stage as last season, but 4 points above relegation and not 1. I can see Fulham doing an us this season, getting out and finishing 12-10th. We won’t finish 10th this season and I can see us going to the wire to stay up which I think we will just. My worry is we are in a really weak position right now, Cardiff and Fulham are on the up and we are just maintaining a point gap. We need to go on a run of not losing, but with a win or two thrown in there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

relámpago blanco Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 18th place average 0.7 points per game so in theory even if we lose the next 5 we will still be out of the relegation zone. That's all hyperbole but it's not as grim as some are making out. We will probably pick up 2- 4 points anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Starting to think Cardiff actually aren't bad. Feels like they're always winning at home and they've just collected 4pts on the road, both with clean sheets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 i'm still at a 5, theoretically rafa's strong 2nd half of the season shit should kick in and we'll be ok but i think it's going to be much tighter than last year, much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Our defence is strong, Rondon will score the goals needed if he stays fit and Rafa has the experience needed. As Midds says above it’s all a bit pointless though really isn’t it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 You think every team below us is going to get enough for us to be cut adrift in the next 6 games like. You can't be serious. Extraordinarily quotable post there if it happens, Kiddy. It's pretty much not even possible for us to be cut adrift after the next 6 games, so no worries. 15. NUFC - 20 matches - 18 pts 17. Soton - 19 matches - 15 pts 18. Fulham - 20 matches - 14 pts 19. Burnley - 19 matches - 12 pts 20. HTFC - 20 matches - 10 pts So, in six games, NUFC gain 0 points, Southampton, Fulham, Burnley and Huddersfield all gain 18. We’d then be ten points behind Huddersfield with 12 games to play. Not even mathematically possible to be “cut adrift” in the next six matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
