Can't even remember how we're doing

This. Feels like we're safe, but we're probably not?

I was trying to remember earlier if we were still in the FA Cup or not ?

[xLiaaamx]

We're 8 points clear and in the FA Cup Still

[AyeDubbleYoo]

What is this 'FA Cup'?

What is this 'FA Cup'?

 

A trophy that previous managers like Rafa sacked off because they didn’t like it. Thankfully Bruce has taken it more seriously and we’re now only one game away from Wembo.

If this takeover goes through, you just know we'll fuck it all up by somehow getting ourselves relegated.

Brewcie needs to be binned ASAP to guarantee safety imo.

 

Players will know he’s on the way out anyway so get a new man in and get the players playing for their future.

May I remind you that the season hasn't finished and currently, Steve Bruce is still our manager

[Guest chopey]

Ashley might pay Bruce to take us down

[toon25]

Anyone else worried?

 

Rest of teams at the bottom will have the bit between their teeth after the lockdown.

[Pilko]

Slightly worried but we basically need 3 or 4 points to stay up. Reckon we get that.

[HaydnNUFC]

5 points to 40, Bruce can surely fluke another 2 wins or a win and 2 draws.

Quite worried, I really think Bruce is going to use this takeover uncertainty as an excuse if we're not picking up points

 

I can also see us quite easily imploding if we get a bad start too

 

Having said that, this is also dependent on other teams below us gaining form which may not happen

While Mike Ashley still owns us, absolutely not.

Losing £300 million from the sale, no additional match day revenue for the rest of this season AND getting relegated would be quite amusing from an anti Ashley perspective.

Every year there's always a group of people who think the absolutely shit 6/7 teams below us going into the last 10 or so games are going to become supercharged and go on these mad runs. It literally never happens. We need 2/3 points.

 

These teams are worse than us, man. They're not picking up that many points.

Agree. Haven't given it any consideration tbh, but I can't help thinking we will probably be less well prepared than everyone else when the season restarts. I really have no confidence in Bruce's organisation or motivation skills.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

I’m concerned.

In normal circumstances I’d agree, but with the break there’s plenty of reason to believe that teams below us will have been able to readjust mindset, mentality, fitness and tactics to give it a good go.

Of course mathematically the probability is that we'll stay up, but there's a slight possibility that we'll go down.

 

And with this idiot still in charge the slight possibility becomes a distinct possibility, imho.

Lot of teams below us though and so far they have not demonstrated that; also on previous season records you may get one or two showing a rise in form, but usually most of the teams at the bottom stay there. As for mentality and mindset that's one thing you can't fault our current players for. Think people are kidding themselves if they think that there is a strong chance this team will go down and I would put those chances at pretty low. 1 team has to catch up 14 points, 1 team 10 points, three teams 8 points and 1 team 6 points for that to happen.

Our form from Boxing Day was: L L L D W D D L L D W

 

Loads of absolute stinkers, long stretches without even a goal, one miracle, and a couple of victories to keep our heads above water. I'll be very, very surprised if it concludes any differently to what's preceded it. We'll be fine.

How many more points do we need? 4 or 5?
