The fact we are talking about the possibility / hope of finishing 17th says it all really.

[St1pe]

Still annoyed Brighton beat Liverpool yesterday

 

Edit* wow that really wasn’t new page worthy ?

[Decky]

Massive day today. I think we'll lose and Fulham will win.

[Robster]

Really can't see Fulham beating West Ham

[Decky]

Hopefully not but they're gonna get a good result soon while we're on this run.

[CalmintheChaos]

People panicking about relegation when we had ASM to come back 

[toon25]

Brighton on a heck of a run, like

[Decky]

Thank fuck I was wrong. If West Ham win today this is nearly over for another year.

[samptime29]

Massive win like. Especially considering the circumstances and the next 2 games.

[Disco]

That’s us and Steve Cunt safe for at least another year.

[Guest neesy111]

That’s us safe.

 

Steve Bruce safe for at least another year.

[Superior Acuña]

Aye, we'll be fine. Today's almost confirmed that for me.

[Decky]

Still need Fulham to lose or draw for me to be confident.

[Yorkie]

Couldn't be less worried tbh.

[Ketsbaia]

If West Ham do their job, that's a strong gap.

 

We just need to find another 10 points, the rest will sort itself out.

Cant see any of the bottom 3 getting to 30 points. I'm being pessimistic as fuck looking at Fulham today, it really is done now.

I reckon 32 or 33 points will be enough this season.

Yup.

 

Sheff Utd have seemingly left it too late, Fulham don’t have enough cutting edge and West Brom are shite.

[Decky]

If Fulham lose today 25 points could be enough. Its been a while since the league has had such a bad bottom 3.

[TRon]

Really needed that one with Wilson out for what might be a few games.

Fulham are about to play Burnley and Sheff Utd, so if that goes well we're good.

[GWN]

Still in the thick of it, ive seen enough lately when they are all fit we can play a bit .

 

4th bottom  destined , the new Sunlun

[CalmintheChaos]

Shut this down until 2022.

[BergenMagpie]

Shut this down until 2022.

 

Should be plenty of drama left this season. Fulham looking good vs West Ham

I've just been doing some comparisons between the 2020/21 season Premier League table, with previous seasons as at the same date, to see what the relegation battle looks like and where #NUFC is positioned (the TL;DR is that we're in a better position than previous years.

 

As at 7th Feb:

• 2020/21 Season, 18th Position = Fulham @ 15 points; NUFC is in 16th, but 10 points clear of 18th
  
• 2019/20 Season, 18th Position = West Ham @ 24 points; NUFC was in 12th, but only 7 points clear of 18th
  
• 2018/19 Season, 18th Position = Cardiff @ 22 points; NUFC was 15th, but only 2 points clear of 18th
  

So whilst our league position, this year, looks dire (as it was at the same time during the 18/19 season) we're actually in a far stronger position.  The bottom 3 this season (Fulham, West Brom', and Sheffield) are having atrocious seasons.  Whilst relegation is still definitely possible for NUFC and being in a relegation battle is still very much the case, the data doesn't lie, NUFC is in a far stronger position (relegation battle wise) than we were at the same time in the previous 2 seasons.
