We are still only in November , I have Seen teams get to April time looking completely doomed and somehow putting a run together and staying up, with the money we spend in January I think we will stay up.

None of those teams have never not won a single game out of the first 12.

It's looking really grim, like. Have to start winning games, simple as that. Think we're going to have get something from Arsenal and/or one of those games in mid to late December to just keep ourselves in touching distance when kinder fixtures come up.

The thing that gives me a bit of hope is that 3 teams have survived with 10 points at Christmas so it's doable. 

 

If we can get to 12-15 points by Christmas then we are still very much in it. 

 

We have to beat both Norwich and Burnley, then hopefully a bonus win elsewhere

Nobody has ever stayed up from this position after 12 games and tbh I cant see this team being the first.

 

Yesterday was an improvement no doubt, the effort, passion, everything was much better and we looked dangerous going forward, but with that defence and Howes history of bad defences I cant see us having the time to get the points we need on the board.

 

The attack is good but its not good enough to outscore enough of the teams we have left to play.

 

My bet would be on us playing championship football next season, I just hope we can bounce straight back if that does happen.

Think it's that no team has failed to win in their opening 12 and then stayed up. Plenty will have been in the same position and still stayed up and although I'm guessing on this one, presumably teams have had similar points totals gained and still stayed up?

Crystal Palace had 4 points on this day in 2013 and survived finishing 11th ffs.

 

It’s utter horseshit that the first 12 games mean we’re certain for relegation.


Same season the mackems had 7 points after 12 games and survived too.
