ExiledGeordie Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 You need the spirit for a scrap, resolute in defence and be very difficult to beat at home and showing form. Us and Burnley look like we have those qualities. There’s a few above us who you couldn’t argue the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buzza Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 If ASM and Manqy are back on saturday we will have a strong team out. bring Bruno on at the sixty mark and we should be able to get the three points. Big dan will tame Toney. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Only 1% thinking we will go down smacks of arrogance to be quite honest. We're still very much in a battle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I wouldn't call it arrogance. Thinking we won't go down is not the same as thinking relegation isn't a threat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackyboy Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Norwich and Watford will go down along with any one of the 6 teams currently sitting above the relegation places. That of course includes us and we are a long way from safe. The Brentford game is massive and one we just cannot afford to lose Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Doesn´t just take some of the pressure off us, but instantly applies huge pressure to brentford, leeds and everton, which will make all of their next games just that little bit harder...

Guest HTT II Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 We are still very much in a relegation fight and for me, there is a real strong possibility still that we will go down and to think otherwise would be foolish, I hope the manager, coaches and the players don’t think we are safe because we aren’t (I’m sure they won’t be thinking that at all, until we are safe). We should, however, be looking up the table and not down and targeting as high a finish as possible. We are in a good position, despite injuries and some tough fixtures to come. Beat Brentford at the weekend and things will look even more better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 (edited) I cannot see how it's arrogant when we've looked the best team in the bottom half for months now. Even before our winning streak we werent playing bad (given our squad). Every other team around us bar Burnley are out of form.

Mahoneys Tache Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 We’ve got 2.2 points per game over the last six. If we only manage 1.5 per game over the next 14 we’ll finish on 43 points. I think we can do that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Beat Brentford and it really does throw the shitters out amongst all sitting in and around the bottom. It'll not be easy, and we can only keep a positive outlook going forward. The players have started doing their bit, the fans have responded and created two fantastic home atmospheres that I'd say we're critical in those two wins. Threat of relegation is real, we know the signs and that complacency is a killer, I'd like to think the current fans mindset is just that of optimism after grinding out some extremely positive and needed results. It's clichéd, but it is in our hands. Other clubs can do their thing, but we have form and a little belief. We have points on the board and games in hand on clubs above.

The Prophet Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Palace more or less safe now, its pretty much three from seven. Nervous times, but still a hell of a lot better than it was a few weeks back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Both Everton and Leeds are in massive trouble tbh. I can see this going down to the last weekend. Hopefully we'll be out of danger by then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NE27 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Nothing will be decided this weekend, but we can certainly keep the feel good factor going with a win (or even a draw really) against Brentford. There is also the affect this has on those teams sitting above us who may not realise they're in a relegation scrap yet. We are playing well and I believe Howe has the squad entirely focused with no room for complacency. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazzie Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I voted Norwich, Watford & Brentford. Norwich becuase it's what they do. Watford just aren't looking up to it. Brentford because I assume Fulham will get promoted and I only want to see one west London team in the Premiership. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
