Infinitely Content Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) Did any of you watch Spurs today? Absolutely awful. They would have to win 3 out of 4 with us not picking up a single point out of 5 for us to go down. It's shit that it's even something we're even talking about, granted - but it's not happening.

DebuchyAndTheBeast Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 We are sh*te at the moment but to go down Spurs would need to win 3 out of their last 4 i.e beating 3 out of Villa, Leeds, Chelsea and Everton while we pick up less than 2 points from our last 5. The latter is possible but I don't see Spurs winning 3 out of their last 4 matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree it's unlikely, but teams do pull off some mad shit at this point in the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely not, but you can't just disregard it when it comes down to so few games. More crazy shit than that has happened before. Only a few games ago people said there were no chance that spurs would go down. Edited April 25 by Displayname Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erikse Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) It's still Spurs vs West Ham. Reagrdless, a lot has been said about Howe being let down, but compare our squad with the teams around us.. Couldn't feel less sorry for Howe to have to work with a bunch of established internationals. Remember when Matt Ritchie was a key player for us?

toon25 Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 I'd be surprised if West Ham won many more points. Brentford (a), Arse (h), us (a) and Leeds (h). 4 points tops there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Only 6 points behinds us though now West Ham and still have us to play. Maybe we need them to get close to us to spark some of our players in to one last performance in that home game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayubeproud Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) Latest odds from Betfair exchange after we lost to Arsenal. Taking average of the back (buy) odds and lay (sell) odds, our chance of relegation is about 1-in-70 now, which is unlikely but not completely rare. For instance, the chance of a British newborn baby in 2013 dying before the age of 35 is also about 1-in-70. The frequency of us winning any silverware in a given year in the last 7 decades is also about 1-in-70. Edited April 25 by mayubeproud Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What have babies being born in 2013 but then not living past the age of 35 got to do with NUFC ? Are you criticising our academy ?

TheEntertainer Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 (edited) There's definitely a chance now, I think Spurs are too bad for us to realistically be worried, but I'd not be suprised by us finishing 16th or 17th. 4 games to go and from the last 4, Spurs have 4 pts, West Ham have 7, Forest have 10, Leeds have 8 and we have 0. We're 8 points ahead of Spurs, 6 of West Ham, 3 of Forest and 2 of Leeds. Edited April 25 by TheEntertainer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEntertainer Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 Just now, SteV said: 10 points for Forest is pretty wild… Chelsea (a) Newcastle (h) Man Utd (a) Bournemouth (h) Those are their points from their last 4 games, not what I expect them to get going forwards, they only need 3 more than us between now and the end of the season to catch us. Spurs getting 8 more than us is the unlikely event. Given Forests form and the form of the teams they are playing 7 points would be reasonable from those fixtures if I was to guess now, but who knows. I'd not be suprised if we got 0, but on paper none of our games are awful so I'd expect us to pick up something. Like I say I don't think we're going down but I do expect Forest and Leeds to both finish above us and it's not an impossibility if Spurs somehow pull out a very unlikely run. We have 2 relegation 6 pointers coming up, playing Forest and West Ham, hopefully we can get up for those. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcmk Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 I mean.. we are closer to 7th than 18th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEntertainer Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 We are and technically that’s possible as well but even less likely than us finishing 18th. Football is all about momentum, we have none, all the teams below us have loads (other than Spurs). I’d not even be thinking of being worried about an 8 point gap if we looked vaguely like we could win a game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
