No.

I think we will be absolutely fine, but declaring us to be safe after 9 games would be insanity.

I'm not sure how being 6 points clear after 9 games constitutes safety.

No. I've just checked the history and no team has ever stayed up with eleven points.
Indeed, but I genuinely wonder how many teams have been relegated from the top division after 11 points from their first 9 games? Can't be many. I remember Millwall going down after a great start but that was so long ago it was pre-Prem I think...

Seem to remember Swansea(80s?) Chelsea and west ham all managed to go down after sniffing about the top of the table near christmas.

Carlisle won their first three games in the top flight, but were relegated by a country mile in the end.

We probably deserved to lose today and at Southampton. Got a silly penalty to get a draw at home to Fulham. Rode are luck a little bit against West Ham.


All in all, with these things considered, there is no way we are going down.

Yes, in fact I think promotion may be on the cards.

We don't have any of the shit normally associated with teams facing the drop. We have stability, we carry a goal threat, we have good squad depth, we don't concede that many, we're tough to beat at home and we've won away today.
