I've always been of the opinion you set your own pace and bank on a position accordingly, so a good position would be 41+, maybe 14th/15th, acceptable 39-40 points 16-17th anything less is running the risk of 18th or lower and financially not a bankable position.
we know in reality it varies...
It's simple really, we either improve ( we need 1.2 for 40pts or 1.28 PPG for 41) or we'll likely as not go down
we've failed this season in respect of last season, with an improved squad. . . .looking up the table, making an improvement on last season looks easier than its ever been, Palace...
Talk about lowering standards and expectations!
It could well go to the last day and us praying for someone else to win/lose.
Man City and Arsenal last up.
The Fulham game is huge psychologically. Fulham have some wind in their sails but a few tough games coming up. Wee need something...
