i rashly assumed that even 35 or 36 would be enough so missed off them and PaLLace
So, by extension, we can lose to Cardiff but we'll be OK as long as we pick up 2-3 points elsewhere?
If Cardiff turn over Burnley, then Burnley could be the team most in danger.
Mind you, that's assuming we don't blow it - three winnable home matches left - but so too were Burnley and Southampton, and look how many points we got from those two. Still think we'll stay up, but a lot less confident than I was a couple of weeks ago - that performance against Southampton was hugely worrying and very disappointing.
Beat Chelsea and relax
Plus we managed to lose 4-2 away at Fulham - and we only just got out of jail in the home game against them as well. Basically for us there is no such thing as a 'winnable' game as just when you think we can't play any worse against a relegation-threatened team - we manage it .When we're looking for where the points will come from we might well do a typical Brighton thing and get them against the likes of Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal rather than Cardiff, Newcastle and Bournemouth.
Well I can dream.

Cardiff will fight like caged pitbulls against us...it will probably be the ugliest, nastiest, wingefest any of us have ever witnessed and we really don't like to play against teams that come at us. I think the Bournemouth and Newcastle games are more likely to be the home games where we can pick up points.
Those three home games are winnable. That doesn't necessarily mean we will win them.
Doesn’t make for such easy reading when you look at the bigger picture.
