[Albion] Surely that's the safety point

[lancyclaret]

A lot of our reserve team is already at Burnley.

Sharp reply but they have ALL gone on to better themselves under Dyche (Barnes, Ward, Wood and Vokes). I remember this forum being quite upset when Ward chose the Clarets over the Seagulls...one of our top 3/4 players again this season. He'll be hard to replace.

Stoke have such a terrible GD that 2 wins and 2 draws won't be enough.

Our GD could be -30 by the end of the season. If Stoke win theirs will improve.

It’s not totally outlandish Saints could win 3/5 if they play beach teams so now we are not safe. We’ll half know on Thursday as if they don’t win that one 3/4 starts to look mountainous

So we will not be playing beach teams then. City have won league, can’t see Liverpool having much to play for last game of the season. I think we are good for at least 2 more points. I can see a point at Burnley and at Liverpool. As for Man U that could also be a point , we have played well against them this season

Seriously!!?? We’re going to concede 14 or 15 goals in 4 games, when our average is 1.4 goals conceded per game all season. I mean blimey, let’s at least get real when we worry...

Ward, Wood and Vokes were all loans to us so didn’t have a lot of say in where they went. Barnes, like Murray before him should have been offered a bumper contract, and in all honesty came at a time when we made some poor decisions on recruitment. His performances are actually a sharp reminder to many that they really don’t know what they’re talking about in the judgement of a footballer.

We're not safe yet. Can't see Stoke catching us with their terrible GD. They need to win three out of four. Not going to happen. But if we lose our remaining fixtures, Stains just need to win two and draw two of their last five. Certainly not beyond the realms of possibility.

And Swansea, Huddersfield, and Palace all need to pick up points from somewhere too.

Seen Hudds run in ?

We may have another big loss but I don't think it's likely we will lose 4 matches by 3 or 4 a game, do you?

 

[Is it PotG?]

Even where we're mathematically certain, there will still be some fretters until the last whistle has been blown. We may get deducted points over the summer for wearing the wrong socks.

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Swans have to play Stoke and Stains, so there's some lost points, well and some gained points!

 

[Pickledegg]

To win 3 from 4 or 3 from 5 is top 6 form. Saints and Stoke are bottom 3 for a reason! Why all of a sudden do people think these teams will suddenly improve considerably?! It could happen, but very doubtful!!

Inevitable now.

Still not safe, although slightly better than I thought after Saturday's mess.

 

[Mackenzie]

That point felt massive last night. I think we’re there.

I will be cheering Leicester on come Thursday.
Saints have won one game in the last 10. Stoke none.
The chances of either winning 3 out of their last 4............?

Indeed.

Southampton have won 5 league games all season.

They haven't won since beating West Brom at the beginning of Feb.

They have lost their last 4 league games.

They have done the double over West Brom, and beaten Palace (under de Boer), West Ham and Everton (both at home).

If they were playing West Brom 5 times then I would give them a chance, but they're not.

They are playing a team managed by a guy they ruthlessly sacked last season. His team talk is done already.

Their local rivals who hate them.

A team who don't tend to lose at home.

A team also fighting for survival, but looking much better equipped to do so.

And the league champions, who may be the first ones to get over 100 points.

We are 8 points clear, so they need to win 3 out of 5 just to get ahead of us. That assumes that we pick up nothing, and that everyone below us picks up wins too.

Keep the champagne on ice until it's mathematically certain, but I just can't see it happening. I think we've got enough.

They've got a much better chance of winning the FA Cup than staying up.

"Just".


Not that easy.

I agree, you'd think it would be beyond them .... But didn't Leicester do something similar to escape relegation? (And then carried it on the following season to win the title).

Didn't it just? We were celebrating like we'd won...
