Popular Post josh_baskin Posted 11 March 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 11 March 2023 I’m almost wishing for relegation to spite the owners for force feeding us this garbage on and off the pitch for such a long duration of time.

Matt Posted 11 March 2023 Share Posted 11 March 2023 (edited) Am I missing something? He says "it's in our hands where we finish". Is it? Southampton and West Ham both below us have a game in hand on us, if they win their games in hand Southampton go on joint points with us (GD being our kicker), West Ham go above us. We do still have to play West Ham. So, the view point is it's still just about in our hands but we're hanging on with our fingernails to confidently say that. I may have totally missed something though? (I'm not sure of the run in's, I guess teams might still have to play each other too, therefore one has to lose out on point or both if it a draw) *I've totally overlooked Bournemouth, either way I still feel he's clutching to confidently be saying that.

Paninistickers Posted 11 March 2023 Share Posted 11 March 2023 Surviving relegation is largely a mindset. Particularly when the team has enough talent to work with. A half decent managerial motivator, a change of keeper and the banning of Thomas and Soumare would mean just look up - not .down - to try and overhaul, say, Forest and Palace. Overhaul them two - entirely doable - and we stay up (as saints are 100% nailed on to go) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moseeds Posted 11 March 2023 Share Posted 11 March 2023 We have a massive handicap in the coming relegation scrap: half the team has no need to care about relegation because they're going anyway. Usually players don't want to trigger relegation salary clauses. There's an incentive to stay up beyond pride. But why would Tielemans, Soyuncu, Amartey etc care that much? Absolute worst situation to go into relegation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute worst situation to go into relegation I have long thought that this is a huge problem for us. A squad full of players who won’t be here next year, led by a man who must surely know he won’t be either. It’s the result of terrible recruitment and really poor planning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Raj Posted 11 March 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 11 March 2023 (edited) We don't have the mentality to avoid relegation once we are in the Top 3. Not just the player, the fans too. When pish comes to shove we will all be found wanting. There wont be flares prior to kick off like Everton did. We won't be applauding the players in 3 hours yo kick off. We wont make a cauldron of a noise. We are to blame as much as the players. Edited 11 March 2023 by Raj 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazly Posted 11 March 2023 Share Posted 11 March 2023 Top is to blame in no small part, he gifted Rodgers all the excuses he uses with the lack of any Summer activity. You cannot get away with one shit Summer, who can forget the Southampton amigos and one AWOL Summer in the EPL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A run of easier games coming up where new manager bounce might propel us towards safety. If he doesn't go this weekend I'm convinced relegation will happen. I'm going on the lash on Friday for St Patrick's day so I'm probably going to be too hungover to watch the game on Saturday. If they dont force that snake out of Leicester by then and its 6 defeats in a row its curtains for us sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
