Luckily he was miles offside! 

I thought that at the time, but it appears not. We lucked out there, for once.

He wasn’t. Castagne played him on

I’m not so sure, he looks offside to me from this

I still think we are down, more so because we don't seem to be getting the rub or luck. Newcastle and Pool still to play as well, will probably need a win on the last day as I see it going to the wire. 

Leeds have Man C and Newcastle.

Everton have Newcastle and Man C

Forest have Arsenal and Chelsea

 

Everyone has tough fixtures.

[Number 6]

Can't shake the feeling that whatever happens it will be in the balance for the final game against West Ham.

Only Mystic Meg could have called who is going down and she is dead so now one can!!!

Yes, now the euphoria of Vardy's equaliser has worn off, the pendulum of belief and confidence we will stay up is teetering.

 

I'm back to obsessing over the other teams fixtures and I do think it's going to be one of those seasons where last game of the season all 3 places could still be up for grabs as Forest and Southampton aren't out of it at all. Forest have some winnable games which bothers me.

Forest have not game in 10.

Everton 2 wins in 10

Leeds 3 in 10.

 

Everton this Monday is massive win and I think we have put ourselves in a good position.

 

Southampton are 5 point behind us and have won 6 in 32 games, I don't see them winning 2 or 3 in 6.

She did.

Can’t see us getting anything v West Ham last game if anything depends on it - based on our proven ability to bottle end of season big games - but wouldn’t be surprised if we beat Liverpool.

When Villa were nearly relegated in 17/18, Deano got a point away to West Ham on the last day to keep us in the PL. He can do it

It basically hinges on Monday. 

[tickler28]

I saw enough last night to keep me believing however I still need more...for me there wasn't enough good attacking football and at times the players looked nervous on the ball (hesitant)...there was some fight but not enough for me....needs to go up a notch

[Area88]

We are back in the relegation zone!!!!!!!!!!!  Hit the panic button.

[Lionator]

The biggest crime was the Bournemouth game. If we’d won that, we’d be above them. 

[Kitchandro]

I repeat. Last night was a shocking result. Other teams will grind a result or 2 out on pure spirit, we don’t have it. We don’t beat teams we should beat, let alone those who are better than us. 
 

 

[Paninistickers]

Straw clutching, but the forest result cranks up the pressure on Everton tomorrow. 

 

And having seen Leeds last night, they won't be happy. I think Leeds are gone.  Saints almost certain. 

 

[FoxOfMelton]

This is looking like more of an inevitability than a possibility now.

[HybridFox]

Just imagine if we had lost yesterday though. Fine margins, still all to play for. The Everton game is a huge six pointer we simply have to win

We just need to do our job. No one else will do it for us. 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses should keep us up. And it's not unrealistic for us. Monday is huge and a win there could kick us on 

[The whole world smiles]

Come on lads, theres 26 games involving us or our relegation rivals between now and the end of the season, it can't be Doom and gloom every time one of them doesn't go our way! Plenty of twists and turns left. 

 

I think we will stay up, we have the superior goal difference some winnable games left and a couple of genuine match winners in the side unlike most our rivals! 

 

Up the city.

I reminds me of Atletico Madrid away, people thinking a 1-0 loss was a good result. 

[Guest Col city fan]

When I look at our position I’m seething.

I know that ‘hate’ is a very strong word but I can’t help feeling hate for Rodgers.

Not playing to our strengths, consistently overlooking Soyuncu and playing Ward for so long is just criminal really. He’s really fooked us over in the end.

[melvinmmelvin]

 

Statement of intent from Forest, there. Can't really complain...

 

Was going to ask if Brighton are already 'on the beach' - if Brighton had a beach...

Exactly. It’s still in our own hands. Monday is the big one and if we can win that then I think we’ll be ok. I’m not overly fussed that Forest have won tonight, it doesn’t change our objective.
