4 tough games remaining, and I've not seen a relegation poll for a while. Bookies, media and fans of other clubs think we'll stay up. I'm not so sure. Defensively we are still a shambles and I think Newcastle and Liverpool will take more advantage of this than Everton did. I still think we are relying too much on other teams dropping points so I think it's 60-40 in favour of us going down.

Yeh sorry I tried to make the title more positive than are we getting relegated. I then proceded to be negative with my comment so didn't really work 🤣. You think we'll stay up?

Far less confident than I was. Needed to get a win from Leeds or Everton. 

Fulham, Newcastle and Liverpool are tough. So depressing writing that. 


The same Liverpool that lost to Wolves and Bournemouth? Newcastle I would say is the hardest game of the season left, we can beat one of Liverpool or Fulham , if we get 4 points from those games we are staying up imo.

Voted no, but hoping I'm wrong. 

 

I haven't seen enough to change my mind in the last few games. 

 

Dean and his team have seen enough to know who the good players are but he still insists on playing out of form players in a formation that doesn't work for us. 

 

Unfortunately I feel that we won't win any more games from the rest of the season and expecting 2 or 3 other teams to do worse is not what I think will happen. We have made 2 poor sides look like they were competent and we were lucky to come away with a point from both.

I voted yes. We have winnable games. The Leeds and Everton games were so nervy i am not surprised we didn't get a win. 

 

Fulham away - They are mid table and injuries/suspensions have halted their season. We can win their

 

Liverpool Home - Not expecting anything but lets not forget Liverpool have been poor at the back this season. I can see us causing trouble for them. 

 

Newcastle Away - I am hoping they will have Top 4 sewn up, which surely they will have. We may play them when they are in celebratory mode

 

West Ham Home - Very much a winnable game.

 

I fancy us to get some points out the last 4 games. Here's hoping

Convinced we need 5 points to stay up.

 

Can't see us winning any of next 3, and don't trust us to have the bottle to handle the pressure of last day at home to West Ham.

There's one argument though what makes me slightly hopeful. We've gotta match two teams results over this next four to stay up. 

 

If Man City keep being ruthless, Everton and Leeds are effectively down to three games. Therefore I am slowly convinced a single win might be enough.

Yup. But as we failed to beat a Leeds team that had recently been well battered by others my confidence is low.

For me, no.

 

We needed more points from the Leeds and Everton fixtures. 
 

I can see us getting 3 or 4 more points but it won’t be enough. 


Personally I think 4 points will be enough I cannot see any of the teams below us matching that other than Forest. So by virtual of goal difference or one point we are staying up.

Nothing I’ve seen from us since Dean Smith came in has made me think we’ll stay up tbf 

Surely the three games unbeaten and not being in the bottom three must have at least made you think we're at least slightly more likely to stay up than looked to be the case?

 

And no, I'm not filled with unjustified optimism - we're crap and could easily get relegated. I'm just not filled with unnecessary pessimism - we're no more (and probably marginally less) likely to go down than any of the teams below us.

It’s made me think it’s more possible yeah but I don’t think it’s going to happen

Voted yes. Think 5 points definitely keeps us up with our goal difference but 4 possibly will. Think we'll beat West Ham last day as they'll rest players and those playing won't want to pick up an injury ahead of the Conference League final (assuming they make it of course). That means we'll need a minimum of 1 point from the other 3 games which I think is doable.
