Jimzk5 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Definitely wont be 40, probably not even 38 points, could be as low as 36 points to stay up, either way, 1 more win and were over the line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 They really need to beat West Brom. If they do 35 points will probably be enough and if not they can scramble a draw from one of the other games. Norwich tend to be pretty good at the must win home games they have.

useless Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I don't think anybody is relegated just yet, you never know. Imagine if Fulham manage beat us on the weekend then they could be right back in it depending on other results and they have some fixtures they might fancy themselves get something from. Cardiff too could still have a chance I still wouldn't be surprised if one of them managed a little escape like Wigan a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers13 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Espnfcs soccer power index, which isn't perfect but is pretty decent at projections, had each of the bottom three above a 70% chance of going down. Seems pretty likely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakid007 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 If Fulham play against us like they did against Everton I fully expect to roll over and get fingered. There 17 year olds will score & Sidwell to score a screamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leviramsey Posted April 2, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted April 2, 2014 Espnfcs soccer power index, which isn't perfect but is pretty decent at projections, had each of the bottom three above a 70% chance of going down. Seems pretty likelyI concur with the learned folks from Bristol.Fulham: 93.4%Cardiff: 86.4%Sunderland: 74.9%Norwich: 21.5%West Brom: 13.9%Palace: 8.7%Hull: 0.7%Swansea: 0.3%Villa: 0.2%The 0.2% probability with 7 games to play indicates 1-2 points from safety, I reckon. If you figure that over each of our remaining games we'll be 60% to lose, that's a 2.8% chance that we finish on the same points as we're on now.

HanoiVillan Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 We'll get five or six points out of the remaining games. Given who we are, we're probably more likely to do it against Man City and Tottenham than Fulham or Hull, but we'll manage it somehow. Don't know how anyone could want Albion to go down - one of the few teams we nearly always take points off! Especially given how gutted they must be we came back from two goals down each time. Think they're in real trouble after the events of the weekend though. Also, got to assume that Norwich go down if they don't win this weekend.

Yeah but those 5 points we took off them could prove to be what sends them down - I rather like the thought of us being a key part of their relegation.

heid3ster Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 According to this Daily Mail article, Sunderland fielded an ineligible player (Ji Don Wong) in four matches earlier this season (due to a "clerical error"). Although it appears he only played in one league game where they earned any points (just 1 point, vs. Southampton), he also played a part in knocking MK Dons out of the Capital One Cup. I expect they would at least have to forfeit that one point vs. Southampton, and probably will be hit with a fine as well. Not really coming at a good time for them.
