omariqy Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 These are the games left for everyone and at the bottom is the points I expect each team to get. We need a minimum of 8 points I think.

Zatman Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I expect Bournemouth to win tonight, after that it doesn look very good for them After West Ham we probably have the 2nd most favourable run in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PussEKatt Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Looking at that I would say its us,Norwich and Bournmouth for the drop.This time I think we will be down for quite a few seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think some may have been too premature to count Brighton safe yet looking at their fixtures, though admittedly their existing 6 point (7 really with GD) lead over us already feels insurmountable.

We aren't getting the 3 wins we'd need to overhaul what Brighton will end up with. There's no way they lose every game between now and end of the season. They are very much out of it for me.

Probably not, they could still be relegated above us in that case though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That I won't discount, but only because I don't really know how good West ham are going to perform in their run in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle and west ham I can see being draws, would leave them with 5 instead of 9. But such are the small margins at this point who really knows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I can see Norwich springing a surprise on Watford, which leaves them absolutely needing 2 wins from Newcastle and West Ham. Don't see them getting 9 points at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Pretty sure the 9 points was for West Ham and not Watford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 It's one of those, at this present time, I can't see any of the teams winning a game let alone 2 or 3. However, one of the teams is bound to put a couple of wins together at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 6 game mini season where we start level on points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will judge them when they play against the lesser teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think that? I think we're in a far stronger position. There have been several posts and why in a number of different threads so I won't repost all of that.

Keyblade Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I just wish we were the same team from the first half of the season where we had no issues scoring and were like the 6th highest scorers in the league. We can't buy a goal right now. I fancy that team from earlier in the season to stay up in these circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WakefieldVillan Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 The predictors can definitely pass a bit of time but ultimately I don't think they mean a right lot. I had another look earlier and had the following bottom half final table; Brighton 39 West Ham 38 Watford 38 Bournemouth 36 Villa 35 Norwich 25 Notable findings from that was; Newcastle lost all 4 matches against the teams above us. That probably won't happen. I had Watford v West Ham as a draw and West Ham v Villa as a draw. Any changes with these results could have a massive effect. I had Norwich drawing with Brighton but losing to West Ham and Watford - Again, if they managed to somehow get wins in those games it improves our chances. I had us winning 2 drawing 2 and losing 2 - That would mean a four game unbeaten run at the end. Worryingly we could be 7 points off safety by the time we play Palace on the 12th July (albeit with a game in hand) Psychologically that could kill us. I stand by the 36-38 point margin to give us a fighting chance and I think we need Norwich and Newcastle (in particular) to pick up points against our rivals.

I think I agree with the first part but I think we will absolutely smash the Championship. Completely different feel to last time we went down. But let’s hope we are both wrong on the first part and never need to find out... only needs 2-3 wins I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
