Means they're moving above us or closer to us, Burnley 3 pts closer, hard to beat. 2 games next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are still 7 points clear and four others teams between us and them, those 4 teams are 3 to 5 points behind us as well and we have a far superior goal difference which is basically another point. We are shit at the moment but talk of relegation is silly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomav84 Posted February 23, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted February 23, 2022 brentford still my pick to go down. easily the worst team we've played this season. worse than norwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 One team that appears safe after 20-25 games usually gets dragged into it. That could be us. I don’t think it will be, but Newcastle and Burnley had good January windows it would seem and are on a bit of a run. I think we’ll be fine, but we need a win to settle the nerves. I’d be very worried if I was a Leeds or Brentford fan as I think they’re about to find themselves amongst it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is something we seem completely unable to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom_avfc Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 We couldn’t half do with some points out of the next 3 games. If we take 2 or fewer point from those then I think we’re right in it as it’s hard to see us getting much from the next 5 after that. Would I fancy us to go into relegation 6 pointers with Burnley and Norwich in the last few weeks of the season and get results? It’s hard to see it with how easy to play against we have been the last few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. We need to win football matches and we can’t seem to do that. It’s a problem. It really is silly, I don’t see the bottom three getting 34 points. So basically we need 7 points in the next 14 games. Even as bad as we are at the moment we’ll get more than that so it is silly otherwise you’ll be saying Leicester and Palace are in it as well. Even if you don’t consider them and think Burnley and Newcastle get out of it, you still have how poor Leeds, Brentford and Everton are. So to me, it is silly this thread at the moment.

Mantis Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I think a lot of the thinking is (understandably) influenced by how poor we've been for the past 2 and a half games. But also worth remembering that it's unlikely this form will carry on forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
string28 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 The thing is what people seem to forget sg was brought in to get us up the table not down the table just leave that here. No matter what else this is not good no matter what people try to spin on it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's simply that we've been so poor against two of the poorest teams in the league and that just makes its so difficult to see where the next win will come. We need a lucky, in off the arse, opposition hitting the posts/ crossbar type win in order to relieve a bit of tension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
