VillaJ100 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Don't think Bournemouth are 100% safe. They should be, probably 90% but that great run of form they had seems to have burnt out a bit. Not sure on how rough their fixtures have been though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consideting the ridiculous hype they are easily the worst promoted team ever Was there genuine hype? They were a decent championship team - but they didn’t manage to keep Tella (went to Leverkusen) and Maatsen (Dortmund). Harwood-Bellis also started for them all year, but they didn’t manage to get him back on loan either. Their first XI clearly went backwards year on year, so was always going to be a struggle for them. It would be like us not managing to keep Mings, El Ghazi, etc the year we went up. Sheff Utd had a similar problem, losing Ndiaye to Marseille. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 26 Moderator Share Posted February 26 Am I right in thinking that both Everton and Forest are now awaiting the results from FFP charges? It'd be very Everton to get the 10 points punishment reduced to 6 points, then pick up another 6 point punishment. If Forest are punished, that'll be them down I'd have thought, and with their murky ownership and huge spend, they could be in massive trouble, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idiots like Neville were preparing this as Kompany Man City audition They were as hyped as Bielsa Leeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Everton somehow get special dispensation for the fact this is the only year where you can be punished twice in the same season, they should be looking at another commensurate deduction Forest's beach would have to have been less than the 47.5m they sold Johnson for. And reading through a summary of Swiss Rambles view of things it sounds like they will be in the ball park of (or even lower than) Everton's £20m. A 6 point deduction for them shouldn't put them in trouble.... Edit: scratch that, 6 points puts them right in it, with a tricky run of fxitures. If Luton carry on their revival (except against us) it could be a good battle for that last spot Edited February 26 by MrBlack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 26 Moderator Share Posted February 26 I think Forest have other troubles coming too - there are rumours about unpaid agents, unpaid suppliers and the role of their owner. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange/Not Strange how Citeh's far worse allegations have almost become an afterthought these days, precisely because of who they are and the enormity of their allegations have made the problem an abstraction -- a kind of cerebral concept rather than an actual shit set of connivances.

PaulC Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Everton will survive even with Anotyer points deduction. The only way Luton will stay up is if Forest hsve a substantial points deduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted 1 hour ago Author Share Posted 1 hour ago With three games left to play one of Luton or Burnley somehow sitll have a chance of staying up, looking at the fixtures I think Luton could actually do it, they've been in bad form of late, but makes me think they might be due a good result or two, they've got some winnable games. Luton: Everton (h), West Ham (a), Fulham (h) Forest: Sheffield United (a), Chelsea (h), Burnley (a) Burnley: Newcastle (h), Spurs (a), Forest (h) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
