Premier League: Relegation Race

I can't remember the last time or any time that all the away teams have won.
 
Well, there's less than half the season to go, and Albion and Sheff U need to more than double their current points tally simply to catch us if we lost every game between now and the end of the season; and Fulham need to double their total to catch us on our current total. On Fulham's average points per game so far, they'll end up with 25.3 points at the end of the season. We have 26 as it stands.

It's mathematically possible, of course, but it's more likely that the bottom three will continue roughly to follow their existing points gathering.
The lowest points total the team finishing 3rd from bottom have got this century is 30, so one of them will probably get to at least that. Not that it's relevant to Wolves
 
I haven't thought and don't think they'll catch us, was pointing out there's three teams between us and them whatever they do
The teams between us are now irrelevant. The only way any of the bottom three catch us is if we totally implode and get no more than perhaps 6 points and if that is the case I have absolutely no doubt that Burnley, Brighton and Newcastle will ahead of us. The chances of one team completely imploding is very low, the chances of two practically nil.
 
OK so I'm arguing we won't go down and you're arguing we won't go down. Glad we cleared that up 😅
 
Do you believe that this group of player we have are so poor that they could lose most of their games from now to the end of the season and drop into a relegation fight with teams that are currently 12 points behind and looking like derby 07/08 themselves?
No neither did I imply that I thought we might just highlighting what a monumental cock up it would be to get dragged into anything from where we’re now.

I think sheff Utd will perform considerably better in the second half of the season compared to the first half.

we still won’t be in trouble though.

None of them look anywhere near as bad as that Derby team. They were in a category all of their own, 11 points all season and 89 goals conceded. It's a mad achievement to be so shit really.

My old employer had a box for that season - nobody ever wanted it :)

I dont think any of the 3 sides down there get to 30 points. Albion have played Fulham and Sheff Utd in the last couple of weeks and taken 1 point from those two games. Cant see where they are getting 18 points from

Sam is targetting 38 points.

If he can get that out of them from the next 16 games then he deserves the job at Liverpool or finally get that role at Real Madrid he wants

It's just based on history, but I guess this could be the lowest in the last 20 odds years. Sheff Utd have won 3 of their last 4 in the league and look like the team from last season. They've left themselves too much to do, but I think they'll be the team who finishes 18th
 
If we're moving to a back four (and I think we are, we're making enough noises about it anyway) then he doesn't really fit anywhere. He'll make a career and seems a good guy. It just isn't here.

You can't help how you're naturally built of course but I don't think I've ever seen a professional athlete look like he does. He's the slimmest man in the world who always looks too heavy.
Angus Fraser. This came to me in the middle of the night
 
He had that same really heavy footed way of running, like every step made the ground shake

I wish him good luck with that. The form he needs to hit that is Top 6 form.

I'm still narked we lost to them. All I hear from Albion fans is how it's their worst squad in years, the players don't care, don't fight during performances and so on.

How on earth did we manage it?
