Which game was it where you thought 'ok, if we win this one, I think we'll actually pull this off!' ?

 

I remember quite clearly that I felt that way before Swansea, and once we'd won it, I really wish I'd gone and put money on it there and then.

West Ham. Because I still believed we could do it before the game. 

 

Although that was based on other teams not picking as many points as they have, because I thought 34 points would be enough for survival.

None I thought looking at the fixtures from spurs onwards we could do it if still in touch.

That was at xmas.

 

All I will say is I never thought we would need so many points at the time.

 

Gobsmacked we have doe it needing so many points but did think we had it in us.

West Brom, winning a vital  game in that fashion and then going on the fluff it up, nope couldn't see that happening and plus I could see the influence Huth was having and that was enough to convince me right there.

I've said it before, but I have mates who can vouch for it. I never thought we would go down.

 

But after that 4-3 loss against Spurs, I was absolutely convinced that if we continued to play like that, we were going to stay up with points to spare.

Tottenham was a strange game. Unusual match to watch but also odd in that I walked out of White Hart Lane feeling relatively optimistic, felt as if the battle had been reignited after a serious dampening the previous week.

Southampton for me. I felt a bit deflated after watching Sunderland beat Everton and feared we would bottle it under pressure. Needless to say we didnt and I knew then we had made it

Vardy's goal at WBA marked a surge in form but the element of fortune that carried us over the line for the win at Burnley and picking up a colossal 3 points at Turf Moor was when we truly turned the fight on it's head!

I believe all of this apart from the "I have mates" bit. :whistle::P

I was saying on Twitter, pre-season, that we'd struggle for quite a while but because of the run-in, we'd stay up easily in the end. That's how it's turned out but in a more dramatic, nerve wracking fashion than I imagined.

I think the Spurs game was the turning point for the squad and when I really started to believe we were going to do it. It would also have been very easy to have lost all hope at that point. To play so well and lose to 2 pieces of absolutely rotten luck and a poor decision from the ref, it was the story of the season really but there was definitely a change in the air, it was a palpable feeling emanating from the team and some of the fans.

I think Swansea. We looked like a team in control of our destiny.

 

Weirdly the least optimistic I felt was after the Newcastle game when the other teams all won. It felt almost like a defeat.

The same here came away from that game elated, thinking we had put the pressure on all the teams around us who then went and won. Three hours later I was deflated.

The Matt Taylor miss was pivotal for me. If he scores we'd struggle to leave with a point. The miss revitalised us immediately and the rest is history as they say.
