EastAnglianFox Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Seriously, some people actually wanting Swansea and Hull to win!??....Bizarre!!!
KingsX Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Watford must be packed up and gone. That's the only 3 points we will need.
Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Despite the scores today I think we'll be fine, currently not worried
Koke Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 2 minutes ago, Fox 4 Life said: We are right back in this ffs. Our run in is far worse than swans and hull Watford and Bournemouth at home are guaranteed 6 points for us. Plus a point at WBA. That will take us to 44 points. We will be fine.
RussianFox Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 7 minutes ago, EastAnglianFox said: Seriously, some people actually wanting Swansea and Hull to win!??....Bizarre!!! i genuinely believe we'll take at least 4 points from two home games against Watford and Bournemouth, and maybe 1-3 points from Arsenal and West Brom away. Maybe I'm too optimistic, but without CL games to distract us I can't see how we will not get at least 4-5 points from the last 6 games. This team was almost on par against Atletico Madrid, for Fuchs sake. You think they will not be able to win against Watford at home? Watford which is losing against 10 men Hull?
Guest Bilo Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Still think we'll be fine. Three or four points from our remaining five games and we're safe. With Watford and Bournemouth at home as well as WBA away, that's very achievable.
whetstonefox Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Swansea are away at a Man Utd and home to Everton next, they could quite easily lose both and they won't catch us. anyway I'm confident we can beat Watford and Bournemouth and possibly pick points up West Brom and Arsenal
davieG Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 If the Arse are in the fa final we could Nick a point off them
KingsX Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Top half finish feasible if we pick points up Wednesday. Should be the aim.

Spudulike Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Arsenal have us sandwiched between an FA Cup semi and Spuds. Perhaps a good time to play them.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Not best results for us but everyone in the same boat and we do have games in hand albeit vs Arsenal and Spurs Need to win home games vs Watford and Bournemouth

There's a reasonable chance 37pts won't be enough for survival this season. Hopefully at least today's results will get the players to focus that we still need at least one more win before we can mentally take our foot of the pedal.

Fox92 Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 I'm pessimistic as fvck but calm down, we're safe. Even with Swansea's win today we're still 6 points clear of them and their next two games are Manchester United and Everton.
Beachyboy Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 29 minutes ago, Stevosevic said: Stop looking down people. We should be looking to finish above watford and Stoke. Good scores for us. I think once it's mathematically safe people will all then be looking up, the good news is we have 6 points over Swansea, they have 12 to play for an by the of this month we will have played 2 more games added to our points total an they will lose at Old Trafford, meaning the whole month of May will be looking up.
Hammo Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Whatever positive, optimistic spin you want to put on it, the fact remains: We. Are. Not. Yet. Safe.
ZeGuy Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Swansea and Hull won. Happy for Hull but it kinda sucks. Hoping for a draw at the Emirates.
ian_marshall Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Those panicking need to calm down. Swansea average 1 win every 3.77 games and a draw every 8.5 games. Given that they need 2 wins and 1 draw from their 4 remaining games to finish above us I think it's highly unlikely that they can catch us. Assuming they beat Sunderland away and WBA at home they'll need 1 point from either Utd at Old Trafford or Everton at home, whilst also needing us to lose 6 games straight (something we've not done all season). If we pick up just 2 points from our remaining 6 games, that'll require Swansea to win 3 of their remaining 4 games. Furthermore assuming Swansea somehow pull off a miracle, the 3 teams between us and Swansea will also have to better our results between now and the season end. Whilst it's not impossible that we could be relegated I do think we're pretty much safe now.
BigWesMorgan Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Christ why are people doing Maths and averages? If we can't stay up from here we deserve to rot in the shallowly depths of league 2
Thracian Posted 22 April 2017 Posted 22 April 2017 Looks like we may yet need a win. Swansea look good for nine points and Hull at least six. Our goal difference means Swansea would likely have to get seven more points than us on the run in.
