Will be very close

[StanSP]

No but only by virtue of there being 3 teams worse off than us. Not because we're any good. 

[cityfanlee23]

I will say, I think there will be an element of emotion in this poll given we've just thrown another 2 points away, and I do think there are easily 3-4 teams that are just as bad as us, but I would say we fully deserve to go down this season, whether we will is up for debate. We have a squad fully capable of more. 

[Muzzy_no7]

No. We will be saved by 3 teams who are worse than us. Much like Leeds last season, barely deserving to survive but surviving at least. 

[Aus Fox]

No chance, we are so much better than those around us, we have players returning and new players coming in. We'll be fine this season, no doubt in my mind.

[Sampson]

Yep. Less than 1pt per game almost always sends you down in the end. Our points per game currently looks well set for us to go down.

Other teams pick up a few results towards the end of the season, we really don’t look like one of those teams who will pick up the points needed.

Too weak, too many injuries, won't change it up. If we stay up its because 3 other teams are even worse and at least they will try to do something about it.

Solely depends on who we bring in. We need a RW, CB and CM minimum 

 

 

[foxsake]

When the hope is that there are teams worse than yours to take the relegation spot it's not a good sign.. :/

 

Recall our squad from the Great Escape season: the guile, the fight, the heart they showed with a mountain to climb..now compare that to Brendan's soggy bottom boys, rolling down a slippery slope..

 

[Jakemoore]

No - Southampton, B’mouth and Everton are worse than us.

Factually incorrect but ok…

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

1 point in 15 and other sides apart from Everton showing a modicum of character suggests we are done if we keep a man who can't see nuts or zoo in the newsagents. Bin the little charlatan off

Everton will find a way to worm their way out of it so only Bournemouth and Southampton…

[MrsJohnMurphy]

If Madders stays fit.....no chance

[Guest Kopfkino]

Get players back and a another signing or two and we should be fine, there’ll be at least 3 worse than us.

 

There was one glimpse of the difference Maddison makes in the passage of play where it looked like he should have had a free kick. Much more able to play vertically between the lines to get us up the pitch. It’s even better when Dewsbury-Hall is on the pitch. Get Soumare back to add more press resistance in midfield and we should be comfortably clear as we showed just before the World Cup.

You are deluded mate.

[splinterdream]

I'm not voting till the window is shut, till then I have no idea

[Jattdogg]

The bottom 8 or 9 spots are up for grabs...all 9 clubs are shit so anyting is possible

[Guest kristianity77]

Going down for me, absolutely no question.  Reminds me of Leeds from way back when they were relegated and literally until the last week everyone was saying they were too good to go down and then it happened.

 

Our free fall is frightening.   There is no chance in hell that we aren't rooted in the bottom 3 in 4 games time.

Based on what?

[Mark]

Does anyone have a worse spine than us? Ward, Amartey, Mendy and a 36 year old Vardy

[BigGibbo]

Without significant changes i.e. Rodger's gone then we are only going one way.

 

Scuppered the rest of our season's luck today failing to win at home against Brighton and most of the teams below us are capable of going on a run which we don't seem capable of.

 

Truly dire rotting situation. Fingers crossed eh? 😒🤞

Based on watching the likes of Everton and Bournemouth play this season. 
Based on the way, we, with a full strength side brushed aside those teams around us in the run up to the World Cup.

I can only assume anyone who voted were going down hasn’t sat through 90 minutes regularly of the other teams around us.

[Daggers]

Depends on signings and sackings - but if everything stands as is then we are bankers for the drop
