Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

How many points are we likely to need from the remaining 5 games, ie, Watford, Burnley, Naarwich, Villa and Newcastle, and can we achieve it, in your view?

Bruce will love sticking the knife in.

It will be almost impossible for us to beat Chelsea, they will pick us apart at will.

How big will the Newcastle game be?

Nobody gave us a prayer at Chelsea earlier in the season either

Son...Kane and one other to score ...
We are a shambles...

Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

Reckon we need 10 points for safety...
If we don't get 10 out of 24...deserve to get relegated...

Spurs 8/13 tonight with skybet, that's printing money surely??

The squad lacks steel and battle

I'm not confident

Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

We dont stick a shot on target at home v Wolves but expect us to go for a win away at Spurs?

I wish i had your optimism but wheres the service for Antonio going to come from tonight? Will Antonio have lost the 2 stone he needs to since saturday?....i doubt it....

It appears written in the stars doesn’t it?


But we SHOULD be going there with a positive attitude.
Moyes appeared to put this in a category of games that don’t suit us however

"Spurs are no wins in 7 and Kane is being asked to play 4 days after his first match for 6 months."

Enter West Ham, charity club fc. That'll be a 5-0 defeat and a Kane hat-trick then.

We need to be going there to win

We wont lose to all 3. Tonight seems out best chance for an upset again. Football is fairy tales. We will lose to some of the shit we are supposed to beat later down the line and relegation will happen but it will be tempered slightly by the 3 - 1 victory we had over Spurs at their place tonight. We will go down but remain unbeaten in seven sisters :-)

You're probably right.

Maybe I should rephrase to 'getting by with the least possible outlay'!

Lee Trundle 6:23 Mon Jun 22
Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

I'm not sure that is there tactic here.

They're just rubbish at running a football club on and off the pitch.

El Scorchio 6:21 Mon Jun 22
Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

This is why their 'tactic' of just enough to keep us up is all the more baffling. They are playing with fire RE: the value of their investment.

We would also take a huge loss on TV money if we go down. It'll be nice to have still 30k plus in the ground, but that's not going to make a huge difference in the grand scheme of things. A hole in the finances where the SKY and BT money would be IS going to make a big difference.

Lee Trundle 6:16 Mon Jun 22
Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

You're right. They won't be selling up if we're in the Championship. I've given up trying to explain that to those who want to see us relegated.

PeterJ 6:11 Mon Jun 22
Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

Why would they sell up when their investment is worth so much less? That’s a strange theory.

Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

It would be a much happier season for us in The Championship as long as we come back up in 2 seasons

The Mercernary 5:09 Mon Jun 22
Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

LT - we've only played 10 league games in the last six months (pre Wolves game) and there were obviously 9 left to play when we re-started. So it's not a massive stretch to say we'll get more points.

Also, 4 of those 10 were against the top 3 and none of the remainder are.

Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

First thing is to try and register a shot on target in the first half

Lee Trundle 4:15 Mon Jun 22
Re: Assuming we lose to Spurs, Chelsea and Man Utd..

We're hoping that we score more points in the next 5 weeks than we've got in the previous 6 months that Moyes has been in charge?

No chance. Our only hope is that 3 teams are somehow shitter than us.
