I can do the maths the same as everyone but for me, we may need at least 41 points to stay in the premier league . If we need 41 points to be ahead of Leeds and Everton it might well be Southampton who go down (having lost their last 3 matches.....which us a distinct possibility.....no, probability...

Goddy

Ha ha - just done that calculator thingyo. I reckon we'll beat Villa (h) and Newcastle (who won't even have a position or two to play for when they turn up at the Turf). Us on 40 points and ahead of Southampton (who will, likely lose their final 3 games). Everton and Leeds on 38 with DL down on GD. ...

Goddy

We’ve got the points on board and better GD than Leeds. Rather be in our shoes than Leeds right now with a trip to Arsenal then home game with Chelsea. Then Everton have got a great result there and look strong at home now. Hopefully they’ve just peaked and can’t match that level of performance. Ce...

Goddy

with Arsenal winning at West Ham that puts them only 3 points behind Chelsea as it stands - that should hopefully focus Chelsea for next week. 3rd place very much up for grabs after today if Arsenal manage to hold on to their lead ....and Arsenal still have Chelsea to play. I suspect Chelsea would ...

Goddy

Yep we still need to do the business. But (like Everton) our home form is pretty good. Win those and we are on 40 - surely that will be enough with the better GD For Leeds to better that (40 points) they'll (probably) need to beat Brighton AND Brentford and get a point against either Arsenal or Che...

Goddy

Look at it this way........ Leeds next game away at Arsenal. Unlikely they'll win that; reasonably unlikely they'll even get a draw; most likely lose Burnley next game home to Villa. Reasonably likely to win; possibly draw; possibly lose If Leeds do lose and we win (a distinct possibility, I reckon)...

Goddy

DL every time.

Goddy

Interesting that on every projection (whether across last 6 games, last 10 games or across the whole season), Everton get relegated. Jeez - I hope it pans out that way.....

Goddy

I'm surprisingly positive about this game....I know....it's Burnley, so being so positive is always dangerous! I think; - momentum is with us - Wolves don't have that much to play for...OK they could make Europe but it's more an outside chance imho - Wolves missing big players - Burnley playing with...

No need to apologise for that, pureclaret. As others have said, words from the heart are always beautiful. As I write, I'll admit, I shed a tear for you and your dad. My condolences to you. Sounds like you have lots of fond memories to look back on which, in time, will make you smile, too, when you ...

Goddy

Hi Oscar - I don't know the answer but would be interested to know. Whilst I'm not looking to book hospitality until next season (and I appreciate things could well be very different for obvious reasons), I'd still like an idea of how much it all is and what you might get for your the price.

Goddy

....and NP did make a couple of outstanding saves e.g. that one from Adams.

Funnily enough, I did mention to a few chums in the pub after the game down here in Nottingham how outstanding both goalies were, quite frankly (in answer to the OP). In fact a very enjoyable game all round

I just hope we have something to play for on the last day. If we do I suspect Newcastle won't be massively bothering...could you see them putting a shift in if they've little/nothing to play for?

I'd take that and a spanking for Everton on Sunday from their fellow Scousers wouldn't go amiss if goal difference is going to be......er........the difference

Goddy

So, after 3 rounds of matches since I posted my (relatively poor, it turns out) predictions, here's how everyone's doing against what I thought might happen (for what that's worth, of course); Burnley +2 (points) Everton +3 Leeds +3 Watford -6 Norwich +2 My updated relegation table would read (assum...

The Dali Lama is an Aldershot fan. I talked to him about football in a pub in Clapham Common.

I really hope that's true!

Goddy

Who’s “we”? If you are talking about fans it’s irrelevant really, because we can’t affect results, so me thinking the worst won’t relegate us. Only poor results will do that. We’ve had far too many, and we’ll have more. Beating Everton was unusual in that they were in the bottom 8 and we took all t...

Goddy

Everton have Watford to play......at Watford, too.

I know Everton are cr@p away from home but might just be the game to change things for them. I do think they'll slip up against Liverpool, Leicester (twice), Arsenal, Chelsea and possibly Palace........Everton are a looooooooooong way from being safe

Goddy

But it is true Really? So if we win every game you think we'll go down? Didn't think so. OK - not realistic, I give you, but things really are in our own hands Even winning 5 out of the last night (beating say Norwich, Watford, Soton, Newcastle and one (or more) from Wolves, Newcastle, Villa) is ex...

Prefer Leeds to win. Need Watford out of it by the time we play them

Something in what you say here, Salisbury. We only need one other team apart from Norwich and Watford to be worse than us and we're safe. Everton can be that team (in spite of their result today)

Goddy

Let's look at it this way.....Watford are toast after today. They'll have to beat Brentford, Everton (hopefully) and us to have any chance...and even then it's a long shot. We have to remain focused and keep taking points. We have games in hand. We have winnable games. We can drag Everton, Leeds (ye...

Goddy

Bobinho - sorry but your final sentence simply is NOT true. (Thought I'd include the shouty text for appropriate emphasis)

Goddy

Good post and if we win tomorrow then the status quo will be maintained, and we'll still be only a point behind Everton, plenty of points to play for yet. Exactly, tiger. Win tomorrow and we'll be back to a point behind Everton and either 5 points clear of Watford or closer to Leeds. Essentially, w...

Goddy

Couldn't agree more. We pretty much have to win tomorrow whatever Everton did today. What's likely to happen us one or two at the bottom will implode (Noreich, maybe Watford) and one or two will get dragged in (Leeds - hopefully) maybe Brentford still). If we just string a couple of wins together th...

Ahh a Burnley midfielder talking 2 opposition players out of the game with 1 touch, before running towards goal and smashing in a screamer from 25 yards. You wounder how long it'll be before we see something like that again. I'm hopeful Maxwel will be the next to provide that touch of geniius. In f...

Goddy

...and the interesting game for me is the Watford/Leeds (Dirty Leeds) game. I'm really torn as to what I'd prefer as an outcome. If Watford win, it'll give them some momentum but will leave DL in a precarious position given their run-in If Leeds win it will stuff Watford up, although they'll still h...

and Watford under Hodgson are no mugs, any of the 3 can stay up

Er......and DL could well still be dragged into it in spite of their recent results. I could actually see DL going down(please let that happen) and two of us, Everton and Watford staying up.

Goddy

OK - before the one game at a time' brigade come on and give me an ear-bashing, this is just for fun. I reckon (for what that's worth) the final outcome for the current bottom 5 (probably with claret-tinted glasses) might be; Burnley 36 Everton 34 Leeds 33 Watford 33 Norwich 24 ...and the fixtures f...

Might be a few additional sales as a result of people selling their shares and then getting the credit to buy tickets/merch? Either way, it's a decent total considering the likelihood of Championship football next season (although you do get another 4 matches to watch, I suppose, should we end up be...

I'm so sad to hear this. RIP young fella. My best mate had a similar diagnosis 6 months ago and then 2 weeks ago told (when he hoped for 2-3 years) 'you've got months'.

Agreed about Sophie Raworth

The first 4 questions were 'would you have said what Boris said about Ukraine being like Brexit'.

However insensitive, obnoxious and moronic Johnson might be, what a waste of time pressing Rishi Sunak on that......

Goddy

Interesting, I didn’t realise it worked like that. So if a manager gets paid out, let’s say, for the next year, he can’t get another job in that year? Or is the ‘agreement’ that he can find another job in that time ‘if’ they agree on a shorter payout Let's say an employee has 3 years left on a cont...

Yes that £10m fee is one reason why Sean is secure in his job for now. Of course in hindsight that new contract doesn't like so clever by Alan Pace now, but I must confess I was happy at the time. And in hindsight we'd all do certain things differently. As I say above, tiger, we won't pay anywhere ...

Goddy

But it would cost us about 10 million to pot him now. I don't see him getting a better offer and I can't see him walking away from a contract like that. I think this summer would have been a good time for a change for both sides tbh. Everyone bangs on about how much it would cost to get rid of SD (...

Slightly bizarrely, I'd like it to end 0-0 esp now Everton down to 10 men. It's likely to keep FL in a job for a bit longer which has got to be good for us?

Isn’t Turf Moor the whole footprint, not just the stadium, including the car park?

Does anyone know if it includes the fanzone? Can't be bothered waiting days for an answer from the club. Hmmmm - good question. Fanzone not specifically mentioned although the letter says "all food and drink kiosks INSIDE Turf Moor". Is the Fanzone inside? Debatable I guess. Sorry I can't be more h...

Your TeamCard doesn't buy it but perhaps the gold card does, although I wasn't aware of it working like that.
