How do we think it will end - 12 to go

kenyon6923 · Post by **kenyon6923** » Sun Feb 25, 2024 5:23 pm

Obviously 13 points now, "can't see the obvious win/s" in the list

Bournemouth Home - POSS DRAW

West Ham Away - POSS DRAW

Brentford Home - POSS DRAW

Chelsea Away - LOSS

Wolves Home - LOSS

Everton Away - LOSS

Brighton Home - LOSS

Sheff Utd Away - DRAW - POSS WIN

Man Utd Away - LOSS

Newcastle Home - LOSS

Tottenham Away - LOSS

Notts Forest Home - WIN - Nothing for either team to play for.

For me final total 20 points - possibly 22 points

Don’t think we’ll win again and can see a few batterings incoming as so many of the team have given up and we will now start to see that some begin protecting themselves from injury to get moves.

Maybe 3 draws - 16 points.

I honestly can't see where another point is coming from, even if we pick up a few points, I think we will finish rock bottom.

Just looked up and I ve seen 9 relegations and this is turning out to be the worst. At least those we were in a battle up to the final two or three.Unless the two teams still threatened by points deduction Everton and Forest get 10 points each knocked off it’s going to be all over by the end of March, with 8 games left.
What a shite season , must be the worst I’ve witnessed and there’s more

BleedingClaret · Post by **BleedingClaret** » Sun Feb 25, 2024 5:42 pm

18 points

CoolClaret · Post by **CoolClaret** » Sun Feb 25, 2024 5:44 pm

Depends - if Amdouni and Traff keep their places then I think bottom on 16/17 points tops.

Play a midfield three , reintroduce Benson (even off the bench for 40 minutes), reintroduce Muric, play at speed instead of "drawing a press" that your keeper or defenders can''t pass around.

Never know, maybe finish with 24 points - least give the fans something to get behind.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Feb 25, 2024 5:59 pm

It won't be enough, of course, but I'd snatch your hand off for 24 points.

At least that'd show we'd put a bit of effort into those games.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Sun Feb 25, 2024 6:02 pm

we won't get more than 4 points and finish bottom

If VK is in charge: 1 Win 2 Draws 9 Defeats
This puts us on 18 points and short of the 20 points I predicted at the very beginning of the season.

19th in the country, we have had a really really poor season but we are nowhere near 'pathetic'.

No different, may grab the odd point but VK won't change the team.
Sad that it's come to this

Boss Hogg · Post by **Boss Hogg** » Sun Feb 25, 2024 6:38 pm

By PL standards and compared against all our previous PL teams it’s been pretty pathetic all season.

I think we have 1 Win and a draw to add to our points tally so that’s 17 points … was that the plan ? Could we have got 17 points without spending 140 million ?

A few wins early next season and the whingers will soon be changing their tune.
Personally, I'd rather they stay away as they claim they will.

With Tella, Maatsen, CHB all going and the same number of minor and season ending injuries, no we wouldn't.

The europhia of beating say stevenage at home will be tantalising it's a scalp I'm really looking forward to.

Coup de grace delivered by Sheffield United at Bramhall Lane.

Unless he changes something, whether that be the team or tactics rather than just pick the same and expect different results, then I have no idea. If the latter it will be 13 points that’s for certain.

BabylonClaret · Post by **BabylonClaret** » Mon Feb 26, 2024 11:35 am

What've we got left? At home we have Wolves, Forest, Brighton, Bournemouth, Newcastle and Brentford - ordinarily we'd be looking to think at least 10- 12 points from those fixtures because they are mostly all 'winnable' (although Brighton and Wolves are the edge of that envelope - maybe outside , Newcastle are an odd side and seem to boince from hipeless to oustanding) but seeing as we took a dismal 2 points from our last three 'solid' winnable games it bodes ill.

Away we have Utd, Everton, Chelsea, Spurs, Sheffield, West ham. There's very little hope there other than Bramall Lane (but our record there is appalling bar the Coyle promotion) and maybe West Ham if they don't turn up.

I'd be surprised if we break 20 points which is even lower than I thought previously.

We are only 19th in the country based on the fact we can’t play anyone in the league below.

Based on what I have seen so far this season, I reckon half (possibly more) of the championship sides would wallop us right now.

We are in big trouble. Not on about the inevitable and unavoidable relegation, that’s been a done deal for me since November, I mean in general.

Me too, but we are hoping against hope. We are leaderless…. Brownhill is supposed to be the captain…. He’s a mouse on the pitch.

Take the Ramsey injury break against Arsenal. All the Arsenal players stood around the referee having a chat, building relationships etc - what are our lot doing? Stood around in one’s and two’s, hands on hips staring at the floor. Why is our captain not taking control? Because he’s weak, and he allows the others to be weak, and that’s why we are going down with a whimper.

What on earth gives you the tiniest indication that we are
going to finish outside the relegation positions?

I hope you're right but i suppose hope is now all we have.

At best (with everything going our way), we could scrape 34 points.

A relegation number.

Pitiful

quite possibly, I still wouldn't class us as pathetic though

The Sat game is for all intents and purposes our last chance saloon . I’m being insanely optimistic, but if we could somehow put back to back wins together and get a bit of backs to the wall fight about the place then who knows ? especially with Forest awaiting points deducted .

Do I realistically think we’ll start a great escape “ campaign “? alas I fear the only “ start” will be the early preparations of the Fat Lady herself .
