The "Are we Closer or Further from Relegation?" Thread

[Brauny Blue]

2 losses for each of them teams in the bottom 3 and we're safe.

I expect a bore 0-0 at Plymouth Monday.

But if Barnsley won 3 lost 2 they would end on 50pts leaving us another 3pts to find. Imo though its a good time to play Plymouth because their season is petering out.

Despite their recent results, I can't see Leeds getting to 50 points. They have a tough run in and are still playing very poorly. I think Southend and Luton are doomed/won't get 50 either.

Therefore, 3 draws and 3 defeats from the remaining games should be enough although it may go to the final games (Leeds are at Derby by the way - that could be an incredible match). If we can't manage 3 more points, we deserve to be relegated. Norwich and Wolves at home seem to me to be our only realistic win chances. At best, I can see a couple of draws from the other 4 fixtures.

Cheer on Wolves in their next few games. We need them to be secure in the top 6 by the final fixture. If they are, I can see them allowing us a win by fielding a weakened side focusing on other things.

i would never cheer on Wolves, i hate them Id rather we lost every game until the Wolves match, we need 3 points to stay up they need atleast a point to get play offs, we beat them and they dont get the chance to get promoted. Or id obviously want us to have won a game or four by the time we play Wolves and end their promotion hope, I HATE WOLVES ! ! !

Fixtures for Monday suit us:
Barnsley v Birmingham, 15:00
Colchester v Leeds, 15:00
Preston v Southend, 15:00
QPR v Luton, 15:00

I would suggest that they only "suit us" IF we can get some thing at Plymouth - there is too much ECS around here!!

 

[Yorkshire Vixen]

i think qpr will be the only team to win out of the bottom 4 or 5 teams

 

[Stevie Lynex on the wing]

Dirty Leeds are so spawny they will win at least 3 or 4 games and escape relegation. :icon_sad:

Agreed. As much as I want them to, i just can't see them going down

 

[alex]

We won't go down. Alas, I don't think Leeds will either..... However, I'm not sure Forest will come up - so, you know, every cloud...

I was actually thinking that even if we lose at Plymouth they won't gain that much ground!

Always think the worse Boc - remember I've been a City fan for 25 years so know the drill :icon_bigg

We won't go down. Alas, I don't think Leeds will either..

As long as we stay up, that's what's going to really hack me off about the end of this season :icon_roll

After today's results we are now further from relegation.

Before this match, the team in the last relegation place needed to get 7 points from 5 games to overtake us - which is 1.4 points a game.

Now then need to get 6 points from 4 games - 1.5 points a game.

Great stat Jeff. Won't make me rest easier however.

Now then need to get 6 points

Well Leeds have Ipswich and Burnley at home - that's their six
Southend have Barnsley and Luton at home - that's their six
Barnsley have Palace and LCFc at home - so they're above us

That leaves only Luton and Hull below us

We will lose to Preston and Barnsley away
Ditto Birmingham and Wolves at home


So it's points against Norwich or we are completely fecked. FACT


We are where we are, and we're in it together

i quite fancy burnley to beat leeds (ok so thats more in hope)...there will be more twists and turns yet but im sure LCFC will remain consistent..if we fail to pick up points against norwich and birmingham then i will really start to fear the worst and relegation would well be on the cards (yes i know its a real possibilty now)...i just want this goddamn season to end right now!!!!

Who typed that.........feckin nob. Kisnorbo admitted Plymouth were up for the game and Leicester weren't. How can that be when we should be scrapping for our lives whilst they are already on their summer holidays.
Barber on RL said to Kisnorbo ' thats a good time to play Norwich because they are mid-table with nothing to play for'.........er wasn't that supposed to be todays scenario

[SJN-Fox]

but im sure LCFC will remain consistent

That means picking up 2 points from the next 5 games ( like we picked up 2 from the last 5). The only thing consistent about LCFC at the moment, is that we are consistently shite.

 

[Yorkshire Vixen]

my point exactly :icon_wink

 

[Spanky Fox]

we have to get 3 points agaist norwhich to least get the 50points and move us further away from the relegation, i can't believe how fast the foxes luck changes or i mean how fast RK fecks his leicester team up, we had 3 wins on the bounce and we were cruising to safety and a top half finish, but then RK fecked the team up and now we haven't won in 7 games 7 FECKING GAME, crazy bastard kelly is. We have to get 3points at norwich and a point i'm pleased with at preston, bransley i can see us winning if we can get some confidence with the team before we play them.
