SNSUN Posted 24 June, 2020 Share Posted 24 June, 2020 For us, Newcastle drawing is ok but a top 10 finish for us still isn’t out of our grasp. On a personal level I’d love to see West Ham go down so poor results there too, Villa point aside. Norwich are gone. Bournemouth will join them. Then it’s one of Villa, West Ham and Watford. I think, sadly, it will be Villa. Agree with the comment above though, Sheffield United will probably suffer from second season syndrome next season, especially without Henderson. I also think Burnley are due a dodgy season at some point. Depends if they keep hold of Tarkowski. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 24 June, 2020 Share Posted 24 June, 2020 You have to wonder what will happen to Bournemouth after relegation? They have spent a fortune on players that has only been sustainable due to PL income. They've got guys like Solanke, Ibe - around £40m spent on those two, they can't even get in the side....how will they able to shift them?? Then you've got lower league football next year with reduced capacity and no PL income....they could be ruined. The buckets will be rattling again soon...

stknowle Posted 24 June, 2020 Share Posted 24 June, 2020 If West Ham manage to get relegated this season they deserve some sort of inverse George Cross. Norwich, Villa and Bournemouth are all frighteningly shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are Bournemouth still in trouble with the EFL? Or did they settle it? Im curious what happens if Villa go. I think they dodged punishment by getting promotion & then spent £140m+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa are another example that spending millions and millions and millions doesn't get you far. They spent as much as Fulham did last year!

Shite about how desperate Man City would be to win tonight on Five Live earlier etc etc. Really? Like the scenario that Liverpool would subsequently go on to suffer seven consecutive defeats is anything remotely plausible. At least they've won it now so we can get on with the rest of our lives.

skintsaint Posted 26 June, 2020 Share Posted 26 June, 2020 Only taken them around 1.5bn of buying players to get there, but can now move on - I'm avoiding FB for the time being while their 'fans' get it out the system!

SaintTex Posted 26 June, 2020 Share Posted 26 June, 2020 7 hours ago, Colinjb said: Time to zone out. Dodge the nausea. Despise them. yep... but they clinched in the least dramatic way (and as a by-product the least nauseating) 01) they didn't do it with a win on the pitch, but as they sat on their couches at home. So we didn't have to see the team celebrating on the pitch the day they clinched 02) they have to wait a whole week for their next game (on a Thursday), so maybe some of the "excitment/fawning" will be diluted some by then. 03) No celebrations in front of supporters at Anfield. 04) No parade Trust me... it would have been way more nauseating if they had clinched it versus Man City next Thursday. and yes, they will always carry their victimhood front and center, but at least we don't have to hear "the 30 years without title drought" talk ad naseum anymore. haha, i would kill for a "30 year title drought" !!

For villa to finish above us they will have to get at least ten points from their next 6 games including against United, Liverpool and arsenal. If they lose to west ham then it would be at least three wins and a draw from five games with us losing every game for the rest of the season. Norwich would need 5 wins and a draw from their remaining 7 games and if West ham end up losing to villa they will need 3 wins and a draw from 6 games, two of which are against united and Chelsea. That leaves Bournemouth who would need to get ten points from 7 games which include city, Leicester, United and spurs and Watford who would need 9 points from 7 games which is achievable but they also play Chelsea, City and arsenal along with rivals Norwich and West ham so they will take points off each other.

We are safe mate. We've been safe since before lockdown when needed about four points from nine games. The idea that anyone needs to whittle and worry about Villa or West Ham winning the odd game is absolutely bizarre. Especially when the relegation scenario involves huge upturns in form for multiple teams while simultaneously believing that Saints will simply lose eight games in a row. Put it this way - if it was Saints in 19th with 27 points with 7 games left would they have the same belief that we would escape in the way they fear that Villa will do? Of course they wouldn't.

Yes and the point is that even if villa did happen to do it, you won't have Watford, West ham and Bournemouth doing it too which is what you'd need for saints to get relegated. In a couple of weeks it will get to the point where more than one of them will need something like 8 points from 4 games to overtake us which isn't going to happen.
