SambaMaverick Posted 19 December, 2023 Share Posted 19 December, 2023 Chelsea really are embarrassing. If they can't win against a half-strength Newcastle who are shitting out of every 50:50, then there's no hope for them. Their front two right now, Broja and Jackson, wouldn't look out of place at Burnley or Sheffield United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we’ve got to close a 10 or 13 point Gap on teams averaging 2.36 and 2.26 points a game, plus over take Leeds plus we’ve got a worse goal difference so in reality it’s 11 points. With 23 games left we need to average about 0.5 of a point per game more than them.

Cabrone Posted 23 December, 2023 Share Posted 23 December, 2023 Hopefully Leicester can give them a pummeling on Boxing day to trigger an Ipswich wobble whilst we win both.

Personally I think we're nailed on for playoffs. But it's still possible even if we don't win today. I would be amazed if Ipswich maintain close to that ppg ratio, and if they do we ain't catching them regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
