The Now-Irrelevant 2024/25 Relegation Battle (Without Everton!)

[Exeter_Gently]

We could leapfrog West Ham as well next week.

Yeah, a blip for winning. To me, Leicester beat a poor Spurs side but Leicester remain very poor as a club. This was a game the Foxes should have won. So the win is more of an anomaly. The rest of the season won’t see a lot of points going Leicester’s way. So to me it was a one-off, a blip, but not a rising trend whatsoever.

I get what you're saying mate, but they've almost got enough points already. They are fine.

It's 2 from 3.

who’s yours mate?

game by game mate.

let’s not get ahead of ourselves

 

[knowing your history]

Would love this West Ham team to turn up at Goodison.

I suspect though they'll have Bowen, Summerville and a new CF available by then.

Think Villa are going to win this 3 or 4 nil.

 

[Clarky cat]

Another bonus is that the “Dyche to Leicester” weirdos can shut up for a bit.

Dyche to Spurs!
Surely his mates in the media who kept telling Evertonians he’s a brilliant manager will be advocating Seany getting the Spurs job?!

we will have more players by then

and be safe ( hopefully )
plus moyes won’t want to lose to them

who’s yours mate?

Soton, Ipswich and Leicester.

I think Wolves will scrape out. Reality is Spurs, ManU, West Ham are not really in danger. We will be fine.

 

[MercuryBlue88]

Spurs fans are toxic, the amount that are spouting about wanting relegation to get Levy and co out the club is astonishing.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

We are certainly back in the mix should we lose to Leicester. No amount of saying ‘we are definitely safe’ makes that true. We still need to dig some good performances out, and that’s not a given with this bunch of players.

We need bear pit Goodison next week

I hope the match going fans appreciate that and we don’t go in thinking we’re already safe and showing some of the overzealous complacency some on this thread are showing

Goodison needs to be angry, vicious and uncompromising next week

Yell the team over the line

It’s the biggest game of the season

 

[Drico]

Could have gone 12 clear over them with a win next week and would have had them essentially in the back mirror

Now even if we win it’s only going to be 9, and if we somehow spung it (which we’re very capable of doing) they’re just 3 behind

Next week is season defining

Yes, it's a game with lots riding on it and one that comes with expectation. The great thing about David Moyes, though, is that he's always been very good at getting results when opportunity knocks and expectations are high.

Oh.

You've had your good nights sleep for the season this weekend. Back to normal next week.
