Relegation

[Saint Domingo]

Honestly don’t know why people tipped Burnley for so many wins. It’s difficult for teams round us at the bottom to win away from home agaisnt anyone

 

[matty1878]

Looks like we’re safe

All over now, you cry arses and surrender monkeys can rest your tear ducts for another season.

there’s still games you know

 

[Gilbert..]

Great result.
But how the hell did burnley score 3 against us. Their games up to Everton. Now norwich today who have let in 63 this season.
Only game burnley netted is Everton. And bloody 3 of them.

 

[Lee Smith]

Of course it would. There's no way Norwich are getting close to 30 points imo so them winning dosen't make much any more of a threat imo and it deprives Burnley of any points in a game they'll be specifically targeting.

Would you rather Burnley be just 1 point off again or 4? With the games running out every single game matters now.

Huh? I don’t think you understood my post one little bit mate ?

Pathetic that we’re relying on Norwich v Burnley to hopefully stay in the league

What a mess we were put in

 

[Saint Domingo]

are you all going to pretend Norwich are really good now?

If we still had to play them people would be writing off any chance of us getting anything (fortunately we’ve already proven we’d lost to them)

PUKKI PARTYYY

 

[ToffeeTim]

They are now safe imo

 

[Ring master]

Think the commentator is, making out like they could still stay up

 

[MichaelEFC96]

We absolutely need to beat Leicester to make up for Wednesday

Hopefully not long til we can draw a line under this and start to focus on driving the cancer out of this club.

Not that it's in any way important, but I was wondering about the "Dyche's Burnley has a history of getting out of this" narrative, which I'd taken on board for a while, but is easy enough to check. Dyche has completed six seasons in the Premier League with them, and here they are:

Season	Position with 9 games remaining	Finish
2014-15	18th	19th
2016-17	15th	16th (never in relegation zone)
2017-18	7th	7th (never in relegation zone)
2018-19	17th	15th (last in relegation zone 30 December)
2019-20	11th	10th (never in relegation zone)
2020-21	15th	17th (last in relegation zone 5 December)

Unless I have massively misread something, they do not seem to have a history of making escapes, just one of basically holding on when in the position Everton is in now.

Amazing that they ever finished 7th

 

[Frenk]

Is it Pukey, or Pucki? Get the man signed up now.

 

[Eggs]

Brilliant from Puki

…I was saying to Mrs Eggs earlier, he’s got terrific feet. Control and first touch excellent, one of those good footballers who doesn’t have the physicality to match.

Chuffed Vydra didn’t start for Burnley, I like him.
