Relegation 2022/23

[kenada_blue]

The gap between us in 19th and Leicester in 13th is 2 points. Still ridiculously tight in that bottom half when you think about it.

You need to win games though. That's the problem.

End of Jan you'll see a gap

Yep the season can still be rescued but only if action is taken immediately because there is no way will it be rescued if Frank is left in charge. His whole Everton career has been a relegation scrap with not a single sign that it can be any better. He is hoping the fans rescue them again like they did last season.

Bottom 3 after 18 games:
21/22: Norwich (R), Newcastle, Burnley (R)
20/21: Sheffield United (R), West Brom (R), Fulham (R)
19/20: Norwich (R), Watford (R), Aston Villa
18/19: Fulham (R), Huddersfield (R), Burnley
17/18: Swansea (R), West Brom (R), Newcastle

Over the last 5 seasons, 11 of the 15 sides that were in the bottom 3 after 18 games got relegated (73%).
Of the 4 teams that weren't in the relegation zone after 18 games and still got relegated, 3 of them were in 17th place.

It might be impossible to get relegated in January but it gives a pretty clear indication of where you're going to finish.

Amazing statistic, we need an improvement immediately, especially with Southampton and West Ham next.....

The issue is the longer Frank stays now the bigger the hole will be

At this rate Southampton will sack Jones, get a new manager in again & beat us with Lampard still in charge.

Makes absolutely no sense to keep him in now, give him till Southampton & then sack him after that.

Either back him & let him see the thing out, or do it now. All this only shows that, shock horror, they’ve not had a plan at all in regards to a shortlist.

 

[Gilbert..]

Need southampton to score for my bet to come in.
Checks stats. Southampton shots on target. 0
Worse than us ffs.

We need a manager to give us a chance......

I can see Leicester getting sucked down into the scrap. They’re only 2 points ahead of us and their form is very patchy.

 

[blueblood]

Southampton losing again, haven’t won a league game since mid-October, haven’t yet managed a shot on target against Forest. I wonder what will happen when we play them at home…

Know what you're saying mate but people keep saying there's 20 games to go and with our 3 wins from 18 games though I'm not too optimistic.

Highly doubt it, their squad is excellent and will kick into gear sooner or later.

That's the issue with the board waiting again it's inevitable just do it

Mate Brighton were not even remotely going to be anywhere near relegation.
They're pushing for a possible europe place. And always were.
Decent team.

Agree mate, as are Brentford, but just saying their two results this week have guaranteed their pl status.

Genuinely don’t think we can afford to give him the Southampton game.
