Relegation 2022/23

Even if we're not in the bottom three (for now) think I still would've preferred a draw in that Palace game personally...

The best thing about today is that we have a golden chance to catapult ourselves into a space where we can see the finishing line whereas, others will still be way off getting sight of it.

If Monday night ends with us on 29 points and 13th, with S'ton, Forest and possibly Leicester looking like a very realistic bottom 3, then that'd be a fantastic outcome.

It could easily happen too.

That’s exactly where I am. We have a clear path out of this now and I’m confident we will grind out the results.

If we beat Spurs we beat a Mitriovic-less Fulham too.

Another win from soemwhere else and that's us pretty much over the line.

Monday's chance has to be taken. But even if we draw it'll still have us more than just alive in this fight.

Nah. Palace were never in trouble.

Putting a huge dent into Leicester was the better result by far.

Path out of this mess now visible and absolutely In our own hands. Huge credit to the new management team and shame on DOF/Board for leaving the previous regime intact after the Bournemouth week. This stress could clearly have been avoided had action been taken that week.

Goodison knows what is at stake on Monday and it will be a bear pit.

Dyche will be rubbing his hands this evening.

Yes, definitely. Palace already had enough head room. Was a great late goal for us and keeps us out the bottom 3 without doing anything. Must have an effect physiologically not being im the bottom 3. A win on monday of course would be awesome! COYB.

They are already safe.

They have 38 points lol

Just what I wanted, Villa getting nicely warmed up for their game against Leicester. McGinn is a player which epitomises why fan opinion of players is often very wrong - horrible ugly unfashionable slogger that we’d all hate to be linked with, but hugely effective and no doubt loved by his teammates and manager.

I dunno, you are right but I've thought Leicester are in real danger for a while and not changing Rodgers could be fatal.

Not me, I’m greedy…I wanted Palace and Leicester both to lose today……it really is just about us…it’s great if we get some unexpected losses by our rivals…..we’ve had a couple of good weekends where other results seemed to go our way, it just was one of those weekends this week

Villa looking for a European spot now. Realistic chance of it too. Leicester will find that game midweek a very difficult one.
