Relegation 23/24 Thread

[knowing your history]

What a bizarre season this is turning out to be when you're about 50% more confident in winning away games than at Goodison!

When on earth did this club last win three straight away games in London?! The 60s.

Pick up at Goodison and it really will be a comfortable season in the 45-50 point range which would be a big success given the state of play after the final whistle against Luton at home.

Great win for us and good that Burnley and Luton lost

Need Bournemouth to lose now as well

Think Bournemouth will get something today with all Newcastle injuries and general fatigue.

But dosen't really matter if they pick up a point if you take care of business yourselves so it's a very good weekend regardless.

What we needed have had 3 tough games and got 7 points from 9, now for a much needed break for the lads. Still feel we need to aff to this team we need more off the bench

The suits are going to have to up this point deduction if we carry on like this!

Close this abomination of a thread

Daily mail are going to hate this. Expect another point’s deduction article tomorrow

Watching live in bed in NZ. Excellent 3 points and that away support, as usual,….it’s all you could hear. The way this team are playing, they’ll survive a points deduction.

At this point its going to need to be more than 12, because at least 2 of the 3 dont look like they will even crack 20.

About half way to safety now.

Fantastic win and another 3 points closer to safety. If this form continues we will be able to close this threat not long after Christmas. We are showing balance, resilience and the marks of what could be described as a decent team, which is all I was asking for until we get to the new stadium.

Would make us favourites to stay up even with 12 points now. Would need to gain 5 points on the bottom 3 over 26 games when we've gained 8 points on them over 12.

Fantastic result

How bad are the bottom 4 after 12 weeks?

Having 4 teams below 8 points has not been seen in premier league history. The one time there were teams ALMOST this bad, all 3 of the teams at the bottom got relegated. Only 1 team with less than 6 points has EVER survived the drop. Ill let you guess who that was...

Basically that means Burnley and Shef U are 99% to be relegated, and its just a race for the last spot.
