I think it's the current 3. West Ham are in huge bother - 2 very winnable home games just gone and 1 point to show for it. Forest will flirt with it and are in trouble, but they've shown enough in certain games. Just not against the mighty Toffees, naturally.

Bournemouth won't go down but feels like they could be on the cusp of really struggling next season.

Likewise Leeds have shown plenty about them in certain games, much more than West Ham imo.

Can’t disagree with any of that in truth. West Ham are the most capable of the bottom three, to stay up, but ideally for them they need two wins and no worse than 4 points from their next two games. I wouldn’t quite write them off if they don’t do that, seeing as there’s still half the season left, but hard to see a path to safety if they can’t beat the teams near them.

Bournemouth will be fine this season and could pick up soon enough, but shock horror a team that lost their defence in the summer are conceding goals and remind me of Southampton in the 2010s where eventually, selling their best players year on year will catch up on them. Iraola won’t be around forever either.

Forest really shouldn’t be where they are at present and Leeds have enough about them to stick around, but I can’t say I’d be shocked if they go on a bad run and go down either.

Think Bournemouth and Brighton might be looking over their shoulders especially Bournemouth with the run they are on

Think West Ham are in real trouble at the minute but Burnley and Wolves are gone

They both realistically need about 13 -15 points from 19 games to get them to the 38 point mark. Both should be fine but Bournemouth are dropping like a stone.

West Ham need 24 from 19. Leeds need 18 from 20 games.

It’s getting extremely tight for West Ham. They need to go on a run of about 3 or 4 wins just to get them back in touch and give them a chance.

Wolves and the scabs their next 2 games, they have the opportunity to do something very VERY funny.

West Ham are a club ready to blow up. Crap signings, despised owners, horrible ground. Will be a funny watch.

However I hope they stay up at the expense of Forest. Rather a proper team like West Ham around than scabby Forest.

The old Olympic Stadium in the Championship with Wet Spam. Hilarious...

Hope it’s forest. Can’t stand the blerts.

Poverty chants whilst having a thatcher loving manager isn’t an endearing look.

West Ham look primed for the drop. Smell of decay about them. Or maybe that's just the jellied eels.

West Ham v Wrexham next season

Wasn’t this us some 3-4 years back ?

Let’s see if they survive

Reading these comments about West Ham just make me think of our predicament from the last few seasons. Even though I'm fine with them going down, I do not envy the position their fans are in right now. It's tough.

Would also laugh my a** off if they end up hosting Lincoln at that awful stadium in a league match next season.
