Relegation

[Wat Tyler]

Mad how about a month ago the majority thought 34/35 points would be enough.

Burnley's latest accounts show the club would have to repay a "significant proportion" of a £65m loan at the end of the season if relegated from the Premier League.

That sounds very GOT

It is true and if you bought a matchday programme from the other day then keep an eye on it as the Chelsea players start to gradually disappear from all the photos; Back To The Future style...

You think Leeds and Burnley could conceivably lose all of their remaining games? They're on 34 atm.

Reading back the first 20 pages of this thread.. The players were playing with the same arrogance as the fans.

Would love this to happen. It’s possible but it’s not very Everton.

I really worry for Burnley long term, even if they do survive this season. It just feels like they are delaying the inevitable if they stay up.

They have by far the worst type of ownership model in football and relegation could put them in massive, massive trouble. Any changes to the parachute payments could well be near-fatal for them if (or more likely when) they go down.

I think in the economic climate, a good few teams, Ourselves included could be part of that overall, potential financial collapse, its imperative that we maintain our top flight status and agree Burnley could be a victim of this if they go.

Havin said all that i hope they get right royally bummed in their remaining fixtures!

Right now, I couldn’t care less what relegation does to them tbh.

Memories of when we got relegated in a friendly

Absolutely scandalous how the PL allowed them to be bought out the way they were.

Leeds could.

And don’t forget, it 34/35 points he was referring to.

Leeds could conceivably take just one point from those last four games ergo three more points for us, taking us to 35, would do it given our superior GD.

That said, I am thinking ten points from our last five games is doable for us and that might even get us above Villa given thier downturn and the fixtures they have coming up.
