The Now-Irrelevant 2024/25 Relegation Battle (Without Everton!)

[canuckblue]

Basically, any combination of points won by us and dropped by Ipswich and Leicester totalling 22 and we're home and dry. The most either can finish on is 53 points, and they play each other on the penultimate weekend.
Relax, folks.

Wolves still a fair way behind too. It's not an 'us or Leicester' scenario at least...

 

[PeregrineT]

Big win for Wolves, at this point they may have pulled themselves away from it with their last two surprising wins.

 

[Gallaeo]

Do Leicester have some type of Points deduction to start with if they do get relegated to the Championship. Sure they may do, but cant actually remember with all the messing about

Would love if they did but with sales last season they might be ok?
That technicality of not being in any league as at 30.6.2023 can't be retrospectively dealt with

 

[Lee Smith]

I’ll be staggered if our current tally of 31 isn’t already enough to ultimately keep us up.

Either Ipswich or Leicester would need to win 5 of their last 12 games to get to 32 points. Between them, they’ve currently won 7 out of 52 games.

Think it's done

Yeah, I cant see Liverpool going down at this point.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Yeah not of those bottom three will exit the relegation zone now. Title is obviously done, relegation done, it's only a question of whether it'll be Forest in the Champions League, or them and Newcastle or Bournemouth given there will be five teams from the Premier League next season.

Oh what Everton has missed out on by being so disgracefully run for decades - teams like Forest, Newcastle and Bournemouth vying for Champions League football. Please, let our time come soon - ffs.

I hope absolutely everything of importance is done and dusted before our final home game...

I dont think wolves are out the woods yet.

I mean a 5 point cushion is huge at this point, so I certainly wouldnt be putting money on it, but a bad week and they back in the mix.

 

[FinnTrikker]

Worry is who is going to stop them inthe near future,Arsenaal don't look convincing of having what it takes,2 of the original Sky 4 are awful,only hope is a quick City reset or we're back to the future late 70's early 80's period of cultist dominance...god forbid.

They’ll limp over the line due to Leicester and Ipswich not being good enough I think

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

Other than playing us, Wolves have quite a favourable schedule through at least early April. That’s why I think the current bottom three are out.

 

[West Side Charlie]

Just looking at the odds, Man City still only 14/1. I just can't imagine the premier league taking them on, not after the farcical loss to Leicester and some of their rules found unlawful.
We will go down in history as the club most bummed by the PL
