Saint86

For me it doesn't work in Chrome, just internet explorer. A rarity for sure.

I still can't understand why our fans are incapable of protesting against the board? As a fanbase, we have come around and realised where the real cancer lies, and yet we'd sooner jeer the manager than those who ultimately hamstring us as a club. Madness.

No its more fake news rubbish. The biggest part of that rubbish was that AOC was not part of the championship team!!

Fans of the club I imagine.

Lemina has decided to put in another of his garbage performances so far then

The irony is that this is the attitude that allows boards like ours to exist. Fan's are suckers who will just keep coming back for more. They are the only shred of loyalty in a business that just farms money for everyone else involved.

Unless things change, it will 3 from Saints, Stoke, West Brom and Huddersfield.

Somewhere in a parallel universe, saints are the world's biggest football club. Lets enjoy that feeling

Paraphrased what you put

Trying that predictor I got the following teams relegated: Stoke, West Brom, and saints. Survival threshold was 34/35 points depending on gd.

nah, that would still be a zero pointer under my prediction criteria. Embarrassing though

Which is my point Wade... If he wasn't sacked after Palace / Leicester / (insert other), then no way is he going to get sacked after Liverpool.

Its too late to be messing around now. We have improved in recent weeks, have to hope that we continue to net benefit out of the teams around us. If we do we'll stay up. After Hoedt's mistake, yesterday was always a loss.

So I have updated the table with actual points returns vs predicted. Maybe I was naive to allow for 5 points from the past 3 games, but either way... we are now sightly under-performing against what was a fairly conservative points estimate in the first place. Give then teams around us are frequently beating mid table and upper table teams, I really struggle to see how 35points will be sufficient. I guess we just need to ensure we take points off of our direct rivals.

Good lord, if we are paying more than clubs like Newcastle, Swansea, West Brom and Stoke, then we really will be in trouble if we get relegated. The miss management of the club is shocking at the moment. Too much control in the hands of a very average DoF...

He isn't going to get sacked for losing to Liverpool. Get real.

I didn't renew after Puel. Wasn't prepared to watch his crap another season. The football is better now... just.... but the board take the micky from the fans. No way am I paying to be mugged off by reed and co.

So what, here we go again?

If we go down, and it brings about the demise of LR, RK, Gao etc, then that is a good thing. Only silver lining i can see.

Its more that Liverpool cannot afford to lose to us

Crazy league, have to beat Liverpool now...

Which is it, he was offered more than he was on at Arsenal, or Everton outbid us? I would also ask why this wasn't agreed on 1st January. Pure dithering. Simple fact is that despite being flush with cash, we refuse time and again to pay market value. The End.

Calling BS.

I absolutely hope you're right. That table is just a conservative baseline. If we are going to stay up we will outperform it imo. It will be a lot clearer after another couple of matches anyway. After the win against west brom, getting results at Burnley and Leicester certainly seems to be more likely... but that could equally just be another false dawn!!
