Drewks, your probably right in our case but west ham are usually there or there abouts and they have it easy ....

17 games to get 25pts.

All those dropped points while Pulis was here are gonna come back and haunt us.

.

 That 1.47pts a match, so where do you think these points will come from? Anybody know? I mean all games to me look difficult at present.

Arsenal - H - L
West Ham - A - W
Brighton - H - W
Everton - A - D
Man City - A - L
Southampton - H - W
Chelsea - A - L
Hudders - H - W
Watford - A - D
Leicester - H - D
Bmouth - A - D
Burnley - H - D
Swansea - H - W
Man Utd - A - L
Liverpool - H - L
Newcastle - A - D
Spurs - H - L
C Palace - A - D

That makes 22pts at the very best. Not looking good.

Games in RED are the games we need to target to turn draws into wins. In fact, if we get a poor return from them games then we really can't stay up. Simple as.

That's a bit worrying. I really thought there were more games left than that to turn it round.
Mind you, I could see 9 points from those last 3 if we had to - as long as we can find someone who can surprise a cow with an instrument beloved by country musicians.

The key to all of this is how others perform in their final matches as well.

Often when we are in this predicament the ‘others’ miraculously win games that should on the basis of form certain defeats. Sunderland bearing Man Utd comes to mind!

I will have to unearth my old spreadsheet this season and start to track the remaining fixtures of the bottom six to see how we compare.

I suppose a lot will also depend on where those teams are at the time; will Spurs have switched off (if 2nd or 3rd place is already theirs), will the other 2 be 6 pointers?
Let's hope we don't need maximum points by then.

FFS !!!!

Nacer Chadli is out for two months with his injury. Salomon Rondon will probably miss the next two games. #wba

[Ska'dForLife-WBA]

We'll continue to use this thread for the matches against Arsenal tomorrow and West Ham on Tuesday. Will cook up a new one for the FA Cup next weekend.

Chadli has done bugger all and in reality Rondon is eating a position on the pitch anyway.

So it opens doors for others. Maybe the tea lady can get into Ska’d goalscoring table?

Happy New Year? Happy New Year? What a joke!
Now bottom.
Need something out of the Arsenal game.
