[muskie]

Odds slashed from 5/1 to 7/2.

Watch this space.

I think we're fucked.

West Ham handed major survival boost as Spurs and Forest count cost of 'success'


 

[onsideman]

 

Yeah fair enough but I think better for West Ham because it is awful in there for the early kick offs

Sunderland game atmosphere was good.

Cos we flew out the blocks and were 3 up at HT.

cause and effect?

[fraser]

Apparently it only gets moved if City are away on the Wednesday so definitely beneficial to us if they are.. 

[Mad Ferret]

Not for me

Fair enough I wasn't there 

[Tomshardware]

Yes 8pm if they play on the Wednesday I believe, but better than 12.30pm

Every ground in the county struggles for atmosphere in early kick-offs.

Yeah but we're not playing at every ground.. Just ours

Was reading the early Saturday KO against Man City on 14/3 could be moved dependent on if City play away in Europe on the prior Tue or Wed. Will know soon.

Fingers crossed that does get moved.

Imagine the atmosphere at 8pm Sat night rather than at 12:30.

Opta had us at around 70% likely to be relegated. Forest was 23% and Spurs 4% rest of the possibilities less than 1%. 

changing by the week though after Christmas our probability was above 80!

 

I wonder what the odds were on Spurs to go down, a mere 7 games ago, when they were 13 points ahead of us (i.e the drop zone)?

Pretty good odds I imagine. Google tells me 100/1 at the start of the year but not sure if that's true. Lot shorter now.

Sorry folks. Don’t get your hopes up.

PRIMED FOF THE DROP.!

New CEO bounce

[Massive Attack]

To give us a real boost for survival to pick everyone up for the final stretch, her announcing her departure by the end of the season would be a huge fillip for us all. Let it be so....

[Pub Bigot]

This is worth discussing here. A what if scenario for you all to chew on. 

There are rumours that Lady Brady is about to leave the club.e The possible reasons for her departure are:

1. Accounts published late due to the club being £100mill in the red.

2. Tara Warren’s taken up a role with the new independent football authority (or whatever they are/called) and we could be under investigation. 

3. Revelations could come out in the very near future about an ”unnamed Premier League executive”.

As the team are building momentum, what would the impact be of any or all of the above in our bid for survival? 

[Massive Attack]

Sp*rs have a full team currently out injured. Once those players are back, they comfortably pick up enough points, sadly!

They only get 2 back from injury by mid March and by that time they will have already played Fulham, Palace and Liverpool before they then face Forest with 8 only games to go. Couple that also with the fact they'll still have their Captain out for the next important game. Players returning, especially those being out long term typically need a bit of time to get up and running, let alone at full tilt at their very best again. Time is running out for them.

The "Because it's X Club" has to be the weakest argument for anyone staying up. I heard Darren Bent and another pundit say that because it's Spurs they can't see them going down. Sorry, doesn't work like that in reality. If you perform poorly enough then the name and stature of a Club alone won't prevent you from going down. As Villa, Newcastle as well as us will testify. I hope that is Spurs mentality going in to the relegation run-in though...

[honky cat]

They were talking about the run in on the 6pm thing on sky last night  They worked out the average league position of the opponents. Ours is 8th, I think forest was 9th/10th, Spurs 11th. So we are certainly favourites to go down with the hardest games. The player pundit however, still thought we'd stay up. Because it's us, and we can pull a shock when needed.

I fancy us to get something Saturday.

Righto, computer says no. The cunts are only 4 points ahead of us with 33 remaining.
