Odds slashed from 5/1 to 7/2.

Watch this space.

I think we're fucked.

Sounds simple.

Forest do the same and they probably stay ahead of us on GD.

10 from 8 will do for Spurs

8 from 8 will do Leeds....count them as safe.

Chasing is not the position to be in.

Like I said earlier, 3 pts from wolves is a must. A defeat to an out of form Villa would hurt
We have to get 1 more point than Leeds over the next 7 matches, do that and it’s us v them last match and a win sees us finish higher

I feel the point they got had a lot more to do with Liverpool than with spurs. They’ve been pretty poor of late. They weren’t even that good when they played us, just that more or less every shot they took ended up in the back of our net via some sort of lucky deflection and the score really really flattered them. They had almost as many shots, far more possession, way more passes than they did against us. Six shots on target and five went in. Ridiculous.

Same here.
I remember my Dad was driving me somewhere and had sports report on the car radio. Jimmy Armfield piped up with "West Ham are a bad team and deserve to go down".
It hurt but he wasn't wrong.

Take it a weekend at a time. Another ok to good weekend. We played 2 in the league and kept it level with Forest, Spurs and Leeds! Well done! On to the next weekend.

That ain't what was said though. Seems entirely possible that Spurs get a bit better than they have been lately, this massive backlash has almost shamed them into putting in some effort. Some players to come back in and a kinder (on paper at least) fixture list than Forest or us. Tudor probably keeps his job a bit longer after that, so that's a bonus for everyone else.

Villa’s last 5 home league games have been a win against Brighton a draw with Leeds & defeats by Brentford Everton & Chelsea
Have gone off the boil & have a midweek European game 
We are going to need some unexpected wins and have to have a go
Id take a point of course

Point at Villa would be another great result. Forest & Spurs can’t both win.
One of them gets a bad result or they draw and it’s ’as you were’. Two draws from arguably the toughest games in our run in isn’t bad at all.

Forest are probably most nervous after this weekend.

3 more wins will do it I reckon.

The team that hasn't won for 12 games you see winning easily.. The team who have lost 1 in 9 you see losing to the team that is in terrible form.. 
 
 
His point is that runs and form can change, just as a team can go on a good run a team can end a bad run.  Spurs result today could be the catalyst for them to start winning some games.   While their dire form has been amusing I've always thought that they have the players there to get out of it.   

Not seen any of Villas recent games but seems that they are not in great form but have some key players returning to their team.   I do think we can go there and get something but we saw with the Liverpool thrashing that on any given day you can end up on the wrong end of a result through luck, decisions, off day etc.

Really unlikely we get anything at Villa.

Let’s be real here.

Spurs Forest draw & we beat Villa

Saw the other day we might be interested in Joe Gomez next season
Slow, injury prone & negative
Obviously the priority if we stay up is signing Disasi & offloading Kilman to some mugs

I hope we beat Villa just to shut that sad fuck ferret up.
TBH any of the three results suits us. Draw is probably what I’d prefer. Keeps both of them right down there. Especially if we can win. 
 
 
OK, not what we wanted but keeps Tudor in place for at least another few games I reckon. We've lost no ground on anyone with arguably the hardest game played. A win for us at Villa would be handy, suspect a draw though. Forest are losers this weekend, nice winnable home fixture, still no goal and their next openent is a slightly rejuvenated Spurs. I expect they're quite worried.
