    The pressure is on both of us but in different ways. Pressure on us to maintain/increase our advantage and for them to overtake us.

    You've forgotten to divide by ten and carry the one.

    Imagine the pressure of a relegation play-off at a neutral venue.

    Don't they take head to head results into account before a play off would be required?

    No idea.

    Hopefully for our sake, they do.

    Usual protocol is:
    Points
    Goal difference
    goals scored
    Head to head
    Play off

    Us to draw to Everton, beat Sunderland, beat West Brom.

    You to beat Sunderland, beat Palace, lose to Spurs.

    Palace to lose all their games.

    Palace to get relegated.

    That is a scenario I could definitely live with. Though not sure I'd survive the stress of the final day.

    I never said I thought Swansea would win all three. I think they'll slip up. Scroll up.

    Yes by one team or the other. Sorry couldn't resist.

    No, I don't believe all games we play are winnable but I do think our next 3 are. Sunderland because we are a better team and have a brilliant home record since Marco Silva took over. Crystal Palace because they are weak defensively as a result of injuries as was shown by Burnley. Keep it tight at the back and we could score the goal we need to give us three points. Spurs because their season will be over and their heads will be somewhere else. We'd have to be at our best all over the pitch but yes I believe we can win it.

    Whether we do win all three depends on a number of factors other than how well we play, the ref, injuries and a little bit of luck.

    I agree that we can look at all three games and give reasons why we can win. Sunderland is obviously the game that we should win. Tottenham may relax but they are a very good team. Crystal Palace are a good side and they have beaten some very good teams and then lost to poor teams. The last two games could go either way. I think Silva will make sure we beat Sunderland.

    we always make it hard for ourselves! Watford play offs (h) Cardiff already up (h) Derby play offs (h) I can't imagine this year will be any less nail biting? But the upside on those 3 games is we came through it! :emoticon-0148-yes:
