If teams get points in the remaining games at the same rate they have done so far then 32 points would be safety. Obviously we can't be sure that's what will happen.
8 days ago that same theory suggested 29 points to survive. It's bollocks, not anything worth thought.
Why? For every team we overtake, that's one place further from the drop. Two or three wins will probably see us safe, lets go and get them.
Think we would all settle for those results today b4 4.45pm,,, great stuff though not quite perfect i agree
Chelsea now becomes a shot to nothing.Get beat and were no worse off and another games chalked off, but any points we can take will widen the gap and tighten up the title race
29 points may be enough. It's still the most sensible way of looking at it than anything else. How would you just the number of points needed? Pluck a number out of the air?
Look at the teams we're in contention with; look at their run-ins; then estimate how many points each might get.....?
please log in to view this image I gotta admit that I got somewhat annoyed over the goal, but might be a valueable goal in the long run At least I "bought" my stake back with 10 mins to go.
If only we can get a point or more tomorrow! We still need QPR to lose. I am cheering every kick of any team playing those below us.
And how far out will you be given the likelihood you will be very wrong. For example, look at Hull City. They might win against Burnley but they might lose all the other games. You can estimate they MAY get two or three points from the other games but you can't have any confidence in your estimate.
