City Survival

[remote]

I’m in Liverpool on a weekend break - the city centre is flooded with all sorts of plastic Liverpool fans from all corners of the world

There have been a few busy midweek evenings as well lately.
Its a nice city Nin. Hope you enjoyed the trip.

I always feel better when someone else loses.

Keep it up Burnley.

A tough ask with 2 vital away games in just 4 days now with the Brighton game rearranged for 16th April.

Was hoping Brighton would be rearranged to FA Cup weekend but them beating Millwall scuppered that idea. Will have to ask for a refund on my ticket now as I dont fancy dragging myself to Brighton and back on a Tuesday night

An even tougher ask has got even tougher.

Bournemouth are already thinking of their summer holidays. Burnley must fancy their chances.

Only positive there is that Howe managed Burnley for a couple of years and he didn't get on there for several reasons. Went back to Bournemouth and shone again.

Maybe he'll want to get one over them as much as dream of his holidays?

Or perhaps Mr Arter will have some influence on his parent club team mates.

Southampton still in it marginally

Yeah but their run in isn’t as bad as ours or Brighton. Regardless of whether Burnley get a result at Bournemouth if we lose our next game I can’t see us staying up. If only that blindsman had gone to Specsavers

That’s Burnley safe; how can such an average team survive? Worse team seen at CCS this season.

Not bitter just resigned to accepting fate has had it in for us since August.

Very true Nin.

Infamy, infamy, they've all had it in for me.

And those bloody Teletubbie officials in particular last week.

 

[clingo]

Agree. I know we could have done better in a lot of aspects, but anything that could go wrong this season contrived to do so. Perhaps we'll get a season's worth of good luck in six games.

Not over until the fat lady sings, I can hear her gargling.

Will she spit or swallow?

 

[Barry Tiger]

Do not despair. There are 12 winnable points in our last 6 games to give us 40 points and safety. And if we do need something from our last game I am sure Ollie will oblige

Merson's take on the Brighton/Cardiff relegation run in - very interesting (if simplistic) analysis..........

If only it was that simple

At the end of the day City just have to do their own business. If Wolves, Newcastle etc do us favours then all good and well but as it stands we’re down. City need to win at least 1 game if BHA get no more points.

IMO I can see BHA springing one unexpected result - like where did that win at Palace come from?

All the time dwelling on this you come back to the goalless draws with Udders, the home defeat to Burnley and the robbery by Chelsea
