I have been looking at umpteen variables for ages now with regards to the possible permutations, points required etc and in my back of a *** packat calculaions yesterday at home to Stoke was down for 3 points. The point, in isolation, looked a poor result but in one of my glass half full moments this morning, I could be persuaded otherwise as West Brom and Palace both lost. What is the consensus?
Point won or two points dropped?

Without question it was 2 points dropped, there is no other way of looking at it as far as I am concerned.
Now, that said, it may not be as bad a result as I though it would be prior to 3pm yesterday. I am starting to think that CT may have been a little generous when it comes to the points total for the 18th placed team this season, and 36 points may actually be enough to survive this time round BUT, Norwich MUST beat West Brom, and Sunderland, to keep the possibility of a low points total.
Totally agree Thia.
Yesterday Sunderland & WBA all need to produce three points each.
Now somehow those points have to come from a much more difficult source.... Away from home in games we don't expect them to have come from, or once again relying on others to lose ground.

I guess we won't know until the end of the season in truth. It certainly feels like 2 points dropped particularly given the fact that we hadn't conceded at Carrow Rd in the league this year and Stoke hadn't won away from home since about 1979. However, with Palace and West Brom both losing at home we've perhaps got away with it to some degree. In a sense Cardiff winning might be the worst result of the day for us, as that keeps them interested whereas a draw in that game would have all but consigned both teams to relegation.
I'm off to St Marys next week and now think we need at least a point there.

we can get points next week. Saints are by all accounts not firing on all cylinders. Swansea away should hold no fear. our status is still ours to throw away
I did say either 36 or the team with the worse GD on 37 and I think that one of these is still likely.I had Cardiff on 34 and Fulham on 32.I think the first may be right but that Fulham may now fail to break into the 30's.The team apart from those that looks most in trouble is WBA.They have won four games so far this season and Mel has suddenly shorted to odds on for the sack.Something afoot?
