Arsenal win was when I thought we were safe, must admit to a few doubts creeping in since then.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
[Albion] 5 clear, 3 to play, we are safe

I just looked who the teams below us had left and it was pretty clear not all of them were going to win enough for us to drop regardless of our results
Beat Man.Utd.on Friday - we're safe.
Lose on Friday, if Stains and Swans lose on Saturday we're almost there - Swansea would have to make up a lot of goal difference to finish above us.
If Stains and Swans lose on Saturday, but we've picked up a single point on Friday, we're safe.
So.............we are NOT safe yet

Been looking at the remaining fixtures. To remain objective haven't given any points to us although I think we'll pick up at least one more point. I think were safe because Swansea have to play Southampton.
Bournemouth 4 more points =42
Watford 3 more points =41
West Ham 5 more points = 40
Swansea 6 more points = 39
Huddersfield 3 more points = 38
Brighton = 37
Saints 1 more point = 33

I can tell you now Southampton will get over 36pts.

Southampton 16th for me, us 17th and one of Hudds or Swans 18th. Very squeaky bum, but OK.
Wouldn't be surprised if they finish above us. It will be between Swansea and Hudders, too many variables to chose which

If Stains and Swansea both lose next week, then we’re mathematically safe even if we lose 0-10 on Friday.
If we were in 17th and 5 clear of Saints, I’d be a bit nervous. Fact is that we’re 14th with another 3 teams with 2 or more points fewer than us and tough fixtures. The chances of all 4 of those teams picking up the points needed to overtake are very slim. Consensus after Arse win was that we needed another 3 points for safety. We now have them.

At the risk of stating the bleedin' obvious, we're not safe until we're mathematically safe.
In that case they'll beat Swansea and get a point a piece at Everton and home to City.
Looks like a point on Friday is critical. Bournemouth then have to avoid defeat at home to Swansea to not be dragged into it. I fancy Huddersfield to beat Arsenal.

Bournemouth 500/1 Could be worth a tenner,

I know all results are still possible, but rationally I think we have enough.
Can’t see Southampton catching us now, Everton are good at home and I can’t see them getting anything against City. Swansea look in dire form and could see them being very negative in their game against Southampton.

Add Hudds into that....quite possible they won’t get another point.

Not seen such Bravery!
Not quite.
If we at least match the Bournemouth v Swansea and the Everton v Southampton results next weekend we ARE safe.
If Swansea lose at Bournemouth and Southampton lose at Everton we stay up mathematically.

Huddersfield will get hammered at City and Chelsea and Arsenal won’t lose in Wengers last league game

Quite amusing that with 3 games to go Man Utd looks like the easiest game , How times have changed .
She might sing in the nude, how do you know.
No, #nwgull called it right. Win lose or draw against Utd, if Swansea and Saints both lose on Saturday we're mathematically safe - either of them could finish above us, but because they play each other they can't both overtake us. If Swansea pass us, Saints can't, and vice versa.
