Seven points clear with nine to play. Hmmmm......no bother, just like being seven points clear with three to play......





...........oh......

Palace have ten left.

We're 6 points from Europe and 7 from relegation.
There's a European spot for eighth place these days, is there? News to me.



Three games from Europe is still possible (if rather unlikely), but nothing to do with points.

We started the season strong.
We bought in good talent during the winter break that has galvanized the energy in the squad.
We will finish strong.
We’re in the EPL to stay.

On whether Brighton are safe?

"We are edging there, I am sure if we lost every game we had left, we would go down. We have to keep at it and hopefully see us over the line."

If it's good enough for Glenn, it's good enough for me.

2 more wins and a few draws i'd say, it's going to be very tight in the middle / bottom half of the table

Not yet, but CH was right all along, just needed to wait for the players to come in to allow us to attack, up until then we played to our strengths, and mostly got away with it.
I expect us, with our new players to stay up now, as long as we keep up the form we have.

They're not seven points clear of anybody, though - well, apart from West Brom.

Yes, but we are not seven clear with nine to play when the team we are seven clear of, have ten to play. Palace get a point tomorrow then we are six clear with nine to play.

The team look very determined, and are playing well. Injuries/suspensions could still hurt us, but after today's match a little bit of confidence is seeping into me!

I'm more confident than I was yesterday... It's not over until it's over though.

The English leagues have three Europa qualification spots. Carabao cup winners ( Man City) so that then goes to 6th in the league; Fa Cup winners (so most likely Man U, Tottenham or Chelsea) so 7th in the league; and 5th in the league. Burnley in 7th are only six ahead of us and we have to play them. Could happen.



Won't happen :lolol:

Today feels like the day we rubber stamped it. 3 home league wins in a row and 2 good away draws. All those negative pricks from earlier in the season we we had a bad run have gone quiet...!

The betting markets effectively make it a 8 horse race now, and exclude us:

No way we are going down now nor do I think we are in the relegation battle anymore, great results for us yesterday and then 3 today for us.
