Don't much fancy Palace's run-in

[Brighton TID]

A - Chelsea
A - Saints
H - Arsenal
H - Leicester
A - Liverpool
H - Spurs
H - Burnley
A - Man City
H - Hull
A - Man Utd

Can't see them getting more than 7 points out of that lot.

Hull have Man City away and Spurs at home but otherwise all potentially "winnable" fixtures.

I think we all know very well they'll drag their sorry arses clear of the mire in good time, despite stinking the Premier League out for nearly two seasons now.

Taking a customer for a hospitality Jolly to Old Trafford for the last game of the season. Would love if that is the day they go down!

 

[Stat Brother]

palace are 11/1 maybe 12/1 for the win tomorrow, I'm sorry to say I'm more than a little tempted.

Big Sam 2 weeks off, preparing for the game.
While the Chelsea players have been, here, there, and everywhere saying how they'd like to be anywhere else

I'd love to be able to include it into my usual negative bet, but that's asking for trouble for the Albion.

Said this exact thing to a Palace fan I was working for this morning, as we were leaving the house of course

It's a horrible run in - by far the worst of any side in the league - but Fat Sam has managed to turn things around with 3 wins and 3 clean sheets on the bounce. We look solid at the back for the first time in well over a year, and with Zaha up top we can cause problems for anyone. I think we'll be alright but it'll be close. If we go down then the fault will lie with Pardew rather than BFS.

You've been the worst team in the entire 92 for over a year. Anything less than relegation in May would be a TRAVESTY.

The damage has been done and we're done for . It was good while it lasted and now you can suck on the premier tit for a while and give Tony's a rest for a season .

Swansea v Middlesbrough on Sunday. Come on the Swans !!!

Mental, isn't it? We've lost to Swansea TWICE, lost 4-0 to Sunderland at home in the first half, etc. and yet the bookies still think we're odds on to survive.

What BFS has managed to do in the last month or so just shows how poor Pardew was. There's no way a squad like ours should be in a relegation battle, if only BFS had taken over sooner

Come on the Swans indeed. I'd be very happy to take 17th place at this point, and I'm hoping that the bottom three as it stands will be the three that go down.

That actually did make me chuckle.

I kind of meant I'd rather the Swans win as I think they have more of a chance of catching and overtaking you than Boro do

It's not so much the points Palace get as the points those below are clearly incapable of getting. Palace are safe- even if they only pick up a few points.

Hull remaining fixtures:

West Ham - H
Boro - H
Man C - A
Stoke - A
Watford - H
Southampton - A
Sunderland - H
Palace - A
Spurs - H


Swansea remaining fixtures:

Boro - H
Spurs - H
West Ham - A
Watford - A
Stoke - H
Man U - A
Everton - H
Sunderland - A
WBA - H

Pasty's Verdict: Hull will get out of it and possibly finish above Palace. Swansea won't, so Sunderland, Boro and Swansea down, Palace finish 17th

There ought to be a 'quality of service' rule surrounding all promotions and relegations.

Any Premier League team that can't reach a minimum of 38 points should be automatically relegated.
Promoting all teams that reach, say, 86 points. (92 seems a bit too high)

Play-offs can be used to find a 'winner' from the last 4 teams that qualify.

 

[Se20]

The games against the top 6 won't matter, the games against the bottom 10 will.
8 points should be enough.

Waste of time you coming up then.

I admire your optimism mate but it's too late .

 

[crasher]

Not a chance Palace will go down (unfortunately). Allardyce is a one trick pony, but damn good at that one trick and with he money they've spent on players they should never have been in the mix in the first place.

It was fun while it lasted but Sunderland, Boro and Hull look nailed on to me.

Agreed. You speak a lot of sense these days.
