[Albion] To Avoid Potter Bashing - Staying Up Tracker - 2020/21 - Game 38 Update - 1 OVER

[Mellotron]

You're safe when the season ends, and you're outside the bottom three.

You can definitely be safe before then. Manchester City for example, I would say are safe from relegation officially.

 

[Giraffe]

I think we are already safe. Fulham won't get to our number of points.

I'm therefore looking upwards and I have a good feeling about our remaining fixtures.

Sheff Utd (A) - tracker says nil points - so anything is a bonus, I think we have enough to win this.
Leeds (H) - tough - but our record against them for several years is sensational. I'd take a draw.
Wolves (A) - we never lose to Wolves, just never, can't see it happening now either, another draw?
West Ham (H) - as above, another team we have dominated. They are on great form, but so are we, another draw?
Man City (H) - they will thinking about the champions league or super leage or world league or whatever these greedy tossers fantasise over these days, I fancy a sneaky point again.
Arsenal (A) - another team we have done surprisingly well against - at least a point for me.

So conceivably another 8-10 points. 42-44 points I'm going for. Blue and white tinted glasses. 2-4 over tracker.

 

[A1X]

Think we need 37 points to be safe .

Agreed. At the moment I think we're still vulnerable to a last ditch surge by someone. Getting to 37 makes it an immense psychological barrier for those below us as well as ourselves.

I think the earliest possible mathematically safe scenario is no earlier than 5pm on Saturday May 1st after our Leeds game.
This relies on >>

Tonight: WBA L v Leicester
Saturday: Albion W v Sheff Utd
Sun: WBA L v Villa
Saturday May 1st: Albion W v Leeds

This means Albion on 40 points. SAFE.
and the max points left for
WBA 39 (5 games left )
Fulham: 39 (4 games left )

 

[Reddleman]

Still on track for 40 points, love this tracker.

 

[Icy Gull]

This Potter fanboy would love to give Potter a bashing tonight. He did not set up tonight’s team up to compete from kick off, we were losing 50/50s from the off. More steel required from kick off against shit teams who battle. He fecked up tonight, end of. It is his achilles’ heal. Tonight was SHITE

 

[Hamilton]

The tracker should be rebranded "The path to consistent mediocrity"

Fact is, it's all rather dull at the moment.

I think it’s allowed to believe in the manager but still acknowledge when he and the team haven’t delivered [emoji106]

I’m Potter in, but feel there certainly are issues we need to address going forward.

Maybe you should support Chelsea or something.

 

[Hamilton]

Maybe you should support Chelsea or something.

Maybe you should find another club to manage.

 

[dazzer6666]

One more point than expected this week

 

[Giraffe]

Sorry for the delay but I was just a bit "meh" after Saturday.

 

[Jack Straw]

You feel a bit glum after a defeat, then along comes The Tracker, and world is once again a happy place!

 

[Richy_Seagull]

6 points from the next 3 would be going some, but here's to hoping.

 

[A1X]

Feels like our last big golden opportunity to get ahead of the tracker blown

Yes agreed, it was a great opportunity to get above Palace (in tracker terms) as well. Can't see it happening now. Think the season is just dragging out now into mundaneness.

Honestly I would be delighted at this now. This has been such a bizarre season I've got a horrible feeling Fulham have got a couple of shock wins on the cards and the last few games are gonna be horribly nervy....

 

[Greg Bobkin]

You're joking, right? All of those remaining teams – barring City – are beatable.

Leeds: beat them earlier in the season
Wolves: not looking great and got humped at the weekend;
West Ham: we're their bogey team;
Arsenal: they could be mid-table by then and playing for four-fifths of naff all.

Might not happen, but wins ARE possible from that lot. One bad game doesn't make it all doom and gloom.

 

[A1X]

West Ham: we're their bogey team

Also doesn’t get us above the rate.

 

[Jeremiah]

I'd happily settle for Victories over Leeds & W. Ham as our last points of this season.
