[Albion] What points tally would you accept today from our last 8 games?

[hart's shirt]

6

A win against Huddersfield (overdue) and a point against Palace (local bragging rights), Leicester, and United/Spurs at home for the kids.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Enough to stay up.

Good answer! exactly this. Let's not kid ourselves, at the beginning of the season we would have bitten anyone's hand off if we could have been guaranteed to finish 17th. This season is all about sheer survival for me, however many or few points it takes.

Those extra few points that we need, will have to be won at home l think, as the way we seem tom set up away from home makes us a different team, trying to avoid defeat rather than actually win games.

I hope, and pray, that 38 or 39 points will be enough. I think it will.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Three more draws will be fine.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

24.

 

[Tricky Dicky]

The way the bottom clubs are losing at the mo, we may well have enough already. Forgetting WBA, the others need to essentially win 3 more games than us, which is a tall order from 8. We're not going to get too many more points, I'd take 4 or more from here in.

10 please, the way we finish the season will impact the perception of the club and recruitment in terms of how appealing we are to potential signings. If we survive on the last day of the season by the skin of our teeth, that would be a disappointment.

Unrealistic.

 

[Albion Robster]

Would take 6 points.
3 against Hudds at home and 3 against Palarse away from home, they need the points more than us.

Unrealistic.

Any more unrealistic than beating Arsenal at home?

You aren't one of those fans who is disappointed that we aren't going to qualify for Europe are you?

This is our very first season in probably the toughest league in Europe. We need to keep our feet on the ground. Survival is all.

[Tim Over Whelmed]

4 points would be enough but I'd rather sooner than later, I don't want three of them to come from Liverpool last day of the season!

 

[Exile]

6 more please, and as soon as possible.

 

[Triggaaar]

9 but would prefer 24

So if you were offered 8 now, you wouldn't take it

[DFL JCL]

9... i would expect us to maintain our form from the rest of the season until the end. Been working on roughly a point a game, so i see no reason why that should change.

 

[portslade seagull]

Enough to stay up. 5pts should do

 

[DavidRyder]

I think overly cautious, 2 more wins. I just want us to be safe before the Man U & Liverpool games, so they can be stress free parties!

 

[rippleman]

Yep, win against Leicester and Huddersfield, draw at Palace and Burnley.

The way we are setting up away from home suggests to me that we will struggle to pick up the away points at Palace and Burnley. I think we need to get 4 points from the next two home games. If we don't get at least one win from Leicester / Huddersfield, I fear we may be in trouble unless CH changes the way we set up away from home which is about as unlikely as the second coming!

 

[Simster]

Beat Leicester and Huddersfield please. Pretty please. Not only would we 100% safe after that, but the top 10 dream is back on.

Genuinely squeaky bum time if we lose both, however.
