[Albion] Will Brighton relegate Leeds?

[Return of the Rev]

Could be a massive game for the champions of Europe

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

I bloody hope so.

[Superphil]

It. Would. Be. Hilarious.

 

[portlock seagull]

Leeds are so massive they can’t fit through the relegation trapdoor so it’s impossible to relegate them sadly.

 

[Codner's Wallop]

Can you just imagine how incredulous the fans of one the world’s most historic, famous and important football clubs would feel about relegation to the CHAMPIONSHIP? Doesn’t bear thinking about. There would have to be a public enquiry.

And we also have the bonus ball of the BURNLEY liberals possibly dropping out instead…

 

[GrizzlingGammon]

The cherry on top of our best season so far.

 

[Swansman]

Nope. But Leeds might relegate Leeds.

 

[LamieRobertson]

I don’t know

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Unlikely, but not impossible.
I nabbed a ticket the other day, on the off chance
Would love to see it.

On MOTD after Liverpool beat them, Marsch said it was the best team in the world against the best club in the world

 

[B-right-on]

Still hoping Everton f it up. Looking less likely after the Chelsea win tho.

He was talking about the supporters, possibly the most abhorrent fan base in World football, but their continuous, loud support of a losing team is very, very impressive . We could learn a lot from them in that respect, I'd do it myself but I can't be bothered. I'd love us to send them down.

There are a lot of football clubs in the world. I wouldn't put Leeds among the top group of well supported clubs. They went from 40k fans down to mid twenties when they dropped out of the PL. Hardly world's best.

It’s not that unlikely with Leeds having Arsenal and Chelsea to play before us. If Everton have +3 points on Leeds by the end of that game, Leeds are down due to their terrible GD, which is a stat they can thank Bielsa for.

93rd minute winner from the penalty spot after lengthy VAR check or 4-0 up at half time not sure which is preferable to send Leeds down.

 

[Originunknown]

They will have earned it, awful season, awful club

Pompey were the world’s best fans not so long ago…according to the media. The intimidating atmosphere at Palace is apparently up there too. Are there three more dislikable clubs?

 

[Pavilionaire]

I still think it will go down to the last day but if we do beat them they could well be in the bottom 3 with a mountain to climb on that final day.

It is also likely to be a cardfest with the partisan crowd egging on their bunch of cloggers.

I just think Leeds' recruitment has been poor - replacing White with Koch, also getting a Barca dud in Firpo, Rodrigo has been a flop up front, Struijk poor. Raphinha, however, was a great signing and - like Richarlison - sure to on the phone to his agent as I type.

Can we have them relegated by scoring an own goal in the 93rd minute, have the ref disallow it in the moment, only to then have it finally given following an abnormally lengthy VAR check? Or maybe have them score a relegation denying winner in the 95th minute only to have it disallowed after VAR.
