markjazzbassist Posted January 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 lot of votes for the current bottom 3, can't fault that since they all do look like shite and their managers aren't really inspiring either (bar maybe silva).

MikeO Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 little past halfway, who's going down? Boro Swansea Hull I think moyes and fat sam will pull it out and stay up. You've tagged this onto the 15/16 relegation discussion Mark, got suspicious when I went back to see who I'd predicted and it was Watford, Norwich and Villa . markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 There are so many sides still in trouble, it seems closer than normal. Sunderland and Hull would be the most likely candidates, unsure about the 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted February 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 Big wins for hull and Sunderland. I can see that win helping moyes get his side back on track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 It's definitely game on at the bottom now. They are all picking up points. Apart from Chelsea winning the league at a canter, it should be an exciting end to the season at the bottom and for the top 4 and EL places.

MikeO Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 At this point, in beginning to think Leicester really will go down. Has that ever happened before: champions then relegation? Just the once, Man City champs in 36/37 and relegated the next season, amazingly when they went down they scored more goals than any other team in the league (and West Brom who went down with them were only outscored by the champions, Arsenal and a certain team in blue)! Not a stat Leicester likely to duplicate. http://www.footballsite.co.uk/Statistics/LeagueTables/Season1937-38/Div11937-38.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the note that a game was abandoned due to fog and the keeper didn't realize for ten or so minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the note that a game was abandoned due to fog and the keeper didn't realize for ten or so minutes. The other thing that's striking is that there was only an eighteen point difference between top and bottom (only two points for a win back then obviously) so the league was really competitive and nobody knew at the start of the season who was likely to win, no "big six" or whatever; last year there was a sixty-four point differential and it's probably been, without checking, similar for many years now. Would be much more interesting if teams were more evenly matched today rather than money counting for so much. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markjazzbassist Posted April 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 little past halfway, who's going down? Boro Swansea Hull I think moyes and fat sam will pull it out and stay up. looking to be correct on fat sam, not so much on moyes. still 2 of 3 isn't bad. i think hull will stay up. i think the current bottom 3 are going down (swans, boro, sunderland) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 This is finally the year the Sunderland will go down -- a bit like Wigan in that they've managed to overstay their welcome in the PL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palfy Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 Don't ask me. Early February I went for Leicester, Palace, and Hull, I'd still like to see Palace go down but that's more out of a dislike for Fat Sam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted April 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2017 Hull won with 10 men, beat watford 2-0. Swans also won but trail by 2 points. Silva should be manager of the year if they stay up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
