I'm starting to think that Sheffield United might not survive
They obviously look gone now, but I'm not sure who will join them in going down. Fulham look like a different team now and I can see them catching Newcastle. West Brom still look poor, but Big Sam could make a difference.
Sheff united are gone, west brom will probably go down but with Fulham getting it together, it will probably be Brighton.
I like potter but those are three with 'championship' squads, I'd be surprised if Newcastle get sucked in, unless Fulham have a few injuries that would be my bet, I don't think it will be that close come the end of the season.
It's the first time in a while where there are so few bad teams.
Newcastle have gone ten games without a win. Unless they turn it around soon they're going to get sucked in. They've got some tough games in February as well.
Haven't Newcastle been heavily hit by covid though? To be honest I haven't been paying any attention to them, they are a depressing team to watch these days, but if Callum Wilson stays fit, I think they'll be fine.
If Burnley beat Fulham midweek it's over.15 games to go and the bottom 3 are all 10 points or more off safety.
Allardyce is usually good for a couple of cheap January signings but with no purchases they all look as good as gone.
The one solace we can take is that there is no chance we’re getting relegated this year. Baby stepsSaw the thread title and thought ‘Christ are things that bad now we’re discussing relegation’
