Soton and Forest

[londonranger]

Will join us for next season. Leeds could also be relegated. Everton have 3 goals at the Amex. This should keep them up

This is not correct. As of today Southampton Leeds and incredibly Leicester.

Still 3 games to go. Southampton are gone, just waiting on the inevitable. West Ham almost certainly safe at 7 points clean. No idea where that Everton win came from but they're still only 2 points above the drop zone, Who knows what big Sam can do at Leeds but it definitely ain't over yet. Leicester have the players to cause a couple of upsets.

Plenty can happen over the next few weeks, the large lady hasn't even arrived at the theatre yet.

Hopefully Forest will drop.
They have Chelsea away, Arsenal at home and Palace away but I think,Leicester look useless as do Leeds

Unless Leicester and Leeds can actually win a game Forest will survive.

For me I feel Southampton , Leicester and Leeds drop, Everton and Forest survive although love to see Trees drop.

I agree, Harr. I think the current bottom 3 are all now really in deep trouble.

Saints are definitely gone and Leicester have Liverpool and Newcastle up next so really can't see any points from those two games.

Leeds could get out of it, they have Newcastle and West Ham next so you would think they could get something out of those 2 games, especially the West Ham one.

I'd love Everton to go down but they look like they're going to be this generation's Wigan and survive multiple annual relegation battles.

I think Dyche will keep Everton up and I hoped Leicester could overtake Forest on goal difference on the last day of the season to send Forest down. But then I just read these comments on BBC from Leicester fans after losing to Fulham - sounds a bit like what QPR fans have been saying  so maybe they will do the impossible as we did.

"My man-of-the-match against Fulham? No one. Not one single player deserved it.
The only satisfying thing about this game was watching chairman Top sat at Craven Cottage having to suffer it as well, but then again it's on his watch we have sunk this low.
While Top stuck by Brendan Rodgers, the team was careering out of control and towards the edge of the cliff. Now we are hanging off it.
Tottenham gave their fans a refund for their performance at Newcastle. Might I suggest Top refunds the full cost of all the season tickets fans bought, because that is how long we have been bad - no - make that dreadful.
Not fit to wear the shirt, embarrassing, ashamed, awful... those are just the words I can repeat that fans used to describe this debacle.
I think the men's squad should watch a video of the women's team, who may have lost to Arsenal, but each and every one of them showed more fight in that game than any of the men on the pitch at Fulham.
What do players who are leaving or who are out of contract have to play for? Apparently nothing - and it shows."

George: The comment made that "we had no fight" has been evident since Christmas. The only ones to provide the fight are the players themselves. The performance was pathetic - the seriousness of the situation only dawning in the last 15 minutes. Too little too late! The only positive to take away is that the so called stars will not be at the club after the summer.

Stu: Utter garbage. No leaders on the pitch and no leadership off it. Unable to carry out the basics of defending or to pass the ball to our own side properly. This isn’t the fault of Dean Smith, but the whole mismanagement of the club from top to bottom. Relegation is now a certainty and with nine players out of contract this has been coming all season. A disgrace.

Andy: Maddison’s “not hungry enough” comments may sum up his fellow midfielders perfectly... more interested in their next club instead of the one which pays their wages.

John: This all started towards the end of last season and during the summer with Rodgers trying his best to get sacked and destabilise the dressing room. Letting Kasper [Schmeichel] go was a bizarre decision. Add in some very poor transfer activity and players like [Youri] Tielemans downing tools and you end up with the situation we are in.

Anita: There was no desire to win. No compassion. They have given up on everything we have achieved over the years. Saying sorry is not good enough any more. They need to play as we know they can. No matter who the manager is, these players have the ability to do so much better. Top is not to blame, the blame and responsibility lies at the players' door.

It does indeed sound all too familiar, doesn’t it!
