Before Bosman the clubs had everything in their favour.
Bobby Moore couldn’t get away from West Ham as late as the 70s, even though Derby were willing to pay him a fortune.
If they didn’t want to sell they didn’t sell. We were a selling club.

I’d hope we can discard Fulham & Terriers. Another 9 pts for us would reduce their magic numbers to 18 & 12. If we don’t get 9 more points we don’t deserve to stay up and if we do I can’t see them not dropping 18 & 12 respectively.
For the rest it’s a dog fight.

Definitely a yes from me. For all SD says the PL is our be all and end all he swapped things around and messed players about.
As one who was dead against our Europe adventure, we just didn’t have the squad. I wish he had played a complete second X1 for both legs against Aberdeen.

36 points should be enough with the number of clubs still in the mix.
If they aren’t playing the top6 they are playing each other. Loss of confidence, injuries or suspensions could be a major factor.
