I make that around 32 points, possibly enough in certain circumstances, but not guaranteed.

Did they do maths at your school Bill?

38 PL games / 4 = 9.5 * 3 = 28.5
11 draws 39.5 points

30 games left so 1 in 4 = 21 points + 8 we currently have = 29. Plus 6 more draws wouldn't be far from safety. 14 teams in the PL are scrapping to get these points by hook or by crook or as ugly as possible. 10 wins in a season (especially against the bottom sides) we see you stay in PL.

Isn't being in the PL such fun.

I said we played SOME good stuff, the games I mentioned were brilliant performances.

Preston at home was far from brilliant the game turned after Preston had a man sent off when they were 3.1 up. Spurs at home was a win in a dead rubber after we were already relegated. Glory days.

How I see it is you are using the drawn games twice:

38 minus 11 (drawn) leaves 27 11 draws = 11 points
27/4 equals 6.75 call it 7 wins =21 points

Total Points 32

Well if we ignore the games we won we are in trouble and i9f we ignore the games we lost we are fine.

Rather like investments and racehorses, past performance has little to do with what happens next, and that is what matters

Russell Grant and Mystic Meg have all the answers

What is clear is that we have five points start on the bottom three and all the teams below us will have message boards that are paranoid as us

That's called an opinion which you are more than entitled to, I personally thought the Preston game was brilliant, one of the best games of football I have ever watched, you may have thought it was rubbish, like I said, you are more than entitled to your opinion but I don't understand the desire to sit and argue against my opinion all the time.

Might be something to do with the relentlessly negative nature of the messages you post and your antagonistic manner perhaps?

"one win in four" means one win in every four games. In 38 games, that's nine and a half,not six and three quarters. 7 wins in 38 games is not one win in 4; it's not even 1 in 5.

One of the best? You moan about the football under Dyche and then cite a game in which we were bloody awful in until the last ten minutes!

In terms of entertainment, an absolute cracker of a game.

An exciting last ten minutes certainly far from a ‘brilliant performance’.

No team has been relegated from the Premier League after getting 11 wins in the season. 2 down and 9 to go then ;)
