I agree with this portion, not the rest (or the username, of course).
Tut Tut typical remoaner misquoting to make a point.

We must match Forest in the next 2 games if we do, we could be looking at the all time Greatest Escape.

But we also have to pick up 2 points on Luton over last 3 games

I think we probably need to pick up 4 points before we play Forest to have any real chance and that’s assuming they don’t get some of their deducted points back this week.
The upturn in form has been encouraging, but we may have left it a bit late and could have done with turning one of the recent draws into 3 points.

I think everyone is concentrating too much on Forrest. I can see Forrest going down but unfortunately we will also and Luton will stay up, courtesy of us beating Forrest.

I think we need to match Forests results up until the final game, which won’t happen. I think we’ve left it a bit too late.

It's fairly clear that we're going to need to get a win against Newcastle. That's obviously a tall order, but failure to collect all three points against "less potent" opposition such as Brighton, Wolves and Everton recently has meant that to keep things going we have to turn our up turn in form into actual wins. We have to assume Forest will probably beat Sheffield U or at least won't lose which means anything less than a win on Saturday sends us to Spurs needing something and that's even tougher. Another , hard fought, plucky draw on Saturday would likely mean curtains sadly.

Remember when West Brom survived on the final day of the season when Brian Robson was in charge nobody gave them a chance, come on Clarets re write the history book , it can be done. UTC..

The fact that both Newcastle and Tottenham still have plenty to play for means that we will probably fall short of getting the wins we need. Newcastle will be eyeing a top 6 finish and Tottenham will still believe that they can pip Aston Villa to the top 4 berth.

Latest odds (Implied chance of relegation, including margin)
Burnley 1/8 (89%)
Luton 1/5 (83%)
Forest 8/5 (38.5%)
Everton 50/1 (1.8%)
Suspect Forest get 2 points back, and also likely they beat Sheff Utd. And that, unfortunately, will be the end of that.
