Well, the good news for Leeds is they now have their fate in their own hands. A tired West Ham and a free-falling Totenham represent a good chance for Leeds to stay up ...

Strangely, I think that our result today, although diminishing our faint CL hopes, may lead to Everton's relegation. Newcastle are CL-bound even if they lose both games by virtue of goal difference, barring uncharacteristic results. Leicester can win that game and jump over Everton on GD. Wouldn't that be something!...

If Leicester beat Newcastle, then at most we would need a 5-0 win at Soton, if Chelsea beat Newcastle :)

I watched a bit of West Ham vs. Leeds and the few moments it showed of Fat Sam chewing on his nettles made me quite happy if they go down and it further tarnishes his reputation.

Leicester have the worst fans in the league, in my opinion.

Everton are Everton.

Now that Forest have pulled away I'm very happy with whichever two of the other three go down.  Forest fans have a bit of the Leicester about them but the Hillsborough banner was a moment of class far beyond their East Mids neighbours.

The 4 teams are seperated by 2 things for me:

The manager decisions - Dyche hasn't exactly done amazing, but he's set them up well enough to get a few decent results. Cooper has stuck to what he knew and managed to get them into another run of form. Forest have basically had 3 spells in the season where they have picked up most of their points. A run of 5 or 6 games where they got a 2 or 3 wins and a draw or so. That's all their points. Outside of that it's lose lose lose draw lose lose etc. Smith and Gracia are laughable. Honestly, massive incompetence is the only reason those 2 would come into clubs in a relegation battle

Strikers - Calvert Lewin has been such a focal point recently, and they have still been shit. They got 6 points from 6 games he was available, but that looks like it will be enough. Awonyini has hit form at the exact right season and scored the goals that have got them safe. Bamford and Vardy are shit.

We already have shit in the country, and the game of Liverpool fills life with joy. Thanks

A 5 pound bet on Billy Hill for all 3 teams, Everton, Leeds, and Leicester to lose today will get you £206.77 back.

Thank me later.   :wave

Any 3 from Burnley, Luton, Sheffield United, Wolves, Forest and Everton. All really poor.

Can see Fulham and Palace struggling aswell.

Luton, Sheff Utd and Everton stick out from that list. Think Burnley will be alright and I reckon Forest will finish slightly higher this season, would be big if Awoniyi can score goals throughout the season and not just the back end. Fulham probably finish lower but don't think they're in too much trouble.

Wolves look nailed on to go down for me.

Can see Forest having a tough season, too.

Everton, Luton, and Wolves for me.

If Everton get chucked out of the league for their alleged financial breaches before the end of the coming season, I'd add Sheffield Utd in for those getting relegated...

Shouldn’t we wait until the transfer window slams shut? Who knows what hidden gems some of the obvious candidates may pull out of the hat.

Why can't it for once the transfer window close gently?! For once! All that slamming shut...  ;D
