Topic: Predictions for bottom 3/relegation

[Terry de Niro]

From 12th to bottom getting very tight down there. Who's your 3 to get flushed?

[deano2727]

Forest, Bourenmouth, Southampton maybe. Wouldn't be surprised to see one of them stay up, but I reckon two of those will go down.

Added a poll, mate.

[UntouchableLuis]

Forest, Bournemouth and I think we really might see a shock like West Ham.

Everton just won't flush. If they don't this season they never will.

Leicester surely have too much.

[johnny74]

Has to be one of the hardest to call.

I think Leicester are in the most trouble. They don't seem to have any redeeming relegation escape qualities. Rodgers just hasn't got that in him to kick them up the backside.

Bournemouth are just too weak. Palace form has been so dreadful. West Ham are in a freefall with a Europa distraction.

Everton will be all right under Dyche. Southampton also I think will pull themselves out. Forest and Wolves maybe have enough.

Southampton, Bournemouth and Palace. Southern clearout.

[Ravishing Rick Dude]

Went for Crystal Palace, Everton and Wolves. Why? Because i want them to get relegated. But my head says Bournemouth, Southampton and probably not Everton.

[kavah]

Could be any of them couldn’t it. Tough call
I haven’t looked at the fixtures yet, before I vote.

[Iska]

Most fascinating situation in this league for about a decade, since the 2013/14 title race probably.  Can make a case for any of these going down.

Code: [Select]

12   C Palace      27 -13 27
13   Wolves        28 -19 27
14   Leeds        27 -9 26
15   Everton      28 -18 26
16   Nottm Forest 27 -27 26
17   Leicester    27 -9 25
18   West Ham      26 -10 24
19   Bournemouth  27 -29 24
20   Southampton  28 -23 23
Big spread in goal differences, which always tells you something, so Bournemouth, Southampton, Forest most likely.

But those three have a bit of spirit about them, which is absolutely crucial in a dogfight, whereas Leicester, West Ham and Palace have none.  It’s never going to be all three of them though.

Went for Southampton, Bournemouth and Leicester.

[Andy @ Allerton!]

Everton going to 100% jam their way out of it again

Southampton are gone. Bournmouth are gone. One other and I think that David Moyes is shite enough to doom West Ham

[Barneylfc∗]

I voted Bournemouth, Southampton and Everton.

It's just who is going to be marginally less shit than the other shit sides. All of them will still drop a lot of points. I thought Leicester and West Ham would've sorted themselves out by now, but it seems like they're in it for the duration.

[rocco]

Southampton, Bournemouth, Forest

[Billy The Kid]

Strange seeing West Ham in the thick of it, seeing as they challenged for a CL place in 2021, and challenged the red mancs for 6th last season.

Then again, they've been known to yo-yo like that in the past. I hope they don't go though as I actually don't mind them

My only real interest in this is seeing Everton pulled into it and hopefully flushed. Outside of that I'm not really arsed

[Crosby Nick]

Everyone saying Southampton, I know they’re still bottom but feels like they have shown a bit more signs of life since they sacked their manager. Don’t they have us on the final day at home too? That’s a Bradford 2000 scenario if ever there was one!

Just needs one freak result for sides to get a boost. Before yesterday I reckon most would have gone for Leeds, but a big win at a relegation rival and they seem much better placed.

I think Bournemouth are the worst side in the league. They’re the ones I’d put most money in going down. Rest is anyone’s guess but I think the bigger clubs (West Ham, Leicester, probably Everton) will get themselves out of it.
