Who's going down from the Prem?

Looking at the fixtures I wouldn't be surprised if Leeds don't get another point ( wishful thinking?) & Everton may struggle to get more than a couple so it's those two along with Southampton for me.
 
Southampton have gone, they just don't know it yet.

Think Everton will escape as Bournemouth will probably be on the beach for the last match. However, if Leicester beat Everton this weekend, all bets are off.

If Leeds beat Bournemouth then I think they'll be ok and Forest go down. If not, then it's a coin toss between Leeds and Forest. Leeds could collapse.
 
not so sure everton beating bormuff is the given most seem to think it is. our away record (and form) is good, and we're the sort of team that might be a nightmare for the toffees last day - we play best when teams are having a go. will be a nasty atmosphere there should everton fail.
 
After watching Everton last night i am more certain they will go down. I really hope Leicester beat them on Monday.

Leeds have a tough run in and Forest after a good win midweek could pick up enough points in those remaining fixtures.

Im going to go for

Leeds
Everton
Southampton
 
Leeds
Everton
Southampton

Agreed that Leeds could fail to get another point if they lose this weekend, Everton similarly need to win this weekend to have a shot. Southampton are gone and may be down for a while.

Everton deserve relegation. They’ve been awful for a few years and somehow scrape out of it at the last minute. It would cause a meltdown at the club with new ground, big debts, ffp already raising its head etc

You can also throw the distrust that the fans have with the directors and owners into the mix and how none of them have attended games for months after being threatened by the supporters.

I'm also not sure that Everton fans are up for another relegation battle after they deserted them in their droves last night. Even Sunderland don't empty a stadium that quickly.
 
I've been saying to my mates for a few weeks I reckon Leeds will get sucked into this.
I think Saints have gone which will cue a scramble for Ward-Prowse. I think Everton will go and I think Leeds with them.
I really did hope West Ham would go but moyes seems to have been able to dig them out (again)
 
Everton, Southampton and Leeds.

I think Everton don't have the firepower to stay up, Leeds are too erratic and Southampton are already down. Not statistically but I can't see them clawing back six points.

Exactly. Everton had mainly been pretty comfortable in the Premier League.

They’ve struggled this season and the last but apart from that it’s necessary to go back to 1994 or 1995. They survived on the last day of the season I seem to remember. Barry Horne scoring the goal that kept them up.

I think Horne got the equaliser. Graham Stuart definitely got the late winner.
 
Yes, I don't get the claim that Everton are perennial survivors.

14 top half finishes in the last 20 seasons, including 4 in the last 6.
They've only been in real relegation danger twice in that time: 03/04 and last season. Apart from those 2 seasons, their lowest finish has been 12th in those 20 years.

It would be interesting to see them go down though and it looks increasingly likely.
 
Southampton needed a result last night there as good as gone.

I think Leicester will beat Everton on Monday night a big 3pts at stake
I think Forrest will beat Southampton another big game for Forrest
Looking at the remaining games it looks hard for both Leeds and Everton to get enough points .

My bottom 3

Leeds Utd
Everton
Southampton
 
At this moment, Southampton look nailed on to drop and my guess for the teams joining them would be Leeds and Everton. If Leeds win on Sunday that will change of course but I fancy that it is likely a draw at best which given the dirties following fixtures could really put them in the poop.

Shame :cool:
