I think Forest, they have the best coach and seem to have a lot of fight. Will need to win their final day match Vs PalaceWho will survive between Leicester Leeds and Forest?
Leicester seem in free-fall
Notts Forest 4- 3 Southampton. So close but so far for Southampton
Southampton 8 points from safety with only 24 points, certainties to go down with 3 games left. Their remaining matches - Fulham (H), Brighton (A) and Liverpool (H).
3 Remaining matches to see who else is relegated :
Notts Forest - (33 points, GD -31 ) - Chelsea (A), Woolwich (H), Palace (A)
Everton - (32 points, GD -21 ) - Mancity (H), Wolves (A), Bournemouth (H)
Leicester- (30 Points, GD - 15 ) - Liverpool (H), Newcastle (A), Wham (H)
Leeds - (30 points, GD - 25 ) - Newcastle (H), Wham (A), Spurs (H)
Leeds and Leicester look most at risk. Leicester's best hope of survival might be their GD
Leicester have been a disaster all season and have been getting worse as the season progresses. They went from being a well run club to being a shit show in only a few years.Who will survive between Leicester Leeds and Forest?

It's still mathematically possible for West Ham to go down, which is nice.
Would be great if they could get a farewell win on the last day.
* Insert Jim Carrey there's a chance gif"and possibly in their own hands if they lose to both Leeds and Leicester !
I assume you mean the last 2 matches of the season ?

Everton would seem to have the best chance to escape given their schedule, but after jumping out of the jaws of relegation at the last moment a year ago, how many times can they do this?

Their recruitment 21/22 didn’t work out. I believe that they’ve had turnover in their recruiting department and a bit of a power struggle. The club’s finances have been in bad shape. King Power wrote off over 100m in debt (this past year, I believe) and the new owners don’t have the same stomach for accruing debt so they can be feted by Leicester fans as their Dad did.
We talk (almost endlessly) about football finance and Tottenham’s in particular. The moral of this lesson is you might not be guaranteed on-field success if you get the finances right but you’re guaranteed failure if you get it wrong.
