Have you seen the teams in the bottom 3?If we need to hit 40 points to stay up then we're in big trouble.
That would mean we need another 6 wins , we've only won 7 games out of 22 attempts so asking for 6 wins out of 16 games seems beyond this manager.
49 with playoffsJust think, next year we could be playing 48 league games against Millwall, Stoke City and possibly Orient. There won't be any difficulty getting tickets and we will be watching a whole new team. Please God NO, NO, NO !!
We won't pick up more than 10 points between now and the end of the seasonThink we will need around 36 points to be sure, so four wins or three wins and a handful of draws?
If we are lucky we may have a bottom three as bad as last year where even 27 points (one win from now) was enough to stay up. As a rough guess I think 33 points will be enough this season.

I wouldn't be surprised if 30 was enough to stay up.
I can't remember the last time a team needed 40 points to finish 17th.
Leicester took a point of us. Ipswich humiliated us at our ground.Not much chance we get relegated, Ipswich and Leicester are poor and we have Romero and VDV back soon. Still an embarassing situation, Ange has not managed this squad well.
This.The two most important league fixtures we have now are Leicester and Ipswich.
Using the data from the last 10 league games (over quarter of a season), we are now projecting to finish on 32 points.
5 points from the last 10 league games. 0.5ppg
16 games left x 0.5ppg = 8 points
Current points 24
Final tally 32 points
And what with Ange and his "no point in changing in order to gain undeserved points - what does that teach you?", I'm not confident whatsoever that we will get any more than that.
Fortunately for us it seems 32 may well be enough to stay up this season. But it is an eye opener for sure.
Our recent form. Not are recent form.66/1 to go down ...seems very generous when you look at how shit are recent form has been
"I always win something in my second year"Our lowest ever PL points total is 44.
We are well on course to absolutely smash that![]()

Super computer is obviously in the cult of Postecoglu.From the BBC Blog:
Opta Supercomputer: Where will Tottenham finish?
Following Tottenham's 3-2 defeat by Everton, Opta's Supercomputer predicts their most likely finish to be 12th (17.8%), although they have similar percentage chances of finishing as high as 10th (11.1%) and as low as 15th (11%).
Spurs are currently 15th with 24 points from 22 Premier League games. They are eight points clear of the bottom three.
The Supercomputer gives them a 0.1% chance of relegation.

He's not even Champo level.Imagine Ange's tactics in the championship.
I'd be surprised if anyone at all was available to play by the end of about gameweek six.
