Our silicon-based friend Opta has these probabilities as the match week is about to begin:

Leeds 7.34%
Spurs 16.57%
Forest 29.29%
Spam 47.43%

Spam earning a point vs. Citeh makes only the smallest of differences:

Leeds 7.62%
Spurs 16.53%
Forest 29.60%
Spam 46.52%

All eyes on Forest's home tie with Fulham tomorrow.

Up to the moment:

Leeds 6.17%
Spurs 14.90%
Forest 34.05%
Spam 45.26%

Despite the fact that all relegation candidates were level this weekend, we see the first real decrease in our chances for some time.

Forest's chance of relegation have steadily been increasing for weeks. I think I'd put my marker on them to go down as of this moment.
 
A win would be great, but don't lose against Forest, at least, and then we have the international break and Bergvall, Bentancur and Kudus on their way back and we're good to go.

Still got to play Leeds as well.

Forest struggling to score at the moment and we're at home, coming off of that result today.

Feeling much more optimistic.

Lets' fucking go!!
 
Wow. We need someone to step up and show heart and Richarlison was him today. He just wouldn't give up and got his goal at the end.

A huge goal. Not only does it gain us a point but it feels like a seismic momentum shift. It's all for nothing if we go and lose at home to Forest next week, but now we go into that game with momentum.

Look at the team we had out today. Look at the players who came off the bench. Yet somehow we dug deep and got a draw at Anflied. That was character. Character we haven't shown all season. And it's going to take character for us to stay up and we've finally seen some of it.

Fair play to every player on the pitch today. They showed up and they gave 100%. Some of them aren't good enough, some of them were poor today, but they all showed up and fought. That's all I can ask for atm.

The less said about the unavailable players the better 🐀 some of them foolishly suspended, some of them out with knocks or illness, and obviously no dig at the long term injuries. The big question is will them players show the same fight when they return. Does romero and vdv show the same character next week or do they look disinterested? Can Gallagher show the same fight as Gray did today? That's the big question. We know we have some very talented players coming back, but today we showed more fight without them then we have all season! Let's see how they respond now.

Romero and VDV have been disgraceful leaders throughout this period and both can't wait to be gone in the summer. Let's see if they show the same passion next week. Both were fantastic in the Europa League last year and won us that competition, but do they have the same desire to keep us in the Premier league? All the evidence so far shows that maybe we are better off playing without them and actually fighting together as a team!
 
Getting a point today could really be a turning point. The fans and players alike really needed that full time scene.

The players have been so separated from the humans who support them, I am really hoping seeing the joy on the faces of those brilliant away supporters will bring everyone together a bit.
 
Beat forest and Leeds at home. Grab a point away to Sunderland, wolves, or home to Brighton and that should do it.
Worst case if we managed that would probably just be needing one more point from Chelsea or Everton

Makes me wonder if you don't even play Romero and VDV for forest. Theyre both so eager to do something stupid
 
You put your best players out for Forest certainly. The change of formation has definitely helped. We play compact and get ourselves together.

We had chances today despite the lack of quality in the attacking players. Richy included, I don’t rate him as a player but in these moments he seems to run on indignation and can sometimes offer a spark. He was good enough today as all the other outfield players were

I thought it was much better in all respects.
 
Invaluable point today, but Pool so poor when one up, hope this doesn't cloud the thoughts of removing Tudor. If we can get a few more back in the squad and a manager to organise them properly then we have the ability to stay up, on the other hand we have a clueless board and a clueless manager who will both likely do everything to get in the way of survival.
 
38 is the likely number from Opta right now.

West Ham still strong favourites to go down @ 47.1%. Then Forest on 28.5%. Followed by us on ( a now reduced ) 14.1%. Leeds safest on 7% with Wolves & Burnley still to play.
West Ham look the best team at the moment . Computers cannot see how a team is playing .
I have no doubt the computer said Wolves would lose to both Woolwich and Liverpool but they got 4 points.
And also that we would get bashed today.
