The problem with that is, you can do all the permutations that on paper looks favourable to us, but the reality is West Ham beating Leeds and us losing to Everton, is very possible. Much more possible than that picture you posted makes it look. Especially when you take into account our woeful home form.

We were a world class save away from losing last week to Leeds at home.

It is I would say 25% is about our chance of going down not the OPTA 14% but it’s still a better position for us than West Ham.
 


And that's why my view with a single game to go is that if we now go down, we deserve to.

No complications here.

The only issue is the approach DeZerbi transmits to the players, and of course their ability to see it through.

Does he risk starting Maddison or have a set time when he will bring him on? I think I would be inclined to start him in the hope he can inspire us into a lead, and then once he tires his job is done. Waiting to see if he brings Maddison on if we are losing, feels counter-intuituve.
 
And yet there are SOME Judas CUNTS on here HOPING we go down cos THEY PUT A FUCKIN BET ON IT HAPPENING!

You ok mate?

Seriously, whatever I do shouldn't be causing you this much anger. Put me on ignore mate, go out and touch some grass or play a game of just the tip with your partner or whatever it is that brings you a bit of joy.
Don't get this pissed off at people you don't know and will never meet.
 
PP offering 9/2 for us to get relegated. The only way that can (realistically ) happen is Everton & West Ham both win. If you do a double on those 2 results it's 5.97/1 to significantly better odds than a straight relegation bet.

I have lumped on a fair few quid on it because I would gladly pay that money for us to stay up and if we don't I'm on holidays in 2 weeks and the winnings will cover a number of nights out where I will badly need alcohol.
Fucking drown on all the ALCOHOL if you "win"...
seriously, if THAT'S the reason you're doing this, then you have a bigger problem than I had a year ago...
Spurs stay up vs. Alcohol.... If that's more important, then go fuck yourself!
No amount of booze will soften the pain if we go down... But if it works for you, then go drown yourself in it!

Omg1111111116627727#getalife be careful man 1882 1882 is still about.
Yeah, good one!

At least we know where your priorities lie!

I tried to settle this one down with you mate but you're so far gone the other side there's no point.

Take my advice in my last post to you, don't get this wound up by people on here mate it ain't good for you. Going to put you on ignore now mate so no point replying to this.
Look after yourself mate
 
My concern is we've had 2 opportunities to put this to bed and failed. I'm not sure we have it in us, equally i'm not sure they do either. But we're really entering into the unknown where a mistake or a sending off sees us down.
I still think Leeds will roll over for Spam
When they played us, it was like their fucking life depends on it
Don't fucking trust them
So we know what we need to do
If we lose we deserve the Championship
 
when this poll was started we where about 9-10 points above the drop but our form and football under Frank was horrific plus our injuries. It was easy to see where we where heading and it’s why I voted No that we would go down.

Where we are isn’t a shock and would not have been even back in December. I am one of the most pessimistic fans going and yet we have a chance. It’s going to be fucking horrible worse than any cup final to watch but we can’t just think it’s done.

Patronising cunt! Who bets on their own team to LOSE if they're not just as bad as the rest who don't give a fuck!

You've been here a YEAR... THE FUCK do you know, other than betting on Spurs to lose?

But you've put me on ignore, so I can say the fuck I want... Ignore what you don't wanna hear... Fine. Hide you coward!

You either joined a year ago cos we WON something, and you're a glory boy, ok fine, I get it....

OR you're here to wind us up with shit like hoping we go down to win a few quid... How low can you go?

Good luck with your life.... Hope you enjoyed the glory days, cos they're over!

But that's fine, cos you're gonna make a shed load of cash for betting against your OWN TEAM!

... It's like undertaking in the hard shoulder... We can all DO IT... but only if we're cunts!
 
True but West Ham have also had chances to put it to bed and didn’t. It’s two shit teams.

Not 2 sh!t teams but 2 teamd who have been the epitome of poor to mediocre all season long.

But yes, everything that applies to us applies equally to West Ham.

For us I think it's a question of scoring first and then knowing Everton would have to score twice. Even better to be 2,up at any point.

I hope Solanke is back as his hold up play will be useful and Maddison can do 30 mins at least. Need to find a way to not have to use Kolo Mauni.

Thanks for that... Very patronising of you... Just Like a Gooner would say...

Hopefully you DON'T get to enjoy your WINNINGS on Sunday!
Hypocrite!
 
Chelsea away sadly it’s like some curse for us. I was hopefully we could do something but the curse is to strong.

So similar to us and City, under Guardiola. It's just freakish. Different managers, different players but often if not always as is the case with us and City, some weird freaking machinery.

Everton,over the years,more favourable, and much as the filth aren't in a great place,thry have in 2 or 3 players, what we just don't have at the present time.
 
The tension watching it on Sunday is going to be unbearable

Hope the players have the balls to deal with it

Always try to stay positive but Sunday has an ominous dark feeling about it

God , I hope I'm wrong
I have a really bad feeling that Spam will go up on Leeds and the news will spread through the stadium. Could make for a really terrible atmosphere that will absolutely rub off on the players.
 
I hate this club at times. Ive tried really hard to distance myself this season. Its like some weird abusive relationship though where you can't help but go back. I kept telling everyone I spoke with over the last week that there was zero chance of us getting anything last night. But a little part of me had this faint hope we might just manage a point so I put myself through it and watched it. Ive said for months now that we would get nothing from the last two fixtures. Chelsea because its Chelsea and Everton because I just dont think this bunch of players have the minerals in such a high stakes game. We will play ok in the main on Sunday I expect but struggle to score and just crumble and give sloppy goals away like last night. If I sit down and watch anything on sunday it will be the west ham game I think because I just cant let Spurs do it to me. I honestly cant believe we are in this situation its genuinely really depressing. Fair play to the fans who were there last night and have put up with this all season. I honestly just dont know how you do it. The club and this bunch of players dont deserve you.
 
Mate, I'm not the bad guy here... put a fucking bet on... See if I care...
Enjoy your winnings...

But don't you DARE come on here pretending you're a Spurs fan, when all you really care about is potentially profiting off your FELLOW SPURS fans misery!

That's what Levy was hounded out for!

SERIOUSLY MATE fuck off to your Gooner parade!

I don't bet on Spurs losing NOT cos I don't think it will happen, but I don't wanna profit on my own misery... That's fucking SICK mentality...

You sure you're not a schizophrenic sadist, with a deep seted penchant to punish yourself?

I HATE people that bet against Spurs, same as half as half scarfers...
They don't REALLY care about the club they claim to support.... Or why else would they do it?

MONEY that's why ... Just a Teemu bargain bucket version of why our CUNT board do it!!

Money money money money.... Betting has corrupted football... We all know it, and now YOU'RE PART OF IT?
.just fuck off ... You've killed football with your betting shit, go piss on our grave while you're at it!
You drip in insincerity to be honest and it reads like you have anger management issues so maybe deal with that before talking about others potential drink issues Dr fucktard.

Imagine a gormless, wotless, pea brain like yourself making accusations of others being Gooner fans. If you can't comprehend why someone would feel the need to bet against their team in an attempt to soften the blow then that's on you but many do it. Gooner fan? did you read my post before where i state i live in Islington and i've paid out for my family (which includes two young kids) to fucking leave islington this weekend specifically because i can't bring myself to look at a Gooner shirt. My heart fucking beats double the rate when we play to the point that my mum actually told me "this team will kill you" with genuine fucking fear you know it all helmet.

The fact that you stooped so low to have a dig at a posters drink habits and also told me i have issues with "self hatred" tells me all i need to know about you as a human being tbh.
