For what it is worth, the bookies favour Sunderland, Boro, Hull and Swansea to go down (in that order). We are next, at around 3-1. Then it's a big jump to Watford who are around 12-1. Edited by peterg (30 Mar 2017 3.08pm)

Watford will now see the April fixtures vs Hull and Swansea as must wins . Double handy for us . Makes our win vs them a bit more valuable than just 3 points. Not lose games they have the points on the board.

Sunderland would have to have a fantastic finish to the season to stay up. They have been living on borrowed time for the last few seasons and I suspect that their time is up. I agree, I think they've pulled a miracle out the bag two seasons running, but it looks like too much of an ask this time round. Originally posted by topcat
I think the other two places will be from Palace, Middlesbrough, Hull, Swansea and Burnley. I think that's fair. It'll be down to how well these teams do in four games between now and the end of the season. Ideally for us, we'll repeat our surprise win against Southampton, get something against Leicester and Burnley, so as to not leave us reliant on beating Hull.

Edited by peterg (30 Mar 2017 3.08pm) Well, I got one prediction right. Bookies still have us fifth to go down but odds have lengthened to 7-1. Burnley are now next in line at around 10-1.

Boro have to get a win at Swansea or Hull, possibly both. If they are to win Hull would b good. The worry is that Hull still have to play Boro and Sunderland at home. Let's hope we can get something on Weds, another huge game. COYP !!

Hull also have to play Man City. A win on Wednesday can really catapult us into mid table.

Its a bit annoying that after winning four on the spin we still haven't put clear daylight between us and Hull. It was a shame that they nicked a win yesterday

If we get up near to them I reckon we will finish above them. They look in freefall and the manager has had the dreaded owner's message of support today, to supposedly stifle the speculation. Next game for them is the Arse at home, potentially above them on Weds.

We need to keep soldiering on. Its starts with Southampton on Wednesday night. We are three points of them. If we could get on to 34 points by Wednesday night, we are really starting to make some distant. Lets f**cking do it on Wednesday eve. I know Palace don't do things the 'easy' way but we could make some space in just a couple of days. To be honest, a quick glance of Swansea and Hull shows they have a much more favorable run in then us. Its too easy to count on them not winning, we still have to do the work until we are safe.

As mentioned before, our goal difference is also +18 on Swansea & + 22 on Hull, so, if it comes down to being level on points we have that advantage. Our position is certainly preferable to Swansea's & Hull's despite our run in.

, Spurs(H) and Burnley(H) within only 6 days could make it tougher, however. I long for the season's end, as the tension is painful!
