The Plot To Escape Relegation Thread - 2016

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

8 points from the last 5 games= 1.6 points per game.
13 remaining games x 1.6 points = 20.8 points. (Say 21).
Total 37 points, probably enough to overtake Sunderland and Norwich.
If Newcastle take 13 points from their 13 games (a point per game which is slightly better than they have achieved so far) they finish on 37 points as well.
Our goal difference is presently -20, theirs is -18. That changes with our better results than them.

Conclusion:We are staying up as Newcastle are relegated on goal difference.
Simples.

If we beat the Dippers, I'll start to think it's possible. What would be typical Lerner Villa would be for us to agonisingly miss out on survival.

I'd say agonisingly missing out on relegation is more typical of Lerner Villa.

Of all the forecasts that have been given, I'd be surprised if anyone got more than 50% of their forecasts correct. All good fun but a waste of time.

I suppose injury returns could help.  Just checked Physio room and they have an anticipated return date for Adama of 5th March - could be vital?  Is that right about Kozak being out until May?!

He has fractured his ankle so I would guess so.
