Bournemouth, Southampton looking doomed.  That’s two gone.
One from Everton, Leeds, West Ham, Forrest, Leicester. 

hopefully not one of the midlands clubs but West Ham and Leeds squads are pretty strong so the camaraderie in the squad - and Dyche - could be the difference.

Someone having a laugh bumping this.

We need two wins and a couple of draws to stay up. We managed 10 points just last month.

Reminds me of the panic end of last season when I think we were actually safe after beating Leeds in early March.

Let's be ambitious for once and aim to get past 50 points as then we're not far off the 20/21 haul.

Forest I think (and hope). Any promoted club that gives the likes of Lingard and Shelvey big contracts deserves to go down.

Man City will win the league and are the only team I don't think we can beat. Arsenal were terrible against Everton and if I were an Everton supporter I wouldn't get too excited. I still think they will struggle after the new manager bounce disappears.

Ah, yes.
I brought it up in the current discussion for the teams I believe will be relegated.
I don't believe Villa are in danger, but others may.
Emery also stated in his Prem match versus Leicester that Premier League safety is the top priority and that teams at the bottom are trying to win games to be safe.

Again it's being brought into consciousness can either join the debate and give own views or just not get involved. The negativity uncalled for.

We are one point behind Liverpool. I wonder if they have a relegation watch thread?

I think I interpret it differently and that despite it being a H and Villa forum, it's a thread about watching relegation. To some may include being weary or aware of how safe we are or are not and to others unnecessary.

I see it as who is going to be relegated at this moment Southampton Bournemouth and if a team loses today between Forest and Leeds.

Want do others think on who will actually drop?
I read about Palace here as an option, which is interesting.

For me, Leeds' defence and forest away form, as well as the level of some of their players, would point at one of them to go down.

I think Cooper is an excellent manager, and Marsh has his merits, but perhaps not the overall temperament to stay up as last year Leeds went close to going down. Certainly, don't mind if they do.

There's a 'who's going down thread' in Other Football, where it belongs.

Must be a relegation thread in other football to contribute to?

I'd be concerned if we get to March international break and we haven't won a game.
