A draw for Everton and they are relegated .Leeds that is. Not true. If Everton draw, Leeds would finish above them with a 3 goal win. It would then come down to the Leicester result. If they failed to win, Leeds would stay up! π’ Yes, you are spot on , my small brain couldnβt accept a scenario of Leeds winning and also winning by 3, that would certainly be a nightmare .Think ( hope ) Everton will win.

Yeah, it would be a nightmare. We can take some comfort from the bookies odds though, Leeds are 1/33 (bet365) to go down. Surely they can't get out of it again.

In truth the permutations aren't all that complicated. 1. Leeds MUST win. Anything less & we can enjoy their funeral. Assuming that happens: 2. If EITHER Everton or Leicester win, Leeds are still goners. And if that doesn't happen, then: 3. If Everton draw & Leicester don't, Leeds need a win by at least 3 goals.
4. If Leicester draw & Everton lose, they are safe (in truth this might be the most likely of the scenarios that keep them up).
5. If both of them lose, they are twats of the highest order & I hope they go bust.
27 result permutations, most of which relegate Leeds. So please don't mention 2001

The way they were talking I actually thought they were already down until I saw the table after Leicester Newcastle The rection of Leeds fans is interesting & kind of typical really. Although most admit they are where they are because they are crap, there's still this lingering 'how on Earth did this happen to us', usually followed by a list of highly expensive players & coaches they need to get straight back up again. They still can't accept that they are a biggish Championship team but not even close in the Prem. All that 'Champions League in 3 years' shite when they went up. Obviously a typo.

I had the misfortune to be sat next to a Leeds fan on Sunday whilst on the train down to watch the Non League finals on Sunday. I had to listen to him whinge about how VAR don't like Leeds and that it's against them. He took the mick out of Fulham for building a bigger stand and charging 3k to sit in it when they can't sell out and that they should give it to Leeds because they would fill it. Over 2hrs of constant drivel from one of Pontefract's finest

Most are back within a few years.

Every single club is "where they belong". Whether they've been at that level for the entirety of their history or it's the first time they've ever been so high/low in the football pyramid.

Spurs are a basket case but I still fully expect Kane to get a brace at least.
Hopefully Everton come down with them - of the three clubs I think they are the most likely to struggle to find their feet in the Championship (like Villa in '16/17).

Obviously want Leeds to come down for obvious reasons, but it would be funny if Everton came down (although not at the expense of Leeds), listening to their whining fans about how they're too big for the championship etc would be good, well, teams get relegated because they're not good enough for the division above and not because of their history.

I can feel a hat trick coming on!

Was reading an article last night explaining how the development of bellend rd has been put on ice again πππ
60k min seats was the call for a couple of years.
Fingers crossed for Sunday
Fire sale followed by a relegation struggle please. Lose half their support as per usual. Sell the skip back to the council and spend another 20 years infighting. πππ

I half wish they'd done that just to laugh at 21k rattling round in a 70k stadium when half the fanbase has gone back to just buying their annual car sticker and nowt else.

Bournemouth are where they belong because someone saw the opportunity to invest in them and took them into the Premier League.

Bournemouth have come in for a lot of stick because they've been lucky enough to have rich backer (who actually keeps a low profile), anyone who dosnt like the idea of clubs like Bourenmouth and Brentford upsetting the applecart in the prem irrespective of any money spent...well its a shame, its always good when smaller unfashionable clubs who haven't done owt for years can have their dreams realised, give me Bournemouth over massive every single time.
