Berkshire Red Posted February 13, 2021 Report Share Posted February 13, 2021 This forum is so dramatic! Feel free to quote me at the end of the season but there is zero chance we get relegated this season. 46 games in the season. We have so far picked up 39 points from 29 games playing poor football. Including cup form, in 2021 we have 4 wins from 10 games and 2 wins from 7 games in the league (6 points from 7) We need 8 or 9 points from our last 17 games to be safe.

Get what you’re saying but honestly don’t know at the moment where those 8 or 9 points are coming from , at this rate we will be lucky to get 1 from Wycombe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were battered by Huddersfield at AG and very lucky to win. I don’t think that we can be that optimistic about getting any points from any particular games at the moment, we are that bad, and confidence is rock bottom.

Bet365 had us at 200/1 for relegation after the Huddersfield match and we’re now down to 16/1. Yes we’ve got a bit of a cushion but I’m worried about the prospect of being dragged into a relegation scrap with 5 games to go. We’re clearly not going to pick up many more points this season playing so dogshit every match so we’re relying on two of Birmingham, Weds, Rotherham or Coventry being more dross than us for the remaining 17 games.

Sheff Weds currently; 28pts from 28games and in relegation spot Rotherham 29pts from 27games Coventry 31pts from 29games Derby 31pts from 28games We have 39pts from 29 games, those not already on 31pts could get to 31pts with there games in hand; that is only 3wins away from overtaking us, which means they could be right up our asses if we dont pick up some points very soon. Our form must be the worst in the div atm where is the light at the end of the tunnel? anyone see it? cant see us beating an egg atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason the odds have dropped is because fans react to recent events and people will see our current form and the 200/1 odds and fancy a flutter. Odds reflect the current betting market, not the bookies knowledge really. Anyone taking 16/1 is likely to be the type of person to take a wonga loan! We play Millwall, Wycombe, Sheffield Wednesday, Rotherham, Coventry, Barnsley, QPR, Luton still this season. All of whom have failed to accumulate as many points as City this season. One of the higher placed teams if these we thrashed 3 weeks ago. We may be on a 4 game losing streak in the league, but remind me the last time a team lost 21 league games in a row?

Harry Posted February 14, 2021 Report Share Posted February 14, 2021 We won’t get relegated. But it’s a sad fact that’s it’s actually a possibility. I think we’ll end up 16th, probably 7 or 8 points clear of the drop. Not good. I don’t fear relegation this season, I fear the rot has long since set in and next season will be the real struggle. * * unless we change course. Edit - it feels so much like the 12/13 relegation. Old players, high wages, no leadership, poor recruitment. History repeating. 2nd edit. Prior to relegation in 13, the spiral had begun 3 seasons earlier. 10th, 15th, 20th, then down. This time, we’re getting worse. 8th, 11th. Probably 16th this season. Next year?????........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted February 14, 2021 Report Share Posted February 14, 2021 For those who feel that relegation is an impossibility, here's a sobering thought. Approximately one third of City's points this season have come from the first 4 matches. As we've not played 29 matches, that's a pretty damning statistic.
