All in all it's been a great season so far. Yes, we still need a world class striker but who doesn't. The manager's age. Bentekes lack of goals, talk of getting a grafter manager and not a top flight one, promotion of youth? - are all good debating topics, But a little devil on my shoulder is still saying we are not mathematically safe ,,,,

Not mathematically - we still need 1 point or for Villa and Bournemouth to drop another. If they both won their last 5 (very unlikely but remember Oldham in 92 or 93 I think) and we lost our lost 4 we'd all be on 42.

it's not just about Villa and Bournemouth. include both West Ham and Watford. Why? because of the following fixtures where both teams CAN'T get maximum points: West Ham v Watford (17 Jul) Also (and I well remember Oldham) Can't see the bottom clubs getting maximum points with the following clutch of fixtures: Bournemouth v Spurs Bournemouth v Leicester (12 Jul) Bear in mind also that in their last 6 games (18 between them), Watford, Villa and Bournemouth have managed a solitary victory (Watford's over Norwich last night) and four draws. In short YES we ARE safe.

Mathematically no. And remember we are the only team in the history of the premier league to be relegated who were not in the bottom 3 at the start of the last game of season.

Sorry, but what don't you understand about the term 'mathematically'? We won't go down - but mathematically we could.

If West Ham drop points against Burnley tonight then we're mathematically safe. Realistically, we were safe after beating Bournemouth 2-0.

Anyone who has 34 points or more is safe. None of the bottom 3 are picking up points, it could be the lowest number of points required for a long time. The lowest points tally required was 31 in 2009/10, when Burnley were 18th with 30 points.
