dylanisabaddog 4,954 Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) One down at Wolves and Calvert-Lewin off injured. I'm no great fan but he appeared to be the reason they had picked up. If they lose this game it looks like they may need a result at home to Bournemouth next week. Squeaky bum time. Edited May 20, 2023 by dylanisabaddog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,669 Posted May 20, 2023 I’m keen for Leicester to get in the fight, but can’t really see them getting much out of Newcastle on Monday. It does look like it’ll go down to the last weekend though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're probably right but we've seen their manager play and he's definitely someone who likes to win. I rarely bet on football and I definitely wouldn't bet on that game Edited May 20, 2023 by dylanisabaddog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robert N. LiM 4,429 Posted May 20, 2023 I've got a vague memory of us playing a team who were on the beach on the last day of the season, when we only needed a win to survive... Fortunately I've managed to repress the result. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 320 Posted May 20, 2023 Love for Everton to get relegated but it looks current bottom three will go. Leicester will not get any more points unfortunately. If Leeds can win against Tottenham they might escape. Whatever this season points deduction next will sink them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulfotto 640 Posted May 20, 2023 Leicester would massively benefit from Villa beating Liverpool and Utd Bournemouth as it stands as it would mean Newcastle would be guaranteed Champions League football before Monday night. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No idea why you would love to see Everton relegated, but in any case...if Burnley, Sheff Utd and either Luton or Coventry are replaced by say, Southampton, Leicester and Everton in our division next season then it will make it even harder to get our team anywhere near top 6, never mind top 2...which was going to be hard as it was with the current state of our squad.

The Raptor 1,224 Posted May 20, 2023 I really hoped they'd go down this year. They've flattered to deceive for so many years. Sadly it's looking less likely now. 99th minute? Really.

Myra Hawtree 124 Posted May 20, 2023 What about that season maybe 35 years ago when Everton had won League and a long time after all games had been played they put out a weakened team and lost and we went down. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
