Safety does not look assured to me 16:59 - Mar 23 with 27608 views | Jacandme | There seems a concerning sigh of relief has been breathed around the club, but looking at the table I am not as convinced as everybody seems to be. I hope we are not relaxing too soon. Newcastle and Sunderland have a game in hand over us. they win it and they are 7/8pts behind with 7 to play. we have Leicester away, West Ham away, Man City home, Liverpool home, Chelsea home, Stoke away and Newcastle away. we will be underdogs for every single one of those games. Someone convince me I should be as relaxed as others... | | | | |

Safety does not look assured to me on 21:27 - Mar 23 with 1999 views | Phil_S | I do and that clearly bugs you for some reason And your logic is flawed if the players said publically they were safe I would be worried as that would suggest complacency And I still know | | | |

Safety does not look assured to me on 21:31 - Mar 23 with 1996 views | dgt73 | Exactly and that's why no player would come out and say such a thing - they'd be accused of complacency- privately they may think differently and I can guarantee you don't know what the players think privately. It certainly doesn't bug me as I've said its only a game. | |

Safety does not look assured to me on 21:41 - Mar 23 with 1967 views | Jack11 | Our average points per game of 1.16 can be quartered for the remaining games and we'll be safe - that's why I'm relaxed. Do the maths for the teams in 18th and 19th. Their current average points per game needs to at least double to overtake us. Both of them achieving that is unrealistic - combine that eventuality with palace and Norwich going on a similar run as well....not going to happen. Chill out and enjoy the rest of the season ðŸ‘🻠[Post edited 23 Mar 2016 21:42]

Safety does not look assured to me on 21:54 - Mar 23 with 1937 views | dameedna | About 6 weeks back I had us down to be relegated with Sunderland and Newcastle. We picked up points against Watford and Arsenal which were unexpected. I can't see us winning another game with the exception of Newcastle. If we only pick up 3 points that will do. But we picked up a surprise 6 points so I guess from the remaining games we will get another 6 points. The recent results and new management looks like they will get us there. We can wish for as much as we want but if we do the same next season I will be relieved but we will push more more. As for strengthening, the wba holding midfielder has had a good season but they look safe even after losing to Norwich. | | | |
Safety does not look assured to me on 22:07 - Mar 23 with 1906 views | karnataka | An interesting spin off to the possibility of Norwich going on a run is that it may actually benefit the Swans because they may well have beaten Newcastle, CPalace, Sunderland and Watford as these are Norwich's next 4 opponents. | | | |
Safety does not look assured to me on 22:22 - Mar 23 with 1880 views | jasper_T | We'll be in the top half in no time. | | | |
Safety does not look assured to me on 22:23 - Mar 23 with 1879 views | WarwickHunt | Yes, but what if Norwich, Palace , Sunderland and Newcastle all get three points each when they play each other, eh? Eh? What? Down with the Villa, we're going down with the Villa. Or something. | | | |
Safety does not look assured to me on 01:27 - Mar 24 with 1775 views | Wanderer | Go back to December Palace were top half and looking okay, what the dickens has happened to them?, it's the old saying 'down with the decorations after Xmas" really bad spiralling form. | | | |
Safety does not look assured to me on 01:36 - Mar 24 with 1766 views | Starsky | I don't think that We're the underdogs when we play Newcastle. No way. Crystal Palace.... Now they should be worried. | |

Safety does not look assured to me on 02:46 - Mar 24 with 1739 views | SwansNZ | Whilst not 100% guaranteed, there is very little chance of us being relegated. Mathematically we could, the same as Stoke could mathematically win the title — in reality, neither will happen. | |

Safety does not look assured to me on 06:54 - Mar 24 with 1682 views | jack247 | People quote Leicester as if it somehow means Sunderland, Newcastle and Norwich will turn into Bayern Munich and we will lose every game. People win the lottery. We still aren't got down. | | | |
