Will Spurs still be in the bottom three come the end of this weekend's fixtures?

Forest v Aston Villa
Sunderland v Spurs
Manure v Leeds United

Probably.
Can't believe bookies have this 6/4 the pair.
Sunderland are great value.

Hopefully, though they can beat Sunderland..

Have a horrible feeling that both spurs and forest will win and we will lose putting us perilously close to the drop zone. I'm pretty crap at match predictions so hopefully I'll be totally wrong.

Spurs are now favs to fill the third relegation spot,and we rather surprisingly have been clipped to 9to2 from 6to1.Maybe because of the injury situation.

Unsure, hopefully Spurs will continue to struggle.

Massive game for them tomorrow.

Over the last 6 fixtures we've gathered 4 points Leon, only Spurs have a worse points tally.

We really need to hope that they keep failing to pick up points, and that we get our act together.

West Ham have picked up momentum in the league and Forest seem to have gained confidence in Europe.

Hopefully that Cup win will inspire us to win matches and gain safety, but this is looking like a very tight run in, unless Spurs continue to capitulate.

I voted yes, I think Sunderland will get at least a draw.

At least I hope so!

Only Spurs are worse than us over the last 6... it's the wrong time to get weak and bury our heads hoping we "get away with it" because someone else is worse.. The teams that grab the chance will survive, really hope we're one of them..

Me too, it's still very doable, but that recent run has pulled us back into the mire and by default given these other teams some hope.

And not scoring a PL goal in nearly 7 hours of play may also have something to do with it....

We need to start scoring goals again to do that. Otherwise we could conceivably not win another game this season.

Where are the goals going to come from? It's been a concern of mine since the 'book end' game against Citeh. We are in big trouble I fear.
Spurs will survive....I voted no.
Also, I think we've been given a bad hand this week playing on the Monday after everyone else. Ruddy SKY

And yet during our 7 hour long barren scoring period in the EPL we've managed to score 5 goals in 3 hours of FA Cup action

I wonder why that is?

Lack of pressure....maybe?

Maybe Swannie.

Bound to help that we have some attackers on the pitch, rather than just sitting watching the defenders every week

I am increasingly worried.
I'm concerned Spurs get a new manager bounnce (they now do have a manager who could turn them around). West Ham are clearly getting better under their new manager.

We have to win at least 3 of our remaining games.

I really want to be safe when we travel back to West Ham on the final day.

Not sure Swannie. I guess picking Gruev ahead of Tanaka wont help - particularly in home games.

Trouble is, even if we finally manage to start scoring again there's a strong possibility that we wont be able to defend a lead. Yet we badly need some wins on the board between now and the end of the season.

And I know that DCL hasn't had much in the way of service recently, however what recent chances he has had in the PL ( including a penalty ) he has fluffed. And I have zero faith in Okafor. So the inspiration needs to come from Tanaka, Gnonto and now with Stach out, even from Longstaff. James is always injured - get rid in the summer. Longstaff is far more likely to score a goal or two than Gruev.

I said weeks ago that West Ham will finish ahead of us - they can score goals, whilst we can barely manage that.

It's between us, Forest and Spurs I would say.

Or lose another game.

Depends how empty your glass is.
