We definitely can't just rely on other teams losing. No team has ever
survived in the 20 team PL with our current points total of 30. 18th place
has been occupied by teams with totals from 30 to 42 points (the 42 pointer
being us, IIRC) so we need to scramble some points from somewhere. Our
decline seems to date from Sam replacing the assistant manager. It has been
pure relegation results from then on. I wouldn't be too surprised if we
didn't survive.
