On Tuesday, we asked for your thoughts on West Bromwich Albion's chances of Championship survival.
The Baggies are two points clear of the drop zone with four games to play, including a home game against promotion-chasing Ipswich and a trip to already relegated Sheffield Wednesday on the final day.
However, there are fears of a points deduction after the club were charged with breaching the EFL’s profit and sustainability rules (PSR) – a sanction which would be imposed this season should Albion be found guilty.
Chris: I still have complete faith that, under Morrison, Albion will finish above the relegation zone. Though, whether a subsequent points deduction changes that, remains to be seen.
Kevin: Our issue is a lack of goals. I’m hopeful that we can get a win at home against Watford but away at Preston and Sheffield Wednesday are more likely to be draws. Ipswich at home is harder to predict and it depends on whether they still need points. I think 5 points is realistic. If we finish on 51 that could be enough but if we then have points deducted we will be in trouble.
George: Seven games unbeaten and yet only 2 points above the drop. I felt worried before the announcements about PSR but seeing the fact we will likely get a 2 or 3 points deduction, I now feel our fate is inevitable because of other teams’ around us form. I’ll always have hope, just not much of it.
Southern Baggie: Mozza has to be brave and translate this stability into forward momentum. A bit of a gamble on a young winger or a tweak to a formation to give Imray more attacking support. We don’t just need a win (or now two), we need to remember how to win. If we don’t beat Preston or Watford now, I don’t think we can think that we would beat Wednesday.
Nathan: As bad as the season has been Morrison has worked wonders with a team lacking any confidence. 4-4-2 is the formation we should have been playing all season. We’ve missed chances in the last few games to take all 3 points and I fear that will unfortunately cost us dearly come the end of the season.
Bev: The players must forget the PSR issue and continue to pick up valuable points. Obviously, within the next four games they need to win at least one match.
Steve: It’s going to be tight. Possible points deduction aside, if they win at Preston on Saturday I think they will finish outside the bottom 3. Blackburn and Charlton not out of it yet.
Rich: I think it will go to the last game having to beat Sheffield Wednesday to stay up.
Martyn: I think 50 or at most 52 points is usually regarded as enough to survive but seeing how things are going, I think it may be 53 or 54 this season. That would require at least two wins.
Nathan C: Everything that can go wrong this season has gone wrong multiple times. First we’ve had two completely disastrous manager appointments, then we’ve had numerous players out from injury and now a potential points deduction to top it all off. Everything is so up in the air at the moment, I honestly don’t know where we will be next season. Serious questions need to be asked in the summer.
