I'll try to keep the stats updated, and when I get on my laptop I'll tidy up the formatting a bit 👍

It would be nice if he could maintain his current 50% win ratio.
 
Can we count the third round tie as one fixture?

If so, it would be nice if he could maintain his current 75% win ratio.
 
If we keep 1.25 ppg then we get to 40 points which would be enough. If we get a points deduction then i think we would still be ok. I can't see us getting 10 point deduction either.

I expect Luton to drop off given they have a harder run in. I think Everton will be ok and my preference is always Luton to go down over everton anyway.

I've got nothing against Everton personally and i feel for the fans the way the club has been run.

The Sheffield United defeat could be the result that breaks Lutons fight. They lost that hugely critical game in front of their own fans to the team bottom of the league. Their next 4 fixtures are Man U, Man City, Villa and Liverpool.

That's a long time and a very likely run of defeats to let that Sheffield United score fester.
