I might actually gain a life if we go down - not being able to sit down and watch 30 toon matches at home on tv, taking up most weekends of the year.

Smith was mint - got in at least 2 rash tackles and blasted a good shooting chance high and wide.

I dont know how anyone can be a 5. We are 19th with 5 matches to go, having won 6 games in 33, and now needing to win 3 in 5. We are shite.

After the Man U game, followed by a home win against Bolton and an exciting cup tie at Coventry i thought the good times were back and we'd finish top 8. Then there was the whole KK saga, and what could have been a win against Hull which i think would have took us into the top 4, was a defeat and we all know what followed. Xisco was a cracking signing mind, glad we got rid of KK to bring him in.

18 months ago when KK took over, if somebody had told me were would get relegated the next season i would have laughed in their face. But jesus, it looks like its gonna happen. Unbelievable.

Cracking game finished Man C 4-2 West Brom

Must beat Pompey and Boro, draw against Fulham and something at Villa. Liverpool we wont get jack. We also need to hope Hull and Boro get fuck all. Hull's remaining five fixtures include matches against Villa, Liverpool and Man U. Boro still have to play Arsenal and Man U too.

Shite first half, decent second. Oba should have burried that chance he had with 3mins remaining.

Anything but a win against Pompey next week and we are down.

if we dont beat Pompey we are down.

How many more points will Hull get? They'll be VERY lucky to get 4 IMO. That would mean 8 more points will keep us up, providing we dont get hammered at Anfield, on goal diff.

Yep Tho personally i think 7 points from those will keep us up, 9 defo will. what? 37 pts will be nowhere near safety, sundland32, hull, pomp, bburn 34...will all surpass 37. We'll see

Yep Tho personally i think 7 points from those will keep us up, 9 defo will.

i had forgot all about Emre... thank fuck he's not still here.

2-2 Harper, Beye, Bassong, Edgar, Enrique, Jonas, Guthrie, Nolan, Duff, Owen, Carroll

Probably been talked about, but it seemed like after Stoke scored Shearer said to Dowie "Who's fault was that?" and Dowie replied "Shola". Should have been dropped at half time for Carroll. Strange decisions by Shearer, seemed canny obvious we needed Carroll n Jonas on the pitch.

How many years left on his contract? 3? Cracking decision to give him a new deal

I still think 7 more points and we'll just be safe, but will go into the final day of the season with the chance of going down. Can't see Hull getting another 3 points, if they did, that would put them on 37 with a terrible goal difference. Boro and Pompey at home are simply must wins, spurs, fulham, villa represent chances to pick up draws.

im predicting an exciting 2-2 draw

Who are they playing? and i'll support them.

you were bored then?

Could massively do with a win, but in all honesty i would take a draw. I reckon 8 points will keep us up, therefore a draw here, then 2 wins and a draw at home IMO would be enough.

8 points will do it Either 3 home wins (Boro, Pompey, Fulham) or wins at home to Pompey and Boro, and draws @ Stoke and home to Fulham

Carroll 2 goals, and Guthrie off injured in last nights reserve match.

I doubt many Stoke fans can read tbh.
