Sorry VI, you can tap him up all you want but we're not selling.

SWP and Muntari seem like such "I don't actually watch football but they seem class on FM and they show up a lot in the media so they must be decent" suggestions.

Come to think of it Spurs are probably a "bigger" club than Liverpool in every way, shape, and form now. They have a far superior team, Champions League football, a better chance of getting Champions League football in both the short and long term, and more money. It's safe to say that they've officially "replaced" them as a member of the big four.

We are probably going to lose against Spurs and Arsenal. Still safe though.

Man, thought that chip from Torres went in.

I didn't even know that Newcastle or Kenny Dalglish existed when he was manager here but for some reason I still think it would be hilarious if he failed.

Screw you mods, change the title back. I am standing by my confident knee-jerk assertion that we will safe and prepared to take the full naming and shaming and piss drinking if we do go down.

Nee chance unfortunately. Their next 3 games: Wolves (a) Draw Fulham (H) win Stoke (H) win Plenty of winnable games down the stretch as well. I wouldn't back Liverpool to beat any team in the league right now. Ah, fuck it, they've just got a pen though.

That would be if I said "we're gannin ta Europe!" I don't see how it's a large leap to say that barring a meltdown of historic and completely unrealistic proportions we are now safe from relegation.

They'll spend their way out of trouble, particularly if they lose this match. Who that they could realistically buy right now is good enough to fundamentally shift the abject shitness of that team though? Whoever's coming is not going to have Champions League football next year and probably not for the forseeable future.

No, we'll get someone to piss in a cup for you to drink it. Also we have your facebook page now so we'll get you somehow. ...fuck

Is it possible? Could they actually, really get relegated? This is the first time all season, including when they were 19th, when I'm actually starting to think so.

I don't mind really, will probably be too devastated to ever show my face here again anyway if we're relegated

If we go down I will piss in a cup and drink it.

Screw it. We have enough class in the first team to make top half, never mind avoid relegation. We've shown that we have the ability to fight through injuries/suspensions to key players. There are 11 teams below us and we can't possibly f*** up more than all but two of them. And seriously, when's the last f***ing time a team in the top half in January went down. Ashley could sell Barton and Carroll, sack Pardew, and put the club up for sale tomorrow and we'd probably still scrape through somehow. In FM terms, it's time to "Change Season Expectations" from avoid relegation to mid-table finish.

IMO, I think it's officially time to say that we're safe. http://www.chiropracticinthephilippines.com/images/knee%20jerk%20reflex.jpg

We got a point off them at their place with a team that had Best and Shola up front and Smith -> Guthrie in midfield. They should all hang themselves in shame really.

Those are obviously photoshopped.

Blessing in disguise if he's out for three matches

Over half of those players would walk into our squad to be honest. Then again, same vice versa as well. Evenly matched imo.

I'm reasonably confident that he'll go when he says he wants to and not a minute before that.

It's a bit of a shame that a team of Iran's caliber feels the need to time-waste like that against the likes of North Korea.

"happy with a draw" my ass. We're going out there with a terrible starting XI and beating them 1-0 with a goal deflected off Alan Smith's left elbow in the 94th minute. You heard it here first.
