Guest Spark Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Southampton are only a point above us! They're still fighting for their life. Aye. I think some people need to have a closer look at the table tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Haris Vuckic Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Lots of teams are in it but your brown trousers are a lot more sensitive when you get beat 0-6 at home. That said the last two away results have been decent. Sunderland missing Sess and Gardener for the run in, what does the latter actually do? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ploppy43 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I reckon if we get 3 points at QPR it's job done but it is a big IF. Norwich could well get sucked into the bottom 3 as I think they look weaker than Wigan atm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Haris Vuckic Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 That's what I was thinking. The other fella will be a miss but Gardener is totally gash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-421 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Gardner can watch their last two matches in with the fans. Its the kind of thing he does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can fill in at full back, which may be vital when they play Spurs last game of the season without Rose Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyP Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 My point was that if we beat QPR, it should be enough due to the sheer number of teams down there, but if Sunderland were a point below, id have been a lot more comfortable as we could have been mathematically safe next weekend. Our only chance of wrapping it up this weekend is if we win and Wigan lose both games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're safe with a game to spare it we beat QPR, Wigan beat Swansea but lose to Arsenal and Villa lose to Chelsea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
binnsy Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 the worry to that though is if Chelsea turn Spurs over tomorrow night they are guaranteed a CL spot and could rest even more than normal when they go to Villa as they have the Europa league final next week. Villa could end up playing Chelsea's reserves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok but you still get the point here, we are relying on ourselves and 2 other results either way, where as we could have had it wrapped up with just us and 1 other if it were'nt for last night. May sound like nitpicking individual results but its so close down there, we need every little advantage and inch towards safety we can get! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 They will spank Southampton and go safe. Think they will be fine. No chance. They might win but they won't be spanking anyone. Agreed. There's no way they're a better side than Saints. Not only that but they've lost pretty much 100% of their goal threat.....only hope is either Johnson or a set piece.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Rose is out of the Spurs game as well, their best player by quite a long way. They must be shitting themselves at least as much as we are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nixon Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Rose is out of the Spurs game as well, their best player by quite a long way. They must be shitting themselves at least as much as we are. You wouldn't think so. The atmosphere last night was quite a positive one. They vented towards McClean for his usual stupid decisions, but with Di Canio around they always find something to cheer about and get behind. It's the kind of atmosphere ultimately needed at SJP in a weeks time. For all Stoke City were turgid last night, the fans played a large part in carrying them into getting that draw and giving the players just a shot of adrenaline when needed. I'm aware of the cliché '12th man' idea, but we've seen enough players reference the influence of a crowd. They're all pulling together on this one and it's going to be a test for Southampton on Sunday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're still surfing the Di Canio Wave at the minute. Next season will be different though. And I still think Southampton will have too much for them.

Guest DebuchyAndTheBeast Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Fairplay to them for rescuing a point yesterday but they were lucky Stoke didn't have any pacy players to hit them on the counter when they were pushing for an equalizer. Can't see them getting anything at Spurs although they could get something against Southampton if they work on their set pieces . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ElCid Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 They will spank Southampton and go safe. Think they will be fine. Disagree Stoke give them the result yesterday and I think Southampton will get at least a draw on Saturday as they won't play into the mackems hands by just hoofing the ball forward like Stoke did. IMHO Sunderland are the worst team in the league and thanks to a gutless display by our Manager and players they should already be down now. Problem is that we need to get a result against QPR and with this manager I'm not confident of that at all. It pisses me off that the players we have at our disposal may go down and it's one of the most shocking displays of management I have or ever will see - yet some still think he should be in the job absolutely incredible!
