Ronaldo Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 According to Paul Montgomery (who used to scout for us and now scouts for Birmingham) they've made enquiries about Owen, Viduka and Bassong and were told that all 3 WILL leave and have clubs lined up for the summer with Owen to Man City, Bassong to Arsenal and Viduka undecided It would sound like the ultimate in lazy journalism if it were journalism yeah, fuckin superb ITK stuff from Montgomery. Owen to Man C, Bassong to Arsenal, and Viduka to Oz, wow. Just repeating what I was told by someone who knows far more than me or you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'd say that if we went into the villa game on the same points as Sunderland with a better goal difference and with them playing Chelsea then we'd have a real chance. I think everyone here would jump at that scenario right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 All i'm saying is that a win and a a draw probably wont be enough to finish above Sunderland Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 But thats not true. As said, if sunderland get no more points and manage to ONLY lose every game 1-0. We manage to catch them up on points, only win our game 1-0 & get a draw. At the very least we have to lose by 3 clear goals at villa...for sunlun to not go below us. If we're equal we stay up because we've scored more. Anyway, even then its unlikely they'll only lose each game 1-0. Their next game is bolton who they lost to earlier in the season 4-1, they also play chelsea. Dont see why 4 points probably wouldnt be enough if they dont win anymore, it probably would.

Godot Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Hull haven't won at home for a canny while but I fancy them to sneak a win against a Stoke, whom I reckon will take their foot off the pedal a bit. Think we'll have to catch Sunderland instead of Hull, I've watched them a bit lately and there's a lot of plusses for us to take - their front two look like they've never played with each other before, their skipper Dean Whitehead is definitely not good enough, Ferdinand at the back looks an accident waiting to happen and both Fulop and Craig Gordon when fit (doesn't look one bit like a £9m pound keeper) are dodgy. Can't see them getting anything away to Bolton on current form. If BOTH Hull and Sunderland win we are really left with a mountain and a half to climb and I can't see us pulling it off if that happens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
