Godot Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Relieved, like a knot has been untied in my chest. I'm quite confident we'll have enough in the tank the stay up. I'm down to a 4, that might sound too optimistic for some, but fuck me, I'm so delighted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiquidAK Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 4, Hull need to get points, which they won't. We have the confidence right now, I think we can get something from Fulham and Villa. Tbh, we don't even need another point, but it will make it a lot more certain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1878 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I think you're safe now, Hull don't look like they could win a raffle at the minute and Boro have been all but down for ages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnypd Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 down from 9 to 5 now, we have to maintain intensity and committment for the next two games and hope Hull and Sunderland keep playing shite. in our own hands but we always find a way to fuck things up dont we?

Guest Albert Square Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 5? Fucking hell!!! Im still an 8, we may be out but imo we are another result from being confident, Hull have Bolton and we have Fulham this weekend, we could end up back in the thick of things or 3 points clear (an safety) Im waiting until the end of the weekend before I call ratings like 5 tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montey Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I just ran the BBC predictor. If we get 0 points, but Hull get 1 against Bolton (which they might yet do), we're down. But... If Hull loose their remaining games (Bolton & ManU) or if we can get 1 point against either Fulham or Aston Villa then we're safe. This is still a bit of a 50/50 toss up. I can very easily see Bolton being held to a draw against Hull, and I can easily see us doing something stupid and loosing both games to Fulham and Villa. I was saying a 10, but I am now backing off that to a 7. We may have some momentum, but we still have many ways to cock this up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I started watching this game at 5am in the morning... after staying up all night to watch it. Yeah, I need someone else to do the calculations.

YankeeToon Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Down to a 6. Not out of the woods, not by a long shot, but we're much more in control of our own destiny now. Any kind of result in either of our last 2 games, and I think we're in the clear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Not sure, I can't go above a 5, I don't think we're worse than 50/50 to down by any means. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Obviously we can still fuck this up, but I think this win will be the lift we need to play well against Fulham. We still have to go for the win in that match but I really think that our odds of surviving are better than 50% now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I've changed my voted for the first time in months, from 10 to 5 Still work to do but the physcological lift that gives us is immense. Victory against Fulham on Saturday could well leave us, just about safe, that's a great feeling but I'll also be cheering on Bolton, Pompey, Villa and Liverpool this weekend.

Guest GAMMELL Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 We need another victory in my opinion to guarantee safety... Hull will pick up two draws in their remaining fixtures, Mancs will play thier f*cking kids against them at the KC last game and will more than likely get a draw against Bolton... Im on 7.5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Down from a 9 to a 6. This win was monumental, but it would be so typically Newcastle to fuck it up from here.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GAMMELL Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I couldn't give a f*ck if the mackems stay up regardless, as long as we're suited & booted & roaring for the start of next season in the Premier League I will be f*cking over the moon bollock naked..

Razor Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 9 to a 5. I think we now have a 50% chance of staying up, the team must use the momentum going into this weekend, i can see Bolton not giving a damn and handing it over to Hull so 3 points is a must and is what i think will see us safe, Hull and the mackems wont go above 37 most likely.
