We gotta stay up. Every game on TV next year, ffs! I want to watch us lose in HD over multiple devices.

 

Look on the bright side, maybe we'll get into the playoffs next season.

 

 

That's all Mike really cares about to be honest; lesser teams managing to upset the odds in a playoff system. I bet he was ecstatic when Hull got promoted in 2008. He probably loves Phil Brown.

Can only see us going down now, we wont get another point and wigan/villa will get the points required

[Jill]

We're just sleepwalking into relegation and I'm struggling to see a way out. 

[Wilson]

Can still get 12/1 on BetVictor.....just saying.

 

9. We're gan doon. Wigan gona do their usual, at our expense.

[George Bailey]

Up to a 7 from 5 after the debacles of late. Looking less of a cohesive unit than both Villa and Wigan.

Getting worried

QPR game is why I'm not above a 7 though...

[oldtype]

If the players have given up to the extent they showed today we might as well start packing our bags.

 

Need to break them out of their stupor somehow.

[ExiledGeordie]

We're just sleepwalking into relegation and I'm struggling to see a way out. 

 

That perfectly sums it up. There isn't anyone in the side to shout at the other players and wake them up. No leadership off the pitch, none on it

[toon25]

Worrying thing is that besides form, Aston Villa and Wigan are playing as more of a team than we ever did, especially in the past 4 games. We're going from one nadir to another.

 

That's my main worry, it's all about momentum when you get to this stage and we look f***ing demoralised.

 

Cisse, Cabaye, Sissoko, Debuchy, MYM, Tiote, all showing signs of real frustration on the pitch in recent games and I don't blame them for that. You sign for the club on the promise of being able to play your football and got sold a lie. Their confidence have totally evaporated and I can't see Pardew as the man to inject some drive back into them. We either have to stick with that man and hope results of Villa and Wigan go our way, or get a replacement for the remaining games hoping some fresh impetus will drive us over the line. Pardew is suffocating the life out of this team.

 

Bang on.

[womblemaster]

atmo we are NOT better team than wigan.  Only hope we have is their fixture congestion.....

[BlueStar]

We're getting nowt from Arsenal, so we're relying on getting points from away games. And we all know how that's gone.

[Karjala]

A draw with Stoke would see us both safe I think, as shite as that would be.

[LRD]

A draw with Stoke would see us both safe I think, as s**** as that would be.

 

We playing Stoke again?

late night last night! just looked at fixtures and we wont get another point.

[Elliottman]

Only play teams twice a season mate.

[Guest H09]

Imagine the riots on the last day if we to down at home. The city will be ruined.

[Karjala]

having realised we wont get any more points, and wigan will get 2 wins, ive put a fiver on us at 12/1.

[Guest Howaythetoon]

We will be relegated, and we will deserve it because we have been utter garbage in every single possible way. If we get rid of Pardew now, we stand a chance. If we don't, its down we go.

[NG32]

Back to the 2008 - 2009 season

[Ghandis Flip-Flop]

I'm really not liking the parallel that it could end up being bloody Villa sending us down again (Admittedly by virtue of them getting more points rather than playing us)

[Wilson]

having realised we wont get any more points, and wigan will get 2 wins, ive put a fiver on us at 12/1.

 

Put £50 on this morning, admittedly still a bit pissed.

[Robster]

We are Ipswich 2002

[BlueStar]

I'm praying the fact Villa and Wigan can't both get 3 points on the last day saves us. Of course if a draw would save them both that's exactly what will happen.

[bowlingcrofty]

Can see Wigan getting 7 more points. 3 vs Villa, Swansea. Draw vs WBA. Means we need a win from somewhere. Not gonna happen.

 

Down we go.

[Mistle17]

9 for me. I just cannot see where our next point or even goal is coming from.

[Elliottman]

I've got a feeling Wigan just wont be able to pull it off for some reason. Swansea and WBA are both tricky games. Maybe i'm just trying to convince myself.
