TooonDoom Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 When I have my negative hat on I just can't see us beating qpr. We've won 1 in 17 away games this year. We don't look like scoring and all luck is firmly against us. We could not even beat a west ham team with nothing to play for with two of their players wearing toon kegs. With the positive hat on qpr have worst home record, nothing to play for. If anything it's in their interest to lose. Do they really want to drag us into the championship when they are going for promotion next year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdm Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I think we will better Norwich's results over the next 2 games. It's just the waiting to find out. Gonna be a nervy couple of weeks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisJbarnes Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 When we went down last time, I probably didnt appreciate the potential severity fully and took solace from the fact that we could have a "fresh start" which we did and it worked. However, this time around it would be absolutely disastrous. We have one of our best squads in years (OK not as good as we might think given this season) and a financial infrastructure allowing us to go forward- in the premier league. Go down and we lose all our internationals, and I dont think we'll be as attractive to new players second time round. Questionable how up for it the fans will be as well.

ExiledGeordie Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 As much as the Villa fans taunting of us when we went down still grates me I have huge respect for what Lambert has managed to do under pressure recently. And as much as I can't stand McManacunt, Martinez and that old twatt of a chairman you have to hand it to them the way they keep going. Both those sides play decent football and keep going trying to win matches which is about as far away from us as you'll see. Norwich looked awful yesterday from the highlights I've just watched. Seems like we have to better their results to stay up barring some results we wouldn't expect like Swansea getting something at Wigan and Sunderland not getting anything v Stoke.

Andybiotics Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Whatever happens, we'll probably all age about 20 years over the next couple of weeks. The QPR game will be our biggest game in decades, imo, because if we go down, I don't think we'll come back up this time round We'll also have to keep our eyes on the Arsenal/Wigan & Norwich/West Brom games, because they will be big factors in whether or not we stay up. Did the BBC Predictor thing yesterday, and Norwich went down, on goal difference. Tight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I think we are gone n will be in bottom 3 by Wed. Villa and Wigan picked up wins through their determination and desire. We scraped a point in the end and have no idea how we will beat qpr. even if we do I reckon we need a draw with arsenal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro111 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 My only crumb of comfort in all this is the fact that I know that there is a good performance in us somewhere and that I think we are due a massive slice of good fortune. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I'm resigned to Villa and Wigan finishing above us. I'm placing my hope in WBA beating Norwich and then City spanking them, but, if City are already confirmed 2nd and Arsenal need a result I can see us getting the worse result between the 2. I really did fancy Wigan yesterday, WBA are on their hols, take the game to them and you'll be on top, take your foot off and they'll do ok. We fucked up big time down there. We have to go at QPR, make them realise that we are bang up for it and hope they pack in. If it turns into a cagey performance we'll retreat and take what's coming. From going into the derby thinking we were safe I now believe we're about even money to go down, how we're 6/1 the way we're playing in comparison to those around us I'll never know. Take us or Norwich to go down and you'll makes money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Gonna be real f***ing close like, disgrace that it has come to this. Last day at St. James' has the potential to get very f***ing messy. If we went down at home on the last game of the season there would probably be full on riots in the town. If we do stay up, the second the ref blows the final whistle, i hope there's Pardew out songs and banners etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Can't believe we are going to rely on a GD when we were -10 just seven games ago. This is a horrible feeling. That fucking loss to Wigan hurt us more than any of us could imagine I think. We'd have 39 by now and they'd have 33...Who was the ref that didn't see those handballs? Probert?

bowlingcrofty Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Basically I think Wigan will get 6 more points, so it comes down to us bettering Norwich or smb's results over the next two weeks. Hopefully city will smash Norwich, so it comes down to next weekend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Im down to an 8, my lowest level of the season. Im at peace with the possibility of relegation and I cant believe im not more "rattled" but ive just got no fight or anger left. This season has been like a multi car pile up in slow motion.

Wullie Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Looking at other fixtures, teams having to play each other etc, three points will almost certainly be enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I dont know if 3 points will be enough, that 0-0 yesterday would have been a cracking little result if wigan and villa didn't pick up maximum points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its between us and Norwich now to be honest unless Swansea pull something out of the bag on Tuesday. If Norwich get beat and we take at least a point I think it would keep us up. But I think Norwich will take at least a point if not more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Phil K Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Gonna be real f***ing close like, disgrace that it has come to this. Last day at St. James' has the potential to get very f***ing messy. Even if we survive (which I doubt with Pardew) Pardew HAS to go. Just more of the same. In fact even if we go down he has to go. I just cannot see him managing what Hughton did.

joeyt Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Has it been mentioned yet that Beausejour might be out for the season? Wigan down to Boyce, Scharner and Golobart and Caldwell who hasnt played for a while I dont think Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Jerusalem Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I just have zero faith in us beating QPR and I dont see WBA beating Norwich either. I think we're done. Have to agree with this to be honest - the past results around us for the past month have been absolutely shit for us so there is no reason why this trend won't continue and as some one else said yesterday (I think it was Dave) nobody seems to do us any favours when we're in the shit.

Alberto2005 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Obviously I thought we COULD go down during the most of the season but it was only after yesterday I'm now shitting myself. I really thought Wigan had too much to do but now they've beaten West Brom we're in fucking shit. With our current squad of players and the T.V money next season going down would be absolutely sickening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
