Reason given that there are three teams in the league worse than us, which he seems to struggle to name.  "Villa, um... Norwich aren't great.  Maybe Sunderland?  They'll be there or thereabouts.  Bournmouth play pretty well.  Could get dragged into it I guess but they'll probably be OK. So yeah, 100% staying up."

I'm probably on a 6 at the moment, the Bournemouth home game is crucial as I think they will be one of the teams right in the mix at the end of the season.

 

Personally can see Villa, Norwich dropping with us, Bournemouth and Sunderland scrapping over the final place.

 

No idea which way the final place will go... the Bournemouth and Sunderland home games are massive.

Villa are obviously gone and I think Norwich are unlikely to stay up. Four contenders for the last place - mackems, us, Swansea and Bournemouth. Think it might be between us and Swansea.

Win against Stoke and we drag Bournemouth and Crystal Palace right into it.

 

Only if Norwich beat Chelsea too, really

Stoke will be another 3-0 or similar imo

I'm not sure. Suppose we need to see if that "training camp" actually did anything :lol:  I reckon we could get something (draw, doubt we'd win), even though of course it's way more likely we wont

Training camp won't have done anything to change McClaren being shit and terrified of losing when making his selections. It'll be the same team with Wijnaldum again ineffective in that role but he'll leave it until too late to change.

 

Colback was also in the training pics so he'll likely be straight back in as well.

Norwich are going end up saving us by default

 

It's not them I'm worried about, it's the mackems - they're only a point  behind us, playing much better than us and pretty much guaranteed 3 points in the derby.

 

Yep - Allardyce is doing what he's always done. Made them organised, ugly and they're going to get harder to beat.

 

I still think we'll go.

Win the 4 home games against the other teams in the bottom 7 and we probably do enough just about. That would take us to 36, you'd think somewhere in the other 8 games we'd pinch a win or scrape enough draws. No room for error though, must win those 4 games.

Probably down to about a 5 after the last 4 days' events. Sunderland would have been looking for at least 3-4 points from those two games, Norwich look shot. Even if we lose tomorrow I think it's 50-50.
