Took action too late in the season.

 

There is no way whatsoever I can see our shite squad being capable of winning tomorrow either which takes it above 10 tbh. We're fucked. Can only hope Norwich send the unwashed down with us.

It's two out of us, the mackems, Norwich, Swansea & Palace.

 

Said it weeks ago and was laughed at, looking more and more likely now. Especially if Villa nick something against Swansea.

 

Swansea are 11 points clear. Palace effectively 9 points clear. 9 points means at least three wins, when us and Sunderland have only won six all season.

 

It's 2 from 3.

If, make that IF, it ended up being Sunderland and Palace. Would that make up for the ball-ache of a season we've endured (again). You know what, I think it just might. Let us follow Leicester's lead from last season. Actually, while I'm on, let's follow their lead next season too!

With us and the mackems playing each other tomorrow, we both cant lose. So Palace will be a maximum of 7 points from the drop (if it is a draw, mackems will be 7 behind them). If the mackems beat us then they'll be 5 off the drop.

 

That is also with them having to play both us and Norwich. This is also a team with no win in 13 and Pardew in charge. They are absolutely in it, 100%.

 

Swansea I don't think are, at the time of writing it was 0-0 against Villa. Guzan has given them survival pretty much.

Norwich will also see us as one of the games they can win.

 

As Dave says, its hard to see Swansea and Palace being dragged into it, they basically only need 3pts each to stay up. Theres no way NUFC and the scum will get 4 wins apiece out of 9 games.

 

Draw tomorrow and I reckon it will be both us and the mackems joining Villa.

We're at that part of the season where you start seeing strange results, with the bottom clubs getting desperate, top teams feeling the pressure and midtable teams winding down for their holidays, so predicting individual games is much harder.

 

Can see a scenario for instance where we lose the next 2 and everyone thinks we're done then beat Southampton and Swansea and everything is up in the air again. Going to be stressful as fuck whatever happens.

Wow, it's going to be close:

 

15 Crystal Palace 38 9 9 20 34:51 -17 36

16 Swansea City 38 9 9 20 32:50 -18 36

17 Newcastle        38 10 6 22 34:67 -33 36

18 Norwich City 38 8 10 20 34:61 -27 34

19 Sunderland      38 6 11 21 38:68 -30 29

20 Aston Villa 38 3 8 27 25:70 -45 17

 

That's with us winning the Derby BTW.  Lose that, and we're both going down.

You might as well post a picture of a dog as post one of those prediction things.

 

If any of us could predict football results to a point where a 10 game league table would be accurate to within a couple of points at most (which is what this will probably come down to), we'd never have to work again. But we can't. So stop it.

Good point Wullie. We need another way... can you make out any patina on yer bucket which looks like the face of  God? (Keegan that is...) "It's a sign, it's a sign!"

What was Leicester's position this time last season? Were they better or worse off than us?

Much worse off (7 points I think) with a harder run-in.

Yesterday's result has turned this one into the 'must not lose', and the Norwich game into the 'must win' category.

 

8.

 

I know it seems like it now, but neither of them are must wins really. We could easily win other games instead and same goes for Norwich and the mackems. Everything could turn on it's head week to week, especially considering you get weird results on the run in to the season.

 

The best approach is just to take one game at a time.

Just reminded me of someone who gets paid to do this.  Let's have a look at his table:

I think the worst thing about this is that he does it week by week, but doesn't adapt as the season goes on.  :lol:  He keeps predicting Leicester to lose and Chelsea to win every game.  West Ham on 20 points FFS.  :lol:
