It isn't actually over, there's obviously a chance the circumstances could come together but it's pretty unlikely. I'm not even going to think about it for now. I think the mackems will beat Everton now. If they don't, and especially if they lose, it's back on. I won't tease myself til if and when that happens.

I'm amazed anybody is still clinging to any hope that this can be salvaged. It's over man, just get your heads round next season's promotion push. Leave this thread to die along with Hitler and Joe Kinnear.

After getting all of the depression out of the way this weekend, I thought this thread needed a spark of foolish optimism.

 

This:

is certainly not beyond the realms of possibility, and would see us survive.

 

TBH I'd rather see Norwich win their remaining two games, and both us and Sunderland lose. At least that way the SMB wouldn't have bragging rights beyond goal difference.

Can't decide if I'd prefer a Sunderland draw or loss on Weds.

 

A loss obvioulsy makes it 'more likely' that we stay up as either a draw or loss for them on Sunday and we stay up*

A draw only gives us one outcome on Sunday that keeps us up* but gives Sam an excuse to play for a draw, which could increase the liklihood of a Watford win - ala us in the 92 play offs

 

* Assumption that we beat Spurs of course

Pretty easy

 

Loss and multiple injuries and a mass brawl

It's over, I'm sorry but it is.

 

We need Sunderland to get a maximum of 1 point from two matches against two teams who are massively struggling at the moment. I'd feel more confident if the mackems were playing someone like a Tony Pulis team who would shut up shop and force them into the worst 0-0 ever.

We also need to beat Tottenham, who even with their issues are a class above us.

Not discounting Norwich, who could easily get the points they need to overhaul us.

 

It would take a miracle for us to survive and miracles don't happen for NUFC supporters.

 

I've already looked into hotels and travel to Championship games next year and started to arrange my holidays around the Championship schedule, so they cant stay up now like or it'll totally inconvenience me.

How can you plan holidays around a Championship schedule when you don't know what nights we're away, etc?

Start of the season, Championship starts earlier than Premier League.

 

Was going to go away and come back the night before Premier League starts, but had to move it a week earlier now.

What a couple of horrid sets of fans and clubs. NUFC in the championship is still a better club and will have bigger gates than both of them next season. Don't get all this whinging from neverton fans what to do they expect!? Talking about Newcastle like they are superior even though they can't match us in any department in the last 20 years.
