It'll just be like musical chairs for the rest of the season with any and all of the bottom 11 teams in danger of going down.

 

Same as last year then.

 

Don't recall it being quite as tight as it is this year though, but yeah loads of teams in danger as per.

Want:

 

Mackem Bastards, West Ham and Stoke

 

Think:

Palace, Fulham, Cardiff

 

[Tiresias]

What I really want is Sunderland to look like they've lifted themselves to safety only on the last day some freak sequence of results to relegate them

What I want is for us to hammer them and watch their spirit disappear as they limp to relegation.

[Tiresias]

Yeah but that's never going to happen though 

[Jordan]

Sunderland, West Ham and Fulham. Really want Villa in there though.

From what I remember last season though, it was pretty much 1 spot for 6-7 clubs because Reading & QPR were never staying up. This season though, everyone below Southampton are trying to avoid all 3 places. There's 5 points between 8th & 9th, then 6 points between 10th & 20th. Mental.

this time last season I was so sure we were going down, nice to be pretty much safe already has to be said

This time last year we lost at home to Reading

[womblemaster]

cardiff, west ham and either fulham or wba. 

 

atmo mackems are on the up....

 

not sure on palace, they have an expereinced manager, who can drag them up the table....

I think Palace have more chance of staying up than Sunderland.

[Tiresias]

Sunderland are on hte up the same way Reading were this time last season, they're still not very good and possibly too little too late, (any other season would definitely be too little too late)

[Stifler]

Assuming 35 points will be enough to stay up then that would mean Sunderland need 17 points to meet that.

 

Their fixtures aren't actually that favourable as people make out, getting 15+ points from them would actually be a very good return. I'm not sure they are capable of it, I think they will draw too many games.

The game when the crowd turned on Pardew. Really thought that was it for him, somehow slimed his way out of it.

[Optimistic Nut]

As many points as what Sunderland & West Ham have put together. Someone make a mock-up of a half & half badge in homage.

[Tiresias]

mind it's a good job we're not in a cup anymore, it may jeopardize finishing 7th rather than 8th

[Dave]

Might be wrong but I would have thought that normally there's one club that by this point is losing almost every week and therefore you're already looking at two relegation places to fill.

 

This year the league is wide open, top and bottom. It's loads better, just a pity we're stuck in the middle doing nowt.

[toontownman]

Villa looked good today before gabby went off..could find himself back in the England squad if he keeps on today's form. Unstoppable.

 

However as a villa fan you have to be worried when you sign grant holt on loan... Dog fight is a coming!

To be fair, we could easily come away with 6 points from our next two, Chelsea have a couple of awkward looking games in their next 3 before we play them and Spurs aren't a million miles ahead of us before they come here. We could be back on the fringes of the top 6 again soon.

I advocated putting him on the plane to SA 4 years ago but that's been and gone now. No point in playing him on the biggest international scene where opponents are more pragmatic and won't give him a tenth of the space he got tonight.

[Optimistic Nut]

Only 2 wins from beating last season's tally for the season.

[Disco]

Would be a wet dream if the mackems, Villa and West Ham contrived to send themselves down.

[Guest thenorthumbrian]

I want Solksjaer to take Cardiff down I couldn't care less about Cardiff .But I hate the evil little cunt for trying to cripple Rob Lee.

Even if he does, the finger will be pointed at Tan. Let him do it next season instead
