Yorkshire Ripper Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 To stay up, I felt we needed top class players to win the games in spite of Pardew. Tonight is the first evidence of this happening so I'm feeling okay at the moment. 2-6 points from the next two games would be brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heero Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 A win against chelsea would do wonders now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Tonight helped for sure, next two games become even more crucial though now. On paper we should get nothing from them but we are only four points clear so can't afford to just right them off, but probably just as important is the need to build on this win and change the momentum of the season, two or more points from the next two and I think we will be fine.

matta Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Unexpected win. But with our new midfield force and alot better squad depth im reducing my previous 9, to a 5. 50/50. We need to be able to play like the first half for more than 45 minutes. I understand we can't be in charge for 90 minutes, but we need to have some posession and create som chances in our, now standard, poor half. Sissoko, Debuchy and Gouffran looks a massive boost so far. Way more positive than just one week ago. (also MBiwa, but he hasn't started yet) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMTW Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Was a pessimistic 10 after Reading. Reduced to a 4 after the signings and Villa result. Was certain it was going 3 from the bottom 5 but I can see the bottom group getting in to touch with Norwich and possibly West Ham. Reducing our chances. What will keep us up this season is that there's quite a few shit teams. Not that we're any good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 We're more likely to stay up than go down IMO, so it's about a 4 for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 After last night's results the bookies have us out at 6/1, which equates to around 15% chance of going down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 If we beat Chelsea we would have the same points after same games in season we went down, but surely would be more positive? - Villa had 51 points at that point, oh how they have fallen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Struggling to see 3 of the current bottom 5 gaining at least 4 or 5 more points than us in the last 14 games. Pretty confident we'll get more points than all of the teams below us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Reading are bloody annoying, whilst only Villa and Southampton (just!) lost this week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 With a better manager, I would reduce my forecast to 5 mainly because of the new signings. As it is, with Pardew in charge and Reading getting another good point last night, I'm sticking with the original 7 until I see concrete evidence that the players are going to be used properly.

loki679 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 We've still got to play Wigan away and Southampton at home. A lot could rest on those two games. 5 on this new scale for me, could go either way depending on whether our manager can grow some balls and/or a brain.
