ElDiablo Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 8. its three out of us, boro, west brom and stoke Shouldn't your vote be 2.5 then? 7.5 surely Got a C in Maths, see why? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Looking at the table, everyone from Hull downwards could easily go down this season. Of those 10 or so teams, Tottenham are the only ones who have real quality on paper... so should expect to get out of it eventually. I'm getting more and more worried, but I'm still hanging on to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allmo Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Looking at the table, everyone from Hull downwards could easily go down this season.

I'm getting more and more worried, but I'm still hanging on to that. That reasoning for me to think that we may not be relegated just doesn't cut it anymore. I would usually think to myself 'we may be bad, but there are still a few worse teams than us'. But I seriously think we are now one of those teams that fans of say Pompey will think that they are better than so should be safe. I'll give us an 8.5 on the relegationometer, what a dire mess we are in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure it will as we aren't picking up any points at the moment, but it could. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mag_in_NZ Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Wins against those below us and them not improving plus hopefully getting 3 points against the Mackems (please God), Portsmouth and Fulham with the odd draw should give us another 20 points and I think we'll be OK Realistically voted 8 as I can't see where the next win is coming from after some of the performances of late Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewellander Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I've gone from 3 to 8 since this thread was started. If we lose to Sunderland on the weekend, we're going down, I'm afraid. I don't know where we're going to find the points to keep us up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 only win we're gonna get is if we sign new player(s) and they come in and do something off their own back to win a game 'cause JFK's coaching, management & tactics ain't gonna win us shit the barton/owen injuries with ashley watching mean if he was EVER gonna be shocked into spending money to keep us up it'll be now so with 4 days to go of the window i'm at 7 where i was when this thread started, no players in and it's 10 for me, nailed on certainty lucky win against the mackems might help, mind it'll have to be lucky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaizero Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 We'll stay up. Not a doubt in my mind, even with everything being shite we're better than the ones that will eventually take the plunge to the Championship. It might be very very close and nerve-wrecking towards the end of the season, but we won't go down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RowanB Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Let's do a bit of maths. Newcastle are currently trading at 3.95 to go down at Betfair. If 3.95 is a fair price, then Newcastle have a 25.32 % chance of going down. 25.32% of 10 is 2.532. My rating is therefore: 3 (rounded to nearest integer). I suppose this would make more sense if 0 was an option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Jerusalem Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 A midfield choice of Butt, Geremi and Smith for the forseeable future. Selling our best keeper to fund transfers that are starting to sound unlikely before the Mackem game, if at all. No recognised right fullback available and the left one Two one goal strikers available - one of which won't get on the field if it gets to a choice between him and Krul. Going for a nine here.

NG32 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 We draw home games then lose the return fixture against the same team. Thats not picking up enough points. I'm now an 8. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Chill out, we'll stay up. I just see in a newcastle tracksuit standing on the touch line pointing and shouting. It sends shivers down my spine. I would even say, we have the worst manager in the prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I went with 7 when this thread was started, there was one point when I thought I was being overly pessimistic, but I think it's about right now, if not a little kind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Aye, that Portsmouth game seems a long time ago now. Remember all those on here giving each other hands jobs over Mike Ashley and the players purchased for this season after that game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
