Guest P.Aimar10 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Hey guys I was looking at the table and it looks like if you win or tie if wigan loses you guys avoid relegation right? Arsenal needs the points for 4th place so they will be looking to smash wigan, is it safe to say newcastle is in the clear? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't really have to wait til Wigan match. Good luck for the Porto match. Win it to break their unbeaten run and seal your championship there.

It goes beyond that tbh, if we win and Aston Villa lose to Chelsea we will stay up irrelevant of what Wigan do as Villa and Wigan play each other on last day. Basically win and forget this shit stain of a season ever happened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we beat qpr and either Norwich or Sunderland draw then that's it jobs done, no chance either of them will come away with a win last day of the season.

Scoreboard82 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 If we beat QPR aren't we safe regardless of what else happens? No but if Villa get beaten off Chelsea we are. Please let this happen. Can't take much more stress. We've been thrown a massive lifeline last night, but the pessimism this club has instilled in me makes me think of how bad it would feel to still go down. When Wigan took the lead after about 56 seconds of a minutes stoppage time, it really did seem like we were fated to go down. At last we got a lucky break. Make it count Newcastle and make sure we don't get into this kind of mess again. As for Wigan, i'd be glad to see the back of them. Sick of all the hype about their powers of escapology, blah, blah. It's about time their luck ran out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, also p*ssed me off last night when they were harping on about Mcmanaman showing real character to come through all of the grief after the assault and just get on with his game. Martinez went straight down in my estimations after that as well, not to mention the handball winner. Urgh, hope they disappear and never come back.

Mick Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I want whatever it takes to stay up and for Pardew to be sacked. I'd imagine the sacking has already been decided one way or another though. Agreed and I want him gone at the earliest opportunity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Don't think any result matter in the grand scheme of us staying in the league. Chelsea will want to beat Villa to confirm their CL spot. Personal preference is for Spurs to win. Will be great if Chelsea (c***s) or Arsenal (wake-up call) misses out on CL football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 £755,000 per place last season. Finishing 12th would net us circa £3.75m more than 17th. For us, that's another player. I don't think 12th or 17th will make a difference as to whether he's fired, but I'd take Pardew being sacked over Pardew ineffectively utilising whatever the £3.75m would buy us (on the far from safe assumption it'd actually be reinvested in the squad in a non-emergency situation). Easy decision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 If we beat QPR, Villa lose to Chelsea, Sunderland lose to Southampton and Norwich draw against West Brom would you root for Wigan against Arsenal? Or would you prefer Wigan went down instead of the Mackems? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 If we beat QPR, Villa lose to Chelsea, Sunderland lose to Southampton and Norwich draw against West Brom would you root for Wigan against Arsenal? Or would you prefer Wigan went down instead of the Mackems? If that happened I'd like a result that would mean on the final day we would be happy no matter with what twist. As a result us beating QPR, and Chelsea beating Villa I would also like it so Norwich got a result so the final day it would be between Wigan, Sunderland, and Villa.
