Teasy Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 the daft thing is, 3 more points could actually keep us up. Be the most underserved survival in the history of the league. Part of me goes to games like that and thinks relegation is almost necessary, first and foremost we need rid of the wankers that are the first ones to make noise in the chronicle and will be the first ones to f*** off when we go down. Talentless, gutless TWATS Which was the last team that stayed up with 34 points? This is a misconception, you can't look at other team's fixtures and hope they lose. They could be facing a team of juniors if the opposition has nothing to play for. What sort of team will FA cup finalists Everton put out against the mackems on Saturday for example? If we don't take the points we need we won't stay up. Clearly I wasn't refering to Sunderland though mate, they're on 35 West Brom in 2004/2005, but due to their goal difference 33 would actually have kept them up. Also if you look at seasons where 34 and better goal difference would have kept a team up (as in the 3rd bottom went down on 33/34) its been possible in three of the last 4 seasons.

Well let's hope everything goes perfectly then. At the moment our best chances seems to be relying on other results which I don't have a lot of faith in tbh.

Superior Acuña Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I really can't be arsed with people and their 10s and saying it's over. That's just stupid. I'm not saying we will stay up, but its idiotic to think there's no hope. We're crap, we'll probably get few more points, but its the same for those above us! 1 win, it may come from fluke or whatever is huge down here and its stupid to think its impossible. 1 win and we're level with Hull. Don't tell me it's impossible to get 4 points from the next 4 games. I'm not saying that would save us, but it might. And we might get more. Or Hull might go on a fluke good run. We don't know! I can't be arsed with people throwing in the towel now. There's 4 games left, and I'll be at them all, and I know it's possible til we're relegated. I'm a 9.

Its almost guarenteed this will be one of the seasons were 34 isn't enough, I'm beginning to believe we're destined to go down no matter what. Still I'll be at the Boro game to suffer another 90 minutes, I haven't completely given up hope yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Not thinking we'll go down. I think it's more likely that we'll just get 3 to 4 points from our last 4. But I don't think Hull will get any at all, and it will be tough for Sunderland as well. So I still firmly believe we'll stay up. I'll not lose hope until after the whistle is blown after 90 minutes at Villa Park and it's official that we're down. And even then, I'll refuse to believe it for the next couple of days.

Lagerstedt Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 If we win against Fulham and Boro I think we will be able to do it. Hull's run in is a tough one same as Middlesbrough (and ours). But I won't stop believing we can't do hence I'm still optimistic... Standing firm on 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp40 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I still think two home wins will keep us up, I just can't see us winning them. Great being a Newcastle fan, isn't it? FOR f*** SAKE!!!! Seriously though, if we do somehow win those two, it should be enough...just on goal difference. Don't think Hull will get anymore than 3 points, don't think Boro will get 7 points from their other 3 games, or WBA. i dont think we will win again edit,- hope im wrong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karjala Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I fancy Hull to beat Stoke, so we need two wins IMO, or hope Sunderland get no more than one point and we pick up a win n 2 draws. Clutching at straws. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clutching at straws. Me too, also scared that they'll pick up a point at Bolton. Hopefully they'll only get 3 points til the end of the season with us winning the two remaining home games and staying up on goal difference. Sunderland have 3 winnable games remaining and I suspect they'll pick up at least one win, meaning we'll need to get something at Villa or Anfield to stay in touch with them. Looking really bleak for us at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfrederi Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 The FAT LADY is in the building,...and rehearsing her song. Well she can F**k right off her services are gonna be needed a little down the road. We can win last two home games been mentioned before Portsmouth came to draw and set up shop to do it. Boro and Fulham will be different games. Lets see what the Mackems can muster against Everton Bolton Porstmouth and Chelski after the hammering West Brom gave them at the weekend Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then 20 minutes in, both sets of fans will be reminded of the shower of poo they have been watching all season and I think the atmosphere for the rest of the game will be great banter.

Chase Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I still believe we are going to stay up, everytime I predict the scores from the matches to come i get the following final results: 15 Blackburn -20 41pts 16 Newcastle -17 35pts 17 Sunderland -21 35pts 18 Hull -28 34pts 19 Boro -29 31pts 20 West Brom -37 28pts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Mongo Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 We haven't beaten Boro at home since 2004, and this time we draw most games. Anything could happen, of course, but 1) we're shit, and 2) that's it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 7 to an 8 now, all 3 strikers had an oppurtunity they should, and i would expect normally, would score and we came up with none. Anyone who has 10 (or more ), its a bit like saying i have a 10 sided dice, the number 1 represents us staying up, and there is 0% chance of that occurring...

relámpago blanco Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 This isthe first time I've honestly realised that we are most likely to go down, I always thought, it'll be alright we'll beat Pompey, Boro and Fulham at home, we didn't and in my opinion unless something drastic happens like Owen turning back into the player he was 8 years ago we are down.
