Four wins and a draw from their last five games could see then just sneak in the play offs, just shows how shit the league has been bar the top two. Would be harder for them next season considering there could be a few big hitters going down and coming up into that league.

Honestly, I don't mind if they do come up. It doesn't bother me one bit. If anything it would make it more interesting having derbies once more. That 6 in a row stuff is history.... we would be very likely to thrash them the majority of the time.

We've got nowt to gain from playing them. 

 

I'd rather they languished in mediocrity.

Never enjoyed the derby's even when we had the upper hand and beat them 5 times in a row. The nervous tension, the knot in my stomach before and during it. It's just not an enjoyable experience for me. I'd happily see them rot away in the lower leagues for years and never have to share a football pitch and stadium with them again.

Can't see why any Newcastle fan would want them up personally like :lol:. It's normal to want a rival to do as worse as they realistically can.

 

They have kept their season alive, but it will still be fairly tough to make the top 6. You probably would expect them to win their next 2, but then again Norwich drew at home to Rotherham today, WBA drew at home to out of sorts QPR, after losing to Rotherham the other day, so they are not tied to win both matches, but even if they did, they probably would still have to get something away to WBA - there's just not much margin for error for them. If they did win 4 of their last 5 then, with their decent GD, they probably would get there, but then that would also be 5 wins from their last 6 matches and you'd have to say fair enough.

 

There's no outright odds up yet with Championship matches still ongoing, but they will still be significant outsiders at the bookies to make the top 6. As Newcastle fans, it just seems that it is aligning for them at this moment.
