I think Newcastle and Swansea will both do us a favour today. With West Brom , Swansea , and Burnley coming up im hoping for 6/7 points. But 4 points wouldn't be the end of the world. Will 35 points be enough? Next up West Brom and 3 points would be lovely.

The results and points totals will be updated as we go.

Lets take it one at a time.

 

Firstly, we need both Spurs and Newcastle to win today.

Probably be best if Villa win/draw on Tuesday (anything apart from a QPR win).

 

Which would mean next week, if we can get a draw at West Brom it'd be decent because Burnley play Arsenal, QPR play Chelsea and Sunderland play Palace (who are decent away from home)... Leaving us two points away from QPR and Burnley and possibly three off of Sunderland.

Rekon Sunderland are ****ed with their run in.

 

Will be interesting to see what happens with them today, if they loose twinned with the strange appointment of Advocaat i rekon they are gone handing a huge incentive to the current bottom 3.

I'm going to make a bold claim I'm almost certainly going to regret.

 

If it goes down to the final day, we stay up. QPR's wins have come against a dreadful Sunderland side and a WBA side who looked as though they know they're safe. I think they'd wilt in front of 32,000 City fans and a City performance like yesterday.

If it comes to the final 2 matches and we are 3 points off. I fancy us big time!

After their result yesterday, I've heard a lot of people saying QPR stand a great chance of staying up.

Well as far as I'm concerned, if they do then we do too. We are 3 points behind them and we still have to play them at home. We also have a much better fixture list in between.

I'm still not confident, because we need Sunderland and Hull to completely fall apart. But you know, it's not over just yet.

Today is huge.. If both Burnley and Sunderland win then it's very grim for us... I can see them both picking up a point each today, which keeps our hopes alive.. But only a flicker!

Posted

I make it that we'll need 14 points to stay up, 13 depending in goal difference. I think we can beat Burnley, Newcastle, QPR, West Brom, Swansea and Sunderland on our day, and possibly sneak a point against Southampton. That's 19 points we COULD get-leaving a couple of bad games leeway for us in my opinion, hopefully against Newcastle/Swansea so as we're not giving points to teams around us...

It's not over yet. :scarf:

I think Sunderland will be optimistic with their remaining home games.

 

Interestingly my Geordie mate told me that on each of the last two occasions that Sunderland have sacked a manager they've gone on to play Newcastle two games later and won 3-0. I reckon this one's a home banker.

One will lose and one will win I think.

 

Don't ask me which one!

i dont know why but i still think we are gone, please prove me wrong fellas

Hope Spurs and Newcastle keep our hopes very much alive after today's results!!

So in a nutshell, we need to be 2 points (at worst) behind QPR and Sunderland come the last game of the season to have a decent chance of finishing above them (as the QPR game is always going to be must win anyway, and Sunderland will not get anything at Chelsea).  So going off that, we are 1 point off where we need to be against QPR and 2 points off where we need to be V Sunderland.  That doesn't look so bad all of a sudden.

 

Looking at Hull, they have Man Utd last at home, again you'd "hope" that they will lose that one, so we need to be 2 points behind them come last game of the season also and we are 4 points off that.  

 

We really aren't as badly placed as it seems IF we can still be within 3 points of safety on the last day of the season.

Hull are in real trouble imo. And Sunderland if they lose today.

In some ways there's less pressure on us, Qpr and Burnley now. Also we have a few games against teams with very little to play for now

Disagree with villa beating qpr,villa are in a dog fight and ild rather qpr won and we were 6 points behind both with 2 games in hand than 9 points behind villa and 3 behind qpr with 2 games in hand on both,I want a qpr win,it's no good hoping they lose if 4th bottom gain more ground on us,

Last week it was any 3 of 4 to go down with us looking nailed on,after yestaday it's any 3 of 7 now.
