Who will go down?

Wigan were superb against Everton yesterday, but like City against us Everton looked like they thought they could just turn up.

 

I doubt City will be as complacent again but you never know. Wigan seem to range from Woeful to Wonderful. it will be interesting to see whether the FA cup is an inspiration or a distraction to them.

 

Think Reading are down, they are defending poorly and have some very tough games. QPR have an easier run in but I don't think they can score enough. Villa are still all over the place but have the goals.

 

We need a point a game I reckon, we have 5 home games, 3 are winnable especially West Ham and Stoke who are two of the worst away teams around. We can beat West Brom at home as well, also Sunderland and Reading are beatable away.

 

Our hardest game is Spurs away, if we can bring out the Man City game levels we can cause problems against Chelsea and Liverpool.

 

QPR, Reading and Wigan for me.

 

Yes, this is a Good Shout

If we're out of the bottom 3 come Barry's birthday (1st April) then I think we'll be safe.

 

Winnable home games against West Brom, West Ham and Stoke. Swansea will have nothing to play for and Reading will be pretty much down by then. Sunderland away will be tough and Spurs more or less impossible. I would back us to match 2 of QPR/Wigan/Villa with those fixtures.

 

Quite frankly if we go down with a run in like that, we can not complain about luck or ref's decisions or any sort of nonsense. There must be 10 points out of that lot, with Liverpool and Chelsea being "bonus" games.

Just getting fed up of the constant negativity on this forum. Doing my head in. Was a much better forum when we were in the football league.

 

I'm sure the readers loved you posts then as well, they probably put alerts on their tablets and phones just to be assured of knowing when your next beaut was put onto the www.

It's funny. The same people moaning about how we are definitely doomed to the despair of relegation now, are the same people that were saying how awful the Premiership was at the start of the season.

 

Also, they are the ones that find the notion of challenging for Europe laughable, yet also say that we shouldn't expect to get beaten by the teams currently challenging for Europe.

 

But they are the most consistent posters on the forum.

Who says we shouldn't get beaten by the teams challenging for Europe?

That wasn't actually aimed at you Bazza.

 

It may well have been before you joined in November.

 

At the start of the season, when we had a tough run of fixtures (surely we can agree on that?), and some said "well, we were never really expected to get much away at City/Arsenal etc" - a group of posters went through a phase of not being able to make a post without sarcastically going on about "writing off games" etc.

Don't think I have ever said that. For people to prefer to read what I write rather than you it really doesn't have to be that great...

Agree about the Reading game - win that one and we should get enough points to be safe.

 

Reading, Wigan and QPR for me.

 

Reading are in freefall, Wigan could well get to Wembley and go down like Brighton in 83, QPR still have loads to do - could do with Villa beating them on Saturday

Villa and Reading are total shite. If we finish below both of them I'll eat my hat. If we finish below one of them I'll eat half my hat.

 

At least my hat is safe. Just. :scared: Didn't think we'd need goal difference to finish above Villa.
