Would you take 2 wins and 5 losses? + Pardew's summer spending?

7 games left.

Would you take two home wins against Brum and WBA to take us to 45 pts? Or would you be unhappy with that.

I think we can do alot better than that, but i think 45pts will be more than enough to survive, and with all these injuries and suspensions, i think we've done incredibly well.

My honest predictions -

Villa 2-1 Toon
Toon 1-2 Man utd
Blackpool 3-2 Toon
Liverpool 3-1 Toon
Toon 3-1 Brum
Chelski 3-0 Toon
Toon 3-2 WBA

I think we could get draws vs Villa and Blackpool but i think they'll both beat us tbh.

Also is anyone else worried that, apart from supposed talks with Lille about Gervinho, Pardew is going to do an Arsenal and rely on the kids or sign loads of championship/league one wonders?

Thoughts? He's not a stupid man, but the fact that he was targetting the Southampton pair during the Jan transfer window

 

Wouldn't be too happy losing to Villa. I'd take 7 points from our remaining games (two wins and a draw) but I will be hoping for better.

Draw to Villa.
Lose to ManUre.
Draw to Blackpool.
Lose to Liverpool.
Beat Brum.
Lose to Chelsea.
Beat WBA.

My predictions. But with the way the season has gone, **** knows what will happen.

 

No would not be happy with just another 6 points out the season, we should be beating Villa, Blackpool, Brum & West Brom on current form. I'd hope us to have a real go at Liverpool and kick a certain striker up and down the park. I'd also hope we'd give a good account of ourselves against Man U & Chelski, on our day we can beat anyone, ask Villa & Makems.
On the other point, Pardew I think will invest wisely, there's so much talk of G Carr in Germany & Holland we'll prob see a couple of signings. And to be fair to him when he was looking at the Saints guys he had virtually zero budget to work with, he has some money to spend, obviously won't be £35Mill but he will be able to cast his net further afield now I think.

 

Win against Brum, Win against Brom but depends where they are in table on last day of season really.
Reckon we could sneak a draw against Villa, not entirely out of reach.
Manc not brilliant away from home. Tough one. I'd go for a loss probably, optimist in me says possibly nick' a draw.

Don't think a win against Blackpool is out of our reach either. We've been better away from home, they have a poor home record. Draw or a Toon win.

Liverpool Chelsea both losses.
So i'll go with...
3 wins - brom, brum, blackpool
1 draw - villa
3 losses - mancs scousers chelski

10 points!

 

Yes but Blackpool is a great team and Villa played brilliantly vs Eveton. Darren Bent looked lethal.

 

Not being funny but Villa lost at home to Wolves, and the fans have turned on them, Blackpool have the worst home record in the League so the answer is no I wouldn't, oh and we have done well on the road. I believe we will win 3-1 on Sunday and win 2-1 at Blackpool.

 

blackpools season started out good but they're in a downward spiral now. they're home form is poor and a win is entirely possible. as long as we dont **** it up.

 

i wish i had your optimism, but we've done **** against the teams we "should" beat.

Knowing us we'll lose vs Villa and Blackpool and beat Manure.

 

probably mate. thats the way the seasons going!
so, we'll predict losses against villa, blackpool, brom, brum, but wins against the mancs, scousers and chelsea. haha. wouldn't mind

 

We are bound to drop one of Villa, Blackpool, Birmingham and West Brom, and Man Utd are vulnerable away from home, so 10 points is a realistic amount for me.

 

Blackpool are on that slope, I can see us beating them. We have an advantage over Villa in that we've already given them a hiding this year. West Brom, we'll show them why we were top of the league last year, simple as.

 

I reckon 10pts is the minimum we'll get,we'll win all our home games and nick a draw/win away,I'll be looking forn 11 or 12pts.YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!

 

This ^^^

it's what we should be aiming for out of those fixtures.

 

Has no one been paying attention this season...

Villa 0 - 6 Toon
Toon 5 - 0 United (Colo lob for 5th)
Blackpool 3 - 0 Toon
Liverpool 0 - 3 Toon (Ameobi Hat-trick and Carrol double leg break)
Toon 1 - 3 Brum
Chelsea 0 - 1 Toon
Toon 0 - 2 WBA

Let's face things haven't exactly gone to form this season!

 

I think Draw with Villa and Liverpool
Lose to Man U and Chelsea
Beat Blackpool,Birmingham and West Bom

Giving us 11 points and a total of 50 points.

I reckon that this should be enough to give us a top ten finish

Happy days indeed.

 

Don't want to lose to Villa.
Would be fairly happy with 45 points but I'd like more and think we should be able to get more than just 2 wins

 

I actually wouldn't be suprised if everyone of these predictions comes true.

 

I think we'll do well, maybe draw vs Villa and I'm pretty sure we'll nab something vs Man Utd, for some reason I'm more confident about that than the Villa game. Blackpool, we really should win and I think we can nab something against Liverpool, purely to get one over Dalglish and Judas, maybe a cheeky 1-0 or something, then that would get us closer to 6th. That should get the lads buzzing then we can just start playing with gay abandon and blitz through the remaining 3 games and on to Europe!

Don't worry, I'll wake up in a minute.

There we go.

We'll have 3 amazing games and 4 ****e ones.

 

Can we recall Xisco from his loan move?

 

Just newspaper speculation they are always going to try and link him to players from his old club.
