Unlike our Liverpool friend, I can't see Sean having the decency to show his face. Comes across as one of those types of posters.
I still stick to my original prediction of Villa/QPR/Reading although Sunderland seem to be doing all they can to crash the party.
I originally went for Villa/QPR/Reading when this thread started, but now I am leaning towards Sunderland for the 3rd spot.
Us (Sunderland) with the current bottom 2. To answer the op Unless the new manager has a green patch to begin with
I feel for your lot, as it's quite hard to place exactly what has gone wrong. Anyway, good luck...as long as it isn't at our expense!
£30m we've spent this season. We shouldn't be anywhere near the relegation zone. Thanks hopefully our new manager can have the same effect as Pocchetini (however you spell it lol) has had for you
I had us down for: Reading - WIN West Ham - WIN West Brom - DRAW Swansea - LOSE Tottenham - LOSE Sunderland - WIN Stoke - DRAW
I actually went back through this twice to see if I could make Reading have a more valiant effort at survival...but I just can't see many points for them. We are probably their best chance of a win. (hmm...comes up pathetically small, but you can read it if you click on it) Not sure how, but i've got Fulham having an absolute nightmare in the run-in. Better not give up the day job yet!
If West Ham finished above Saints in that predictor (and they haven't for me) I would have had to go back and correct it. I want us to be safe but above West Ham would be soooo much a bonus p.s. they've already got 1 more win (today) than I predicted for the rest of this season ....doh
If our last trip to the North-West is anything to go by then you could be right! I'm so glad that our goal difference is looking so much healthier now, definitely an extra point tacked on for us there!
Ran the fixtures predictor and have quite the final day battle...Reading/QPR/Villa going down, West Ham and Sunderland staying up on goal differential: please log in to view this image
I did the predictor and couldn't figure out how to get the table as an image. But somehow I had us finishing 9th, despite predicting defeats against Sunderland and Spurs. I had Villa, QPR and Reading going down.
