    Depends how they react to the drubbing.

    Think Sunderland and Palace are doomed. Fulham could be the other one.

    It is early Days yet.....Although it is hard to argue a case for any of the current bottom 2.....Would be surprised if Norwich went down. Any body from West spam down could be the third in my opinion, although I expect fat Sam to turn them around.

    Stoke fans moaning that Hughes is worse than Pulis, so they will be chucking their hat in the ring as well it seems.

    Won't be far wrong. Norwich another possibility, but mustn't read too much into their drubbing...even ManU, Arsenal etc have had games like that. Even the Mighty Southampton :)

    Our next two home games to West Ham and Palace are the key to it.Fewer than three points and we are in trouble,four or more and,at least for the time being,we are out of it.

    On the positive side if we can beat Southampton then we should be able to beat both those.

    Doesnt work mate. We beat Liverpool but failed to beat Sunderland and Stoke. Think this season is going to be very tight all the way through. Sunderland and Palace may get cut adrift but lots of others wil be in the mix for that last spot.

    Is no one mentioning West Ham in the relegation battle? They've scored about 2 goals all season and didn't even play with a striker today!

    I predicted them to go down at the start of the season if that counts!

    I still think they are solid enough not to be in too much trouble. They might flirt with relegation for a while, but I think they'll pick up enough points over the course of the season. The only two teams that look like obvious candidates for the drop are Palace and Sunderland but then that's been obvious for a while. It will probably be a big scrap to avoid the other relegation place between about 6/8 other teams.

    Would love them to get dragged in but I think their sound defence will keep them above the drop zone sadly.

    West Ham won`t go down with Allardyce in charge. Palace, Sunderland and Fulham to go.

    We need to beat West Ham on Saturday.Quite bizarrely the bookies have them at 10/1 to go down.Our recent performances Citeh apart suggest that we could do it.If we don't I think Hughton may be history.

    10's is a big price but they havent let in many goals. Bookies are working on the basis that 2 spots are already filled.
