    I ask the obvious question as we could be implicated, but I'm still convinced we will stay up, but the interesting point is that Fulham seem to be on the move, and have one of the easiest on paper last 5 games, while Sunderland who have games in hand have a nightmare of the next 4 games, and so do Norwich too after playing Fulham. If Norwich fail to beat Fulham, then I think they could well swap places with them, and make up the final three with Cardiff and Sunderland who I think have had it, anyway over to you, but my final three are still Fulham, Cardiff, and Sunderland, as long as Norwich do not lose to Fulham next week.

    One or 5 points clear of the drop won't make a lot of difference now but be prepared for a backlash after this season's over , Laudrup will want his money ,Jenkins won't want to give it up easily , a manger to be appointed (again) and theres the small matter of who we keep and who goes , interesting & for some, potentially embarrassing times ahead .

    If Norwich slip up next week that is a very likely outcome Glam, Sunderland have potentially just 2 or 3 winnable games, which includes playing us on the last day of the season? which is not enough points for them in my view, as for Cardiff well they have a clueless manager who doesn't know his best players, not sure what to make of WBA, but they have to play Spurs, Man City, West Ham, and Arsenal before getting to Sunderland and Stoke on the final day!..........<ok>

    Swansea. 38
    Norwich. 36

    Sunderland. 33
    Fulham. 33
    Cardiff. 30

    Too close for me but this is really I think.

    Shocked that they choose to sack Hughton this close to the end!

    My gut feeling is that the current bottom 3 will be the ones to go down.

    Thats a pointless exercise sacking Hughton now so close to season end.

    Maybe with so few games left , the Norwich hierarchy are hoping for that "Honeymoon period " under a new manager will see them through.

    Maybe they didn't want the remaining fixtures to end pointless

    With the last four games they have, I'm sure these will be pointless for them.

    Well it's s**t or bust for them and why not , Houghton wasn't getting any response from the players and results at home and playing as badly as they have been would have meant him going in the summer any way .Neil Warnock anyone ?

    "What the hell has happened to you lot?"

    Where to begin. Now let me see...

    ... Europa League;too many games; too much intercontinental travelling; lack of sleep;too many hours sat listening to garbage music via headphones;massive injury list; bent referees; bent linesmen; sun coming out against Crystal Palace; opponents outscoring us,(very unfair); global warming; privatisation of Royal Mail; gay marriages being legalised; Russia taking over The Crimea; Bruce Forsyth leaving Strictly,etc.,etc.,etc.

    So,I'm not one for making excuses,but it's been a **** of a season.
