    Play to win the last 2 games, nothing less. I want 41 points and some resounding home victories to finish off the season. We owe the Baggies a thumping, and Swansea for that matter.

    Why anyone would want anything less is beyond me....

    I would be happy with a draw tonight as it keeps us guaranteed safety - but I want to win - I don't want the sides to do what Coventry and Bristol City did

    As has been said, I'd be embarrassed. Confident it won't happen though given Poyet's comments.

    Was another major part of the Jimmy Hill scandal that he delayed the start of the second half (or was it the kick off)so they knew the result of the Sunderland game and could play out for the draw?

    this was part a) ^

    part b) was the fact that he was chairman of the adjudication panel which decided the punishment. Hence no points deduction.

    Yeh but lets see how frenetic it gets if it's still 0:0 after 80 minutes. I can see things winding down.

    Just so long as it's not from the first minute.
