Cardiff have way more potential to be next season's Huddersfield than Burnley do, so if they could stay up it would be nice.
That doesn't surprise me. Particularly because one of Burnley's games before the final four is...Cardiff.
100%. In fact, I wouldn't say just potential. I'd say it's nailed on, should Cardiff survive. Burnley would absolutely be my preference to go down this season.
Huddersfield could be mathematically relegated next time out. Although it would require us and Burnley to both win.
What a thoroughly pleasant day! Can't even begrudge pompey the 3 pts. (Oh, bit annoying there from Toon)
Couldn't give a monkies that Newcastle have equalised. They're never going down under Rafa. Burnley was always the key game today.
Had Newcastle lost it couldn't have gone much better today, but their late qualiser doesn't really matter, they don't look like being in serious trouble anyway. Burnley however...losing at home despite having a man advantage for pretty much the entire game is a big result. Great for us (and Cardiff), big disappointment for them.
Although 3 teams have to go down , apart from the fact I don't want one of them to be us , I don't want any of the bottom 3 to go down . I want to stay up , and for Norwich to join us next season .
I did feel for Huddersfield...they are certain to go down, so I wouldn't begrudge them a good result. Losing from 3-1 up is a killer.
I like how we are already thinking of which 3 will be worse than us next year. I don't fancy Leeds to go up this year and also hope they don't but if Norwich and Sheff Utd do go up I would be reasonably confident we could finish above them should we survive.
After the lameness of the last two seasons, I'm actually enjoying it. A little stressful when rivals pull one out of the bag, but love seeing our players step up and fight for a result. Good times indeed.
I take nothing for granted. Still think lady luck wants to punch me in the face before the season ends................but its most certainly in our hands now.
Crouch looking for handball..................and getting nothing. Good. Hope that result stings and lingers.
Survive this season and I confidently predict that we will be better than at least 8 teams next season.
