    well roll on Satdee.
    we can either pull away from the relegation fodder.
    OR you can start your fightback.

    Yeah, if either of us win, it will be a massive result. A draw won't help either of us though - we'll still be adrift and you have some very tough fixtures coming up.

    We all have difficult run ins mate, but if you mean us then we're likely to be in good company.

    You keep mentioning this difficult run in we have, I really don't see it being an issue. We went to Arsenal and came away with a point (were it not for a late equaliser it'd have been all three), got a well deserved point and clean sheet at Anfield and came within 90 seconds of beating the Champions a few weeks back on their own turf. It's not like we've been hammered this season by anybody and now we have a fully fit squad to choose from, we can be far more optimistic.

    If we beat you, Palace and Burnley and get something against Swansea and maybe a cheeky point here and there, we will be fine. I'd be more worried about your run in and knowing that if you don't beat these teams around you, you'll be in more trouble than you already are.

    If/when we go down I´m just hoping we can keep the squad together as much as pos. I think he´ll be off, but Mahrez for i.e, would be fantastic in the champ´ship. I think we´d need to do something with our DEF to prep it for an immediate return to the prem & maybe an addition here & an addition there but apart from that...

    This in must win for us and a must not lose for Hull

    They have a little cusion that they will need come the final run in else they will do what Norwich did last season

    We have an easier run on paper but we have to make up a lot of points on the other teams. Plus its the lower sides we have struggled against this season

    Don't get me wrong, I am worried. We have to start winning, and we have to start on Saturday. I think if we lose it's virtually game over - that's how big a game it is.

    As I said previously about Hull, if you beat us and Burnley, you'll be fine. If you don't, you'll be in trouble. It's a massive game for both sides.

    It depends on how we set up, Brucey has been guilty a few times of setting up a team to draw. It seemed to work against Man City, but I suspect that's because they were expecting a totally different team and couldn't adapt. If we play our strongest side and we play like we have been doing these past few weeks (minus the errors letting in cheap goals), we will win. If we set up with no strikers on the field, you'll do us.

    It's a massive game, you're right, but I can't help but feel like we aren't going to win it. I'd happily take a point now and focus on the remaining games.

    Not if we play like we have. The middle of the pitch is owned by Cambiasso. He has made Ozil and Toure look poor in recent weeks

    Kramaric has been showing his class, he just don't get the lucky breaks falling for us

    it's a massive game for you!
    I'd go as far as to say: it's a must win.
    we've got a healthy gap above the chumpionship bound fodder.

    But I quite remember how it goes.

    even if you DO win, you'll still be bottom.

    "Hull hath no fury like a Patty scorned" ... get over it Patty ... Nigel found a new love and moved on ... you should too ... the grass isn't always greener on the other side as Nige is finding out ... his bromance with Big Wes may cost us dear ...

    when it comes to managers, I'd rather have Steve Bruce instead of Mr Charisma Pearson.
    HOPEFULLY all those from Lesster aren't all as dour as him.

    I think this is the first time the 3 that came up are going right back down.

    ... hmmm you might be a wiz at particle physics Sheldon, but your Geography, Biology and Sociology all need some polishing ... Nigel Pearson is not a native of Leicester m'duck (he was born on the dark side - Nottingham) ... it would also seem unlikely that supporters of a particular club would 'morph' into the characteristics of the then club manager ... interesting as it would be ... Arsenal's fans would all have a certain gallic flair whilst Chelsea's fans would, en masse, start speaking better English than you usually find from them <whistle> ...
