Beat Stoke and you'll stay up

I'll go out on a limb and say it, I really can't see Bolton winning another game all season.

WBA will want to end the season on a high and give Hodgson a good send off, I think they will beat Bolton 2-1 and get a 1-1 draw with Arsenal on the last day.

It's in your hands now. Just beat Stoke who are half way to Magaluf

 

PLEASE be right!!

 

Don't agree. Bolton had an off night but they picked up 4 points on the road in the previous 2 games.

 

In all of Bolton's last 3 games they have been comprehensively outplayed. I can't quite remember seeing a team get as battered as they did when they took on Swansea at home, Sunderland battered them 2nd half as well.

If Stoke and WBA turn up and show the commitment we have come to expect of them under current management, Bolton won't win.

 

I agree with DL, if we win on Sunday we have a very good chance staying in the PL. Many thought Bolton would do Spurs and easily collect the missing point in the remaining games - it has become a little more difficult for them now. It is up to us now...

 

That's a big call but we really need WBA to do us a favour on Sunday. If Bolton win that game, we're not safe.

 

At least for now it is in our hands and not theirs as it was earlier this evening.

 

this is very true. Last thing we want to do is go into the game expecting a win.

 

I tend to agree DL except Bolton are the single luckiest team in the league. Hopefully West Brom will be playing for Hodgson but they wouldn't be the first team to not give a **** knowing the manager is off. Likewise I hope Stoke will want to get Bolton back for thumping them 5-0 but they have a habit of rolling over. I still make them slight favourites.

 

I do too...but WBA are good away from home!!

 

I agree, Bolton have to be considered favourites because they don't have City away in the run in.

From the feedback we've seen of Hodgson from the WBA players, they don't look like the kind of team that will roll over, I think they'll give it their all plus they have the fresher legs. Bolton were run ragged by Spurs and in all truth look like a team that has run out of ideas.

WBA are a better team away from home anyway and Stoke are better at home.

 

I though Bolton played very well tonight, but luckily for once for us, they met a Spurs team at their very best - it took top quality goals to beat them. Only hope it tired Bolton out and they cannot produce that level of play again at the weekend!

 

Stoke fan it seem's we have a massive say in who stays and who goes down..

I would love to get something from the game on Sun

day as the fans wanted a top 10 finish this season.. that will depend on other teams around us and tbh we let Wigan off the hook last game last season.

If you win on Sunday good luck fellas, I ONLY HOPE that we can beat Bolton and IF our lads are up for it, I think we will.

Either way good luck to QPR I'm not expecting too much this weekend and DL is right. We are **** usually away but usually very good at home.

 

Disagree. Thought they lacked any ideas in the first half, had a very good 15 min spell after half then looked unlikely to score again after that. They played well for 15mins of the 90.

I think they will probably luck out against West Brom but fingers crossed

 

Cheers. I heard Stoke fans are boycotting the game. Prices?

 

Isn't it the case that if WBA win on Saturday and we win against Stoke (yes I know two VERY BIG IFS) then we are safe, period??!!

 

Assuming City don't smash us 10-0.

 

Spot on DL. Swansea murdered them then Sunderland ditto. Amazingly they had a chance to win both with a chance in the last minute but thankfully didn't score.
