In my despair over yesterdays result I started to look at the points other teams may get from now to end of the season. I have not included Fulham or Cardiff because I think they have had it any way. So, judging City will,at worst will get 7 points from the remaining games = 37 points and calculating that Sunderland get 13, West Brom=10, Palace=5,Norwich= 8 (These calculations are made because of my great knowledge of the game and my unequalled football experience) you can all sleep at night because Hull City AFC are in the premiership next season Ps I am not here for the next few days for safety sake.
Fulham and Cardiff both need to win three more games than us in the final ten fixtures. The only real worry is the other place. Our lofty league position is deceptive. The month of March is the biggest in our history- we can clinch safety against WHU, WBA and Sjoke as well as go to Wembley by beating Poyet's Pussycats.
Have you seen Norwich's run in? They really need to put a good run together soon, because they don't want to be needing points in the last 4 games Liverpool (H) Man Utd (A) Chelsea (H) Arsenal (A) Luckily for them the games between now and then look winnable. Though, so did Villa today.
With no league game next week then man city the week after then teams could become a bit closer to us however the period when we play West brom, west ham, Stoke and Swansea will hopefully be a time to take our points that will go a long way to make us safe
Actually it is Chelsea away and Arsenal home. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Even Norwich fans think they are doing down due to the end of the season games. Norwich home to Stoke this saturday and Sunderland dont play another PL game until saturday 15th march @ home to Crystal Palace. I think that we shall be safe come 5pm on the 29th march after our game @ Stoke City. But nevermind looking down we should be going for 10th spot and why not ?? Very possible imo.
Our league position is deceptive. As Steve Bruce has said, no club has yet been cast adrift at the foot of the table. Main thing is our 6 points + goal difference above 18th place.
