City wins; positioning to play for, but the top four all but officially carved in stone.

Six in the mix in the basement, hard to believe that is where the doomsayers said that we would be, how wrong they were, let's be thankful for what we have got.
 
I've just been studying next weekend's fixtures down the bottom. Even if Hull and Leicester both lose their tricky looking games in hand beforehand, I can't help but think that it's perfectly possible that Newcastle could "officially" be part of the relegation battle in seven days time.

If they lose away to Leicester (totally possible, almost a certainty in fact), Villa win at home to Everton (possible) and Sunderland beat us at home (possible), then the four of them (including Leicester) will all be neck and neck immediately above the relegation zone - with Hull having the chance to re-close the gap, making it five sides bunched right together and really dragging Newcastle down into it, on the Monday night (albeit vs Arsenal).
 
If I was in charge of Newcastle I'd bring a big name in for the next four games... Now! Tough on Carver, but they need to win a game in the next four and they don't look like doing it.
 
Well I don't feel as bad about Everton sneaking a win against us as I did. Man U haven't been bad, but they just leak stupid goals.
