    Crunch time. Cast your predictions.

    Sunderland v Swansea - Draw
    Palace v City - Away Win
    Swansea v West Brom - Draw
    City v Spurs - Draw

    Sunderland home support will ensure at least a draw for the Black Cats.

    Palace have switched off. This is a good time to play them - hopefully. He who dares wins!

    Tony Pulis is trying to prove how poor West Brom have become. One win in nine matches will do little to boost their summer season ticket sales. They have to do better. A draw or more at Swansea is not impossible.

    The big one. Holding Spurs to a draw would normally be a tall order but if everything goes according to plan the away team will have nothing to play for. Spurs away game at Leicester a few days prior to this match (Thursday) will do nothing for their energy levels.

    Total Points: Hull City 38, Swansea 37. Goodbye Swansea.

    A stroll in the park.

    Sunderland v Swansea - Away Win
    Palace v City - Home Win
    Swansea v West Brom - Home Win
    City v Spurs - Away Win

    We're fooked - the players let it slip through their fingers last week. The momentum is now all Swansea. It'll be bloody hard in the Championship next season too with no manager and the squad we'll have left.

    I think Swansea will win both of the 2 games they have remaining. We're gone, blew it on Saturday.

    Sunlan 2 - 1 Swansea
    Palace 0 - 0 Hull City (including a contentious goal disallowed / penalty not given that people will spend the entire ****ing summer whinging about)
    Swansea 2 - 0 WBA
    Hull City 1 - 1 Spurs

    We'll go into the last day clinging onto hope but it'll kill us.

    If Reading go up and Bratfud come up then half the bloody games will be Yorkshire derbies.

    Think I make it 8 teams if that happens, mental.

    And then you've got other close games like Sunlan, Bolton, Derby, Forest, Burton...

    This week is almost identical to last week

    If we'd have beaten Sunderland I think Swansea would have cracked against Everton

    This week it is Swansea who play first - I fear they will handle the pressure better than us....

    That would be the tony pulis who has wba in eighth place on 45 points.
    I'm pretty sure if he had a foreign name and had that squad in eighth posters would be ****ing over him.

    This is it: the main worry. At least Boro and Sunlun go down with an actual squad to work with.

    Judging by this season, when will the board sanction the signing of new players and even a new manager? August deadline day?

    Wouldn't be a massive surprise (to me at least) to start next season with Jon Beale as Caretaker Manager.

    Sunlun 1 Swansea 3 (Sunlun relax after proving their point against us, or summat)
    Palace 1 City 0 (filled with endeavour, referee against us throughout, deflected goal or penalty

    End of sturey.

    But, we'll get something against Spurs when it's futile. The crowd will sing "We want you to stay" to Marco. But he'll bugger off anyway.

    Nail on head. Every time he gets an impossible new job all so called experts say "well, that's the end of his non-relegation record" and every time he turns it around. Do people remember the mess WBA were in when he took over? He did a much better job there than Silva has for us yet gets nothing like the credit.

    I've just had a look at his squad. It makes the job he's done even more outstanding.
    Kinell I've never heard of half of them.
    Though they do have a Rakeem Harper and a Rekeem Harper on the books which is superb

    Sunderland 1 Swansea 1
    Palace 3 City 1
    Faint glimmer of hope going into the last game
    Swansea 1 West Brom 2
    City 1 Spurs 1
    Aarghhh...Hope kills us, walk away knowing that we could have stayed up if only...(include moment of choice from this game or season)




    I've not wavering in my firm belief that we'd go down anyway, even when we climbed out briefly

    If we had Silva's points per game for a full season, we'd currently be above West Brom.

    Sunderland v Swansea - Away Win
    Palace v City - Away Win
    Swansea v West Brom - Draw
    City v Spurs - Lose

    The real fear is going down with the thread bare squad that we have......and likely in search of a new manager.
