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.
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.
Sun'lan 1 Swansea 1 Palace 1 Hull 2 Swansea 1 WBA 1 Hull1 Spurs 0 Man Utd 1 Palace 1 I really feel positive about this weekend, not since the opening weekend win v Leicester.
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.
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
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.
