    Unfortunately he set his sights even lower than I gave him credit for, power and strength.

    Hughton didn't have an imaginatve bone in his body.

    So 6 points from the next two games will leave us on 38 and virtually guaranteed safety I'd imagine.

    So today we need:

    -Cardiff to lose at Newcastle
    -Stoke to beat Fulham
    -United to beat Sunderland
    -Hull to beat Villa
    -Everton to lose to Man City

    Then a point tomorrow means a win in the last game of the season against a safe Arsenal should secure our survival, hopefully at the expense of Villa.

    Easy.

    It's looking like we'll be down tomorrow if we lose.
    That's going to make for a horrible day against the gunners.

    Next weekend might only have the PL title race to be of any interest - just the way the powers that be and game broadcasters would want it.

    Not so sure Thai - the last day of the season to me has always been full of intrigue - unfortunately we're in the mix this year, but the race for Champion and the avoidance of the great plop drop surely must have a few more folk tuning in. I'm gutted to be where we are this season, but it's deserved. If, miracle of miracles and by the skin of the ball bag of which ever God we subscribe to kicks in for us in the next 45 mins, tomorrow and next weekend, we will be the luckiest bullet dodgers since the game began.

    I agree, I have always loved watching the relegation battle over the the other end of the league, although when Man City nicked the title in the last few minutes, when they beat QPR 3-2 was compelling viewing. However, I am sure the 'powers' would rather be talking all day about the top 4 teams, not Fulham, Cardiff and Norwich <ok>

    Aye that was some proper entertainment and my love for QPR just went into overdrive that day. A smashing game and not a movie I've ever seen serves up such drama.

    Really need United to do us a favour in these final 30 minutes or so!
