Well all I can still only see are wins for everyone and us going down. until we're mathematically safe i can't relax or start thinking about the Cup final or next season. Hull WILL beat tottenham, Sunderland will turn Leicester over and Newcastle will draw at QPR and then beat West Ham. leicester will win their last game v QPR. Last game and Man U will not beat a fired up Hull and after finally succumbing 2 or 3-0 at Southampton an Danny Ings goal in the 78th minute will see us relegated. I can't see how any of that can't happen. Another nervous wait until 3pm next saturday.

I'll give it to you Peter, you're one miserable fella. You're like our very own Unlucky Alf. Every silver lining has a cloud...

That light at the end of the tunnel? just some fecker with a torch also looking for the way out...

Looking at QPR today I think you can just add three points to the Leicester and Newcastle tallies already.

And no thanks to caulker on this evidence please.

Caulker looks absolutely atrocious.

You'd think it might be Dicke Dunne who is the weak link in that backline now, factoring in his age.

But it's Caulker all the way.

Haven't both Cardiff and QPR each spent the best part of £10 million on him?

Lunacy.

He looked good at the start for Cardiff, what happened to him?



I rated him at Spurs and like you thought he looked good for Cardiff at the start. But Cardiff then QPR weren't good career moves.

I'm hoping Newcastle draw with QPR and lose to West Ham at Sid James Park, Hull lose to Spurs but beat the Plastics at home, sending the Barcodes down on goal difference.

I'll drink to that.

Big Sam to go and give the Gallowgate a warm round of applause at the end.

I can see us getting something at Southampton. No win in 4 games for them. Maybe they are also anxious to avoid the Europa league.

I was listening to the radio and that was a topic of discussion. How the Europa League is something to avoid now for teams. Amazing to think you work hard to do well in the league only to try and not to achieve a certain position to stay out of a competition. It really needs to go back to being a knock out cup tournament.
Looking at their last 6 results, anyone would think that it's more than just a coincidence they are both trying to avoid finishing in 6th place to avoid the curse of the Europa League...

would it really shock anyone if neither team gave a shit next week and both us and Hull won? What would be funny is if QPR now they have been relegated play without pressure and do Newcastle.

That would actually be hilarious, but it seems as though they are in as big a mess as Newcastle judging by the comments coming out of the QPR camp after their battering at City this afternoon. Hull are devoid of confidence and quality, so even an out of form Spurs will struggle to play badly enough not to win that one.

I don't know I think until the loss yesterday Hull were starting to look like they might be okay its quite a big ask now.  If they can beat Spurs then that might just do it, a lot depends on which Tottenham turn up.

Newcastle go down and we win the FA Cup. If Carlsberg did the last few games of a football season......

A lot of people are saying Sunderland took a big step to safety last weekend. I'm not sure

Hull (Spurs) villa (soton) and Newcastle (QPR) are playing what seem to be three of the least motivated, out of form sides around. Sunderland are playing Leicester.

Peter, you need to get down to Paddy Power and stick £20 on us to go down and they'll give you £1600 on the 24th May if you think all that's going to happen. That'd probably get you a couple of final tickets too.
Peter, don't listen to him. I agree completely, we're doomed.

As the politicians say, "I agree with Peter" - and Mike.

I can't cope any more.

I get the impression Dick Advocaat has a horseshoe up his arse. They will be ok.

Well that would explain the pained look on his face and the funny walk.....
