Blackpool to lose at Man U, Spurs to do Blues. Other results to go our way. Adios Holloway and the noses.

Post by: The Walshmeister on May 15, 2011, 06:31:08 PM
After todays results I truly think Blose will go. If Blackpool lose by less goals than Blose the the shit are down....I think Blose could easily get beat by 3 down at spuds....

Post by: TaxDodger on May 15, 2011, 06:31:27 PM
Draw at Wolves and the rest will lose. Birmingham will lose 3-0 the others will lose 1-0. So they'll go down on goal difference :)

I really think it'll be SHA and Blackpool, which will make me really happy, to be truthful. I can't stand Holloway.

Blues and Blackpool for me.  I think they'll both lose and Wigan will get a result at a jaded Stoke.

I've gone for the shit and Wigan.

think blose may survive by default. can't see them getting anything from spurs, but blackpool will get beat at the mancs, and i fear stoke will do for wigan

Post by: avfcpg on May 15, 2011, 06:39:22 PM
Blackpool will get nowt at Man Yoo.
Stoke are injury crisis mode, nothing to play for, on a downer...I can see Wigan getting something.
Can't see Blose getting anything...have your cup and fuck off

Post by: TopDeck113 on May 15, 2011, 06:40:01 PM
I want Blackpool to survive, simply because I've got good friends who follow them.  As it is, I'll reckon they'll get a draw at Old Trafford. 

Spurs will beat Blues. 

Stoke and Wigan will be a draw. 

Wolves and Blackburn will draw.

Wigan and Blues down.

My body will be watching us beat the 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' next week. My heart will be with Tottenham and Wigan.
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: Brend'Watkins on May 15, 2011, 06:43:32 PM
I can see Wigan losing by the odd goal, Blackpool by 1 or 2 and blues by 3 or more even though they will have Ridgewell and Gardner back.  Wolves are safe and deserve to be.

So that's Wigan on GD or an inferior number of Goals scored with Blues for the drop.
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...

Not sure who I despise the most, Holloway or Dave Whelan.

Ah, what the hell.  Blues and Blackpool please.

Wolves to beat Blackburn,

Man Utd to beat Blackpool,

Blackpool and Small Heath for me.

I like Blackpool, can't stand Holloway and wouldn't mind Adam. Be cheaper now than in the winter. Nailed on Spurs signing I reckon though.

Post by: curiousorange on May 15, 2011, 06:55:02 PM
I think Blackburn, Wolves and the Blues were banking on there only being one place left to fill at the end of this weekend. Blackburn aside, I'd like to see all of the remaining teams go down so to watch two of them bite the big'un from a safe distance feels very, very sweet.
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: Louzie0 on May 15, 2011, 06:56:07 PM
I've gone for Blackburn with Blues because I reckon Wigan and Wolves have more fighting spirit.  Look at Wigan today and Wolves whenever.  - and I think Blackpool will get something at OT.

Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: PaulTheVillan on May 15, 2011, 06:57:27 PM
Man Utd 1-0 Blackpool
Spurs 3-0 Blues
Stoke 2-1 Wigan

Blues & Wigan to go by a goal.

lolololololololol

It's quite likely that GD could be level. I assume it's goals scored then, in which case Blose are in real strife...shame

It's Blose and anyone.

HOpe it's not Blackpool, but whatever will be, will be.
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: Breezeblock on May 15, 2011, 07:16:39 PM
I'd like Wigan and Blackburn to stay up simply because they are both really good away trips. The dingles have never done me any harm and I like Mick McCarthy so that just leaves Blackpool to go down with the filth from Small Heath.  Jobs a good 'un!
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: curiousorange on May 15, 2011, 07:28:30 PM
I don't work with any Blackpool, Blackburn or Wigan fans. So the choice of who I want to go is extraordinarily easy.
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...

Yes, that is what I would like to see but what do you really think will happen?

It would be poetic if they go down in this way as they've been the most boring and unimaginative bunch of cloggers in this league since they came back up.

Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: curiousorange on May 15, 2011, 07:38:51 PM
Regretfully I think Wolves have enough spirit to see off Blackburn. I think Blackpool will get stuffed, Wigan will beat Sturk and Blues, hilariously, will lose 1-0. Hopefully in the dying moments of a poor game.

The Mrs chose Blackburn and Wigan and knows next to shag all about football.
So put your house on Wigan and Blackburn going down.

so,next weekend
The Rags could lose and be relegated
The Rags could draw and be relegated
The Rags could win and still be relegated

Fuck me, football does not get much better than this !!

I'd love them to go down in any way but to go down on goals scored would be even funnier.
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: nick harper on May 15, 2011, 09:31:23 PM
Sadly I think Blues will do just enough. Blackpool and Wigan to go.
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: Blackcountry Villa on May 15, 2011, 09:34:35 PM
Blues won't get anything, Spurs need to win and will want to finish on a high in front of their own fans. I think Blackpool will lose but if they lose by 1 less than Blues then Blues will go down on goals scored. I think Wigan will get a point at least, they're playing well and fighting for everything.
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: gervilla on May 15, 2011, 09:35:41 PM
Blackburn and The Shit would be my preferred options.
To be honest , as long as The Shit go down I'll be happy.

BBC Predictor:

Man Ure 2-1 Blackpool
Stoke 1-3 Wigan
Tottingham 3-1 Small Heath
Wolves 3-2 Blackburn

That gives:

Wolves       43
Wigan        42
Blackburn    40
_____________
Blackpool     39
Small Heath  39
Wet Spam   34

Tottingham will want that 5th place, we might just give it to them via a loss to Liverpool. Wolves and Blackburn may just play for a draw.

Either way Small Heath need to win. But if they go down do they cry this time having secured Europe and a cup?
Title: Re: Choose 2 from 5...
Post by: Hookeysmith on May 16, 2011, 07:43:57 AM
It will be poeatic justice if they go down by not scoring enough goals - they have been almost anti football ever since they came up - grinding out results and being just shit stink in the prem

hope they have gone for good - and that hong kong fooey throws his toys out

Post by: andyh on May 16, 2011, 12:41:19 PM
So, because we are playin Liverpool who are the main rivals to Spurs getting into Europe, we can direclty effect the Rags' chances of staying up or going down.

Fucking Hell...it just keeps getting better.

Post by: not3bad on May 16, 2011, 12:52:02 PM
Man Utd 0 Blackpool 0
Stoke 2 Wigan 1
Tottenham 2 Birmingham 0
Wolverhampton 1 Blackburn 1

Small Heath and Wigan get relegated.  A reporter suggests to Ian Holloway that Man Utd might not have been as 'up for it' as normal and Holloway's head explodes like that scene from Scanners.

I think Blackburn and Wolves will be OK.  I reckon Blackpool and Blues will lose and Wigan will get something at Stoke, so Blues and Blackpool down. Buy a bucket and spade for the Bluenoses you know for the trips to Blackpool, Brighton and Bournemouth.

I do not think that Blackpool, Wigan or Blose will win. I think that Blackpool will lose, Blose will lose and Wigan will lose or maybe get a draw. I believe it will come down to the margin of defeat and I think that will relegate Blackpool and Blose. If Wigan do lose I see it being by the odd goal. I think Manure (reserves or not) and Spuds will both win by more than 2 goals.

I remember being at Highbury when we won the League ....never listened to a radio for about 75 minutes at a game before rather than watch the game ....think will be like this on Sunday ....although can just picture the scene when Young is taking a throw in on the half way line and the Holte just erupts ...... yes another goal against Small Health !! How many times will that happen lol

Small Health and Blackpool

Wigan will get at least a point at Stoke , SHA and Blackpool will lose. Its looking like a perfect Sunday. It is a shame that we have a game and I have to be at Villa Park instead of watching the drama unfold.
and oh I am sure we will beat Lpool as their  desperate attempt to finish fifth falters.

Then there seems to be a bung investigation at Blackburn.

Post by: supertom on May 17, 2011, 09:17:39 PM
I have a soft spot for Wolves cause Steve Bull was my first pro card and I liked their kit and the little wolf head on the badge. I almost supported that lot back as a kid, but made the right choice. That aside, I do like Mick McCarthy. So if they stay up I'm not fussed.

As for the rest, well, they're bobbins and all deserve to be where they are. Blue Noses is a given. They simply must go down to thus erradicate any possible feelings of smugness after their win in the two bob cup.

I do think the bottom 3 will stay as is though.

Good to see Stoke are on holiday already judging by tonight's performance (and team selection to be fair).  Wigan will be fighting for the lives and will get a result there on Sunday.  Blues will roll over and get absolutely shafted by Spurs and for what it's worth I reckon ManYoo's kids will run riot with Blackpool too. 

There are always some crazy scorelines on the last day of the season and I reckon Blues could be this year's!!!

Happily we aren't involved but come 4 o'clock two of five teams will be relegated.

So which two would you prefer to go down and which two do you expect to be relegated.

For me like most everyone, I'd guess, top of my wants is Blues. Then its a choice between Blackpool and Blackburn, one because I can't stand their manager, the other I don't like their board. So for me I want Blues and blackburn gone.

I do think however, Wigan and Blackpool will be todays losers.

wigan and blackpool for me as it is they are the two worst teams.

i have wigan to win and still go down @ 66/1
and birmingham to win and still go down @100/1 as that would be sweet

though blose so unlikely to score let alone win.
