the trouble with Wolves and Wigan is that, just when you've written them off, they pull out a mad result.

This is what worries me.

Wigan, Wolves and West Ham, despite being in erratic form, are occasionally showing the sort of resolve and spirit that we don't seem to show frequently enough.

Although I agree in principal, they could look at our results against Man Utd and Man City at home and disagree.  The wins against those three now also look like they'll be significant come May. 

Man City was a gritty performance, that's true, but Man United was a win turned into a draw, and was three months ago now in any case.

It worries me a bit when West Ham manage to claw themselves back from 3 goals down away from home, and Wigan go to Anfield and get a point, having gone a goal down. I wonder if we have that spirit now, through to the end of the season.

Chelsea?

Just done the BBC predictor thing... we will finish 11th on 45 points.

Small Heath finish 7th on 51 points

Relegated = West Brom, Wigan and Blackburn

Agree with the first bit as a quite likely result.

The final bit is also probably not too far from what will happen.

I'm not even going to contemplate the middle bit!!

In other news, the price of hallucinogenic drugs continues to plummet.

Small Heath are the lowest scorers in the league, which makes it quite shocking that they’re as high as they are in the league at the moment.

This league is shite.

Stoke have lost their last 5 away and still remain comfortably in 9th.

I still reckon we'll finish up with 48 or 49 points and finish 9th or 10th, similar to MON's first season.
