Got a feeling this will be another weekend where we have to panic a little bit again.  Can see QPR and Leicester winning mainly because West Ham don't seem to give a shit and Leicester are on a bit of a roll.  Hoping Hull and Sunderland get nothing but you never know the way this season's going.  Can't work out which is the best result for us in the Burnley game? Probably a draw.  Or we could just win our game and I won't care less about any of them.

Me too, I've got a nasty feeling about this weekend, in the same way I felt very positive about the Spurzzz game and the Cup semi.

Next season, I'm hoping not to be hoping Crystal Palace or Stoke will do us a favour.

...unless they're playing Chelsea/City/Arse

Like your thinking.

So other fixtures this weekend to be mindful of...

Burnley v Leicester
Newcastle v Swansea
QPR v West Ham
Stoke v Sunderland
WBA v Liverpool
Palace v Hull

...all those games kick off at 3pm so we'll know how much (or how little) damage has been done before we kick off at the Etihad.

240-1 Leeg, unlikely to be that good a day for us.

Not concerned about QPR as after West Ham they have Man. City and Liverpool consecutively away so they'll still be well adrift.

Hopefully they'll be a response from Palace losing last week as they were in good form previously, Hull could claim a draw though. They also have Liverpool at home in midweek.

Sunderland will lose at Stoke, pretty confident on that one.

Can't see Leicester winning four on the bounce, but can see other sides around us closing the gap.

32 points at the back end of April should always be cause for concern.

I think we'll stay up. It would seem very cruel now if we did plummet, after the recent upturn in form.

A point tomorrow and I'd fancy us to get at least one win between now and the end of the season, and that should do us.

Probably we will be back in it after the weekend, but  all we really need is a win and a draw to be most likely safe. Thats doable in our fixtures so I won't be panicking just yet.

Yeah no cause for panic but we must beat Everton to make sure that we don't slip into the bottom 3 and just have enough of a gap to stay just far enough away.

Has anyone considered the possibility that the shit teams will lose (Burnley QPR draw) and with a less games to play we may actually come out of the weekend in a better position even if we lose?

Yes, but we've had two brilliant (league) weekends out of something the past 3 played. Law of sod means that one of the set of games will go against us.

Bloody hell it might rain today as well. We're getting the rub of the green right at the best time. Embrace it you miserable people!
