I never really believed until now that being named Manager of the Month was a curse...

Albion down and hopefully we won't be playing against them ever again.

So The Bitters are finally dispatched. GTFI!

Now let's make the job complete by joining the Dogheads next season.

Which outfit will this lamentable bunch of bumpkins be wearing tomorrow? They stand in front of the mirror every morning deciding whether to pull on the ‘plucky underdogs’ suit or the ‘big hitting traditionalists’ blazer. Football’s chameleons and comedians rolled into one, I absolutely abhor them and will sleep soundly tonight and throughout the summer*

I never usually agree with singing about them and giving them any attention but I shall be giving 'Fuck the Albion' a good airing at Boro on Saturday.

I was hoping Swansea would win, as Southampton fans came across as extremely arrogant when I went to St Mary’s.

Swansea down unless they beat Stoke and Huddersfield lose to both Chelsea and Arsenal.

Huddersfield still 11/4 to go down, good value that. I think they're doomed.

Serves the Bitters right for putting those posters on the M6 advertising the only Premier League football in the area was at the Yawnthorns .Stoke and Albion both relegated lovely

To be honest, I have no preference as to who goes down now. I hate Swansea for thinking they were the new Barcelona, I hate Southampton because they somehow mistook getting a decent core of players for once as some kind of epoch-shaking key to the kingdom, and Huddersfield can do one for the mouthy twats who gave it the big'un because it was their turn to be the team whose lottery numbers kept being picked all last season.

Not sure, I could see them getting a point at home to Arsenal. They've lost every single away game this year, and might settle for a point to avoid any extra embarrassment.

Man United couldn't beat Smethwick in Ferguson's last game and they were far better than Arsenal. They could win, but I'd be far from surprised if Huddersfield managed at least a point at home to a team that always loses their away games.

Didn't want Southampton going down, think they'd bounce back similar to Newcastle as that squad is not relegation bad.

If the worst happens then Huddersfield or Swansea coming down dosen't look too bad. Huddersfield will lose Wagner and they massively overachieved getting promoted last season.

Swansea squad is pretty average.

What worries me is Stoke and Albion being relegated, and Middlesbrough in the play offs. Pulis getting promoted as his old teams go down seems to have some sort of inevitability about it.
