Arsenal W (HA! HA!)
West Ham United W

Just need to win the last two and hope that results for Watford and West Ham go our way. Not going to happen, is it?

We haven't a sinner's chance in hell of winning these last 2.

I said 4 points from the final 4 before the Palace game and I'm sticking to it. We've got all our points now, we'll be beaten twice and go down like we deserve to.

This team and this manager are simply not good enough.

We are still in it but I don’t fancy our chances.

In ten days you'll regret not calling it Triumphant Two. ;)

Depends on what happens tomorrow night.  I think the best scenario would be West Ham beating Watford, given the latter's last two fixtures.  4 points from the last two might just be enough in that scenario.

A draw tomorrow night would be the worst result for us S we woukd then need to win both games.

I think both teams will settle for a draw. The risk reward ratio says do not lose, if they are still level after 70 minutes I don’t se either team being hung ho.

If Arsenal get turned over by City in the semi final then we can beat them, as for West Ham we can beat them, I still think we can pull off the "great escape" (all we need is Steve McQueen)

Keep the faith - we are still in there fighting!

Draw or narrow late defeat on Tuesday and last day is pretty much academic.

Arsenal put one inn their own net in the 90th minute (because we are unable to) and we go to WHU full of hope.


We lose 10-0 in a new Prem record and go down in proper fashion

Well I said we'd beat Palace, draw with Everton and beat Arsenal. So all going to plan at the moment.........
