Relegation Run-in Thread

[Terry-Mancini-123]

That Wigan win has raised the bar by 3 pts for everyone, and given ManC a way back in to the title race! It was a result noone had put into their calculations. Very bad news for us, hope it doesn't prove to be our undoing!!!

It's a crazy season, too difficult to predict results but we look excellent and im extremely proud but we are still living game by game

hear hear, i have been so proud of our hoops recently but we still need to take each game as it comes - a strategy which it appears the management team are beginning to really piece together just when we need it.

Villa - could be the surprise package to go down, not used to relegation battle and fans not happy.
Bolton - I have slight concern that they may get to safety on the basis they aren't a bad side, use to scrapping, got games in hand which worries me and have fixtures against a lot of teams that have little to play for.
Blackburn - wobbling at the moment but next two games are crucial against Newly promoted championship sides that they will probably think they can beat if they do they are back in the mix. Hopefully Liverpool game destroyed any remaining self respect they may have had.
Wigan - probably the form team out of the 6 but have tough next 5 fixtures.
Wolves - gone
Us - few weeks ago, I thought we had by far the worst run in but we've managed to do great and our remaining fixtures don't look as bad as they once did but still tough. However we may not have the luxury of say Bolton and Wigan of being able to rely on our final fixture to give us an end of
season great escape.
Need to get maximum points from our games against WBA and spurs.

A Villa are not that safe you know and will not beat Man Utd at OT.

They have the following games:

Man Utd v Aston Villa
Aston Villa v Sunderland
Aston Villa v Bolton
West Brom v Aston Villa
Aston Villa v Tottenham
Norwich v Aston Villa

Been saying the same for a couple of weeks now mate, those games are not easy. It will depend who's closest to us as to who i want to win between them and bolton.

Wigan and QPR now both have the wind in their sails going into the last 5 games.

We're definitely the 2 form teams.

[MYU]

Worried about Wigan picking up more points, had them to win some but not against Man Utd, that's a massive blow.

[QPRDave]

bolton have the easiest run-in by the look of it, based on this i reckon the bottom 3 as it is currently to go down (wigan, woles, blackburn)

Yeah but you look at that run in that ain't that easy
Villa still have something to play for
Sunderland a not easy
Spurs h and stoke away none are a walk in thepark imo

Quality thread, can we sticky it?

Ok

Looking at that I still think we need 9 points from the next 6 games! Wigan and Blackburn are still capable of getting 9 points each respectively! Bolton I can't call I really don't know how they are going to fair over the next few games!
It's in our hands and tonight's game could be a reall catalyst for us to say up and give us a real psychological advantage on our rivals!

[Yousef]

Well qpr4life suprises always happen at the end of the season as everybody fight for their life.

[qpr4life]

Villa arent out of it, however Its VERY unlikely that they will get pulled into a dogfight!

Bolton playing Villa is key, If Bolton was to win it then surely Villa have to be counted as in the relegation dogfight!

People are still mentioning 40 Points...

I think 36-37 will the mark, I cant see any team getting anymore than that! I can only see us achieving 37 Max, but hey we have been surprising of late against the big four!

[Yousef]

Swansea will play a major role as only Wigan will not face them
