How they must feel,if we are 90% certain to go down they are 99%.So much for Kean thinking 7 points would be enough,even if they win all 4 remaining games they could stiil go down,so as bad as things are for us,Blackburn are worse once,scant consolation I know!

90% likely? Think thats just a reflection of your depression, not the actual position. The bookies seem to put it at about 50-50 and I think that's far more realistic.Comment

Yep, and so far this season their matches have yielded slightly less than a point a game, so if past form means anything they won't be ahead of us after those two games. Sure, they might win them both 6-0, the optimists can be no more sure than the doom mongers, its all guess work. But educated guess work - and bookies are pretty good at that - suggests that the situation is still more open than you admit.Comment

And by the way, if anyone was mad enough to offer you odds of 9-1 on us staying up my advice wd bite their hands off...Comment

I don't know mate, no one does, that's why I think its wrong to write us off (just as it wd be crazy to assume we are safe, tho' I don't think even the wildest optimist wd do that). But for what my prediction skills are worth (not much) I think six points is possible and four points is pretty likely.Comment

Agree with you - particularly with our superior goal difference. My hunch - and it is purely that - is that we will go into the last game at Man City needing to avoid a tonking. In other words a defeat might be OK as long as its not so big that it decimates our goal difference advantage.Comment

If we're going into the game at City safe once we don't get hammered I will take that scenario right now. In fact even if we have to get a draw there to survive I would take it right now. I fear it may well be all over by that stage, and I'm not wearing glasses of any type, can't find the ****ing things!.Comment
