The relegation run in

Status
Not open for further replies.

My tri-cast for going down is Hull, QPR and Sunderland.

This is mainly based on Hull and Sunderland being cold and windy places more than two hours drive away and QPR being in London, whereas Burnley is dead easy to get to and it would seem rude to say I think you'll go down.

Plus, I quite liked Leicester this summer, apart from that BLOODY drum ffs.
 
I wouldn't mind either Burnley or Leicester staying up, the rest I'm not to arsed about. It would be nice if QPR got a sniff of staying up only to be relegated on goal difference on the last day to maximise their pain as they are a supreme bunch of tw@s.
 
Newcastle and Villa to go down pls xx
As long as Villa Beat the RS in the Cup Semi, I don't really care.

Even losing the final but taking the Europa place (due to Arsenal already qualifying for the CL) would be classed as a good season for Todgers
 

Now you don't have to look behind you who do you think stands the best chance of survival and who is destined to the doldrums of the Championship?

It looks like it's between 5 teams

Leicester
Burnley
QPR
Hull
Sunderland

Ourselves and Burnley have the 'favourable' run in but anything can happen at this stage (just look at Sunderland last season)

Looking at Hull's remaining games I'd say they look dead and buried. West brom and Villa look like they have done enough.

Our key games are

Swansea (H)
Burnley (A)
Newcastle (H)
Sunderland (A) huge game
QPR (H) last game of the season.

Thoughts?


To be honest mate, I think you've left it too late. Although potentially you have a reasonable run in, Sunderland, Burnley
and potentially QPR if it goes to the wire will all be fighting for their lives.

I truly hope you stay up, but I think the tit you have as a manager and a lack of goals have been your downfall. If there was one team over any other that I'd like to go down, it's Stoke. Disgusting Neanderthal fans, a style of football that's based on fouling and time wasting, with one of the most dislikeable managers ever in Hughes.

I do hope you stay up, fingers crossed .
 

If everyone below us went down that would be fantastic.

Although they'll go and we'll have to deal with Norwich for another year. Can we not have some league for sides too good for the Championship but not good enough for the Prem ? Yenno, get rid of them all. Be fantastic that.

Newcastle, West Brom, Villa, Sunderland, Hull, Burnley, QPR and Leicester shall all go down under this new rule. Celebrate good times, come on.

My thoughts are exactly what you've said.

Anything can happen, Sunderland showed that the form book can just go at any time.

However, i really can't for the life of me, see where Hull are getting a win, possibly Burnley but it'll be hard. So i think they are goners. I think sadly for the whole lot down there, West Brom have too many points on the points as insurance to be seriously tested, as their run in is horrific (Norwich-esque from last season).

QPR are by no means dead and buried, however, with an untested manager like that Ramsey, i think inexperience will cost them.

Biased from me of course, because I want Leicester and Burnley both to stay up, and Sunderland and Hull to go, but Leicester are currently in form, so if they can maintain that, i think they'll survive. On the other hand, Burnley are a mixed bag, hugely admired for not spending even though they've earned a shed load, and have a good young manager, but can they be consistent enough? They've come out of their horrific spell with their place still intact, and well they're up against us next, so they'll probably hammer us 5-0 :lol: But I can't see where Sunderland and hull are getting their wins from, so it's a question of can the others take advantage?
 
Hope QPR stay up, solely because if they dont the couple of months after will be filled with Redknapp and his chums claiming that they would never have gone down if only he wasnt booted out.

Booted out? I thought he quit because of health* reasons?

*Fernandes not giving him any more transfer funds
 
Who I'd like to see relegated and who I think will be relegated are quite different. Too many claret/blue shirts for me though, one of them should go down and unfortunately it looks like Burnley are the best option.
