The Relegation Thread

[Fosterbloke]

Manchester United Under-23s have been relegated from Division One of Premier League 2.

Ricky Sbragia’s side saw their fate sealed by Derby’s 1-0 victory over West Ham on Monday, a result which leaves United five points adrift of safety with just one game to go.

Perhaps it was an honest question on their part seeing that they wouldn't have visited one apparently

Looking at the form guide the bottom 10 teams have only 8 wins between them from the lat 5 games. Only Palace have more than one win in the last 5. They are all shocking

The top 10 have 32 wins in the same period.

Its weird, since all teams in the League have had more money to spend the ones at the bottom seem to be getting worse.

Burnley are the form team with 5 wins on the bounce.

It's getting really interesting now!

I'm constantly playing with this table to work out possibilities -

I get West Ham, Stoke and West Brom in the bottom three.

What do you get?

PS. Tab 31, 35 and 36 has some unplayed games.

Saints, stoke, west brom.

The only other team that could get dragged in to it are Huddersfield

I got Soton Stoke and WBA

I pumped us for a draw against Chelsea and the Toon to beat them on the last day giving us a 5pt lead on them, think it'll be a lot closer than that though

Stoke relegated!

How fitting that the ****house Shawcross kicks a ball into the path of Van Arnholt who slots it under the world class keeper Butland.

Feel a bit bad for Crouch who has been a magnificent footballer.

[ChesterDave]

Still a chance West Ham could go down. Kazza may heed to wind her neck in on The Apprentice this year instead of criticising leadership failings

WBA performing the great escape!

WBA performing the great escape!

They need to Southampton and Swansea to draw and then lose the rest of each other's games. Oh and WBA need to beat Crystal Palace.

[BigChief]

WBA performing the great escape!

Not really. The only reason they're not relegated is mathematical goal difference which is against them. Swansea can be relegated but that means Southampton will be safe. Conversely Southampton can be relegated but then Swansea will be safe. Neither scenario helps WBA.

[Buzzo]

They’d be safe if they’d given Darren Moore the job earlier. Since he took over 1@ points from 15.

West Brom 1-0 Tottenham

Newcastle 0-1 West Brom

West Brom 2-2 Liverpool

Manchester United 0-1 West Brom

West Brom 1-1 Swansea
