The Relegation Thread (2012/13)

[Muddled]

I'd love Stoke (soz Stoke fans) to go and [whisper]Wigan[/whisper] (soz Scratch).

I agree about Reading and QPR and I'm glad about the latter too; they've just thrown money at every problem and I hope it bites them on the arse.

It's an important North East derby tomorrow, with Sunderland struggling until the end of the season without Fletcher and Cattermole and Aston Villa should just about scrape safety.

Heart wants QPR, Stoke and Wigan, head says QPR, Reading and Sunderland.

[Chazza]

Sunderland rests on tomorrow I reckon.

If they play well and get some sort of result then they will be ok.

Whatever happens it will be a last day thriller.

As the season draws to a close I gaze my eyes towards the lower half of the table & I start praying certain teams loose so they ultimately get relegated .

It appears nigh on certain that Reading & QPR are gone so who do you hope to be the other side relegated this season?

For me it has to be Stoke. They are an anti football team IMO. Really can't stand the club at all. Now that Wigan have made the FA Cup Final I expect them to push on & do enough to stay up.



Newcastle 32 10 6 16 -14 36
Norwich 33 7 14 12 -21 35
Stoke 32 7 13 12 -11 34
Aston Villa 33 8 10 15 -24 34
Sunderland32 7 10 15 -11 31
Wigan 31 8 7 16 -20 31
QPR 33 4 12 17 -25 24
Reading 33 5 9 19 -27 24

I think it could go either way, so often you see teams who have been playing well get distracted by a cup final on the horizon, if this happens to Wigan they are in trouble. Martinez needs to keep them focused otherwise they're cup final could cost them their Premiership status.

As you say QPR and Reading are as good as gone. Personally I would like to see Sunderland or Stoke go down, because we always seem to have tough games against them, and usually don't pick up many points.

I think Wigan will always be rubbish so they can wait till next year. Stoke havw to drop now while we have the chance to get rid.

[Chazza]

Stoke run in

[Gibbo]

Sunderland, QPR and Southamptons musts for them.

Really hope they go down.

[RichC]

You'd expect them to have enough to get what they need from those games

[Chazza]

Villa run in

[Chazza]

Sunderland

Last game will be interesting
