"Relegation Battle"

Premiership seems to be looking interestin this season with a number of team fighting for 4th spot, and Chelsea and Man united battling for 2nd.

It's not just that, it's also the relegation battle, in which I think Wolves have been unlucky. Looking at their 4 of their last 5 games, they have conceded 5 goals goals in the 90th minute costing them 5 vital points.

This would of made the relegation battle more interesting, but it looks certain they have gone down.

So who will follow Wolves for the drop?

Leeds and Portsmouth seem to be getting points, and Leicester are battling hard, but look certain to go down also.

You also have Blackburn and Man City also on the same points as Portsmouth.

it's all a load of sunglasses for your green eyes :D

not like you have anything to sing about this year...

or next year, with the beginning of the "southern era" :)

How could I be jealous of your lot when I've been through it all - several times before - with Man. United?! :P

And, if you want a cheap shot, I only have to mention one thing...
"[/I]The Treble Season of 1999[/I]"! :P ;D


Arsénal; a one-man team? Sorry, of course not...
With ten-men to do nothing but defend, of course, you have only a one-man attack! :P

Probably would weaken the Premiership, but at least we'd have 3 Derby matches to look forward too.
                                                                         
Wolves probably would of stayed up if Dave Jones played Camara in the ceentre, instead of on the right. He's scored 5 goals in as many while playing in the centre.

Not sure who I'd like to see win the play-offs, but I won't want to see Sunderland back. They were like Middlesborough...very boring.

i think this would weaken the prem personally. i'd like with my heart for them to stay up, but my head says that it's someone else's turn to brave the big boys.

as for tottenham, i just realised we could send you that way. i can see both wolves and blackburn getting a result against you. but surely you have to stay up if only by one point... :)

Mmmmm, I have no confidence at all in us...

Don't think Tottenham will go down. I reckon they only need a win from the last 4 games.
                                                                         
Hope Wolves can pull off a miracle. It would be great to have them and West Brom in the Premiership.

I think that Spurs may go down *gulp*

If, no sorry when we lose on saturday, that will leave us merely 3 points off the drop. We still have to play Wolves and Blackburn, and if they can see a way out, they will be gunning for it and will by no means be an easy win.

We all know what Spurs are like, unpredictable Spurs who can't put a good run together, and this is what I am worried about. If we have a few bad games, we'll go down. We need pretty much every point we can get to stay up, because to be honest, some of the teams below us are a lot better than us (Man City) and have easier fixtures.

I think that it comes down to this saturday, If Leicester lose to Man City then they are definitely down because that means we will be 9 points behind 17th place with only three games to go.
