You've got us getting 1 more point for the rest of the season and still getting a shot on the last day, I reckon Bruce would take that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That point was against Sheff Utd at home.

We should just fold as a club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil-Dick Willie Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Did the predictor. Had Newcastle down on 32 pts. Fulham staying up on 35. West ham ended up winning the race for 4th. 70 pts, just ahead of Tottenham, Liverpool and Chelsea. However, I'd predict from this point that Chelsea or Liverpool would get that spot so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted March 26, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted March 26, 2021 Newcastle playing Sheffield United is significant. I think they'll totally tank and that'll be the one remaining game Newcastle win. It's sad that the potential of that ending 0-1 won't see the fierce boos it deserves. Maybe they should fly a plane over with a massive "BOOOOOOOOOOOOO" banner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan Posted April 19, 2021 Administrator Share Posted April 19, 2021 Given Newcastle's run of games - albeit aware they won at the weekend after expecting a loss - they're perhaps not fully out of sight yet. I think they are, but others may not! Sheff Utd confirmed relegated. Second-season syndrome really shit them up. West Brom probably left themselves with too much to do despite winning their last 2. Fulham's inability to avoid choking in games they're leading in will probably be the reason they eventually go down. 21 points lost from winning positions. Worst in the division.

Honey Honey Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 When we went down last time 2nd last game we played Villa who were bottom and down. They were shite and we couldn't beat them. It's likely again this time 2nd last game we'll play the relegated side needing a win. Hopefully home advantage helps this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan Posted April 28, 2021 Administrator Share Posted April 28, 2021 Newcastle and Burnley profited the most out of the bottom 6 teams. Burnley probably safe after their thrashing of Wolves; Newcastle picked up an invaluable point away at Liverpool; West Brom barely turned up at Leicester and then surrendered another lead and lost 2 crucial points. Brighton may have thought themselves to be safe already (and probably are) with defeat at Sheff Utd. With those results, Newcastle are probably safe for another season (long live Steve Bruce) as are Southampton despite losing against Spurs and being overtaken by Burnley - all 3 now level on 36 points. Next games: Brighton vs Leeds Chelsea vs Fulham West Brom vs Wolves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan Posted May 4, 2021 Administrator Share Posted May 4, 2021 A win, a draw, and a loss for the 3 sides battling to avoid relegation. Although, still, it looks like Fulham and West Brom have left it too late to do anything. Next fixtures Leicester vs Newcastle - Newcastle can pretty much guarantee safety if they beat Leicester Arsenal vs West Brom - West Brom will be relegated if they don't beat Arsenal. A draw is unlikely to be enough in any case. Fulham vs Burnley - A loss here is the final nail in the coffin for Fulham. A draw won't even be enough if Newcastle avoid defeat in the game above.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted May 10, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted May 10, 2021 Feels like a big sideways move in some ways but would Sean Dyche potentially fancy it? I say it because I'm not convinced by the sounds of these new Burnley owners who were likened to being the pound shop Glazers. They'll be down within a couple of seasons if that's the case.

I imagine he would be the first option if Roy Hodgson was to retire because of the similarities in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
