Guess that you Mackems are currently feeling that dreaded how did we get so beaten, we are s*** and doomed feeling that I (as a mag) had at the weekend.

Realistically we pretend tht we would love to see you down but the derby is one of my highlights. Just hope we both have enough left in the tank.

At the end of the day both sunderland and Newcastle have been poor this season but I think we will both stop up because I can't c wigan closing the 5 points back even with a game in hand

For both teams I hope it isn't on the last game but history shows we both are put through this agony!

I reckon it will be
(Starting from 20th upwards)
Reading
QPR
Wigan/villa (they play each other on last day, the loser goes down)
Norwich
Newcastle
Stoke
Southampton
Fulham
Sunderland in 12th

Villa will be safe after playing Norwich the weekend as they've already done them 4-1 and 1-0 this season so assume the same again as Villa's form from January has been vastly improved

Bit deluded thinking Sunderland will finish 12th more 16th, 17th

Then again it's all tight at the bottom
2 wins will take us there

wigan have wba and arsenal away with Swansea and villa at home can see them beating Swansea and villa would give them 6pts
Newcastle have West Ham United qpr away arsenal at home can see them getting maybe 1 or 3 pts at qpr
villa have Norwich and wigan away with Chelsea at home and if you could guarantee them to play like last night you could see them beating Norwich and wigan but the same villa team doesn't turn out 2 games in a row so I could see them getting a point at Norwich
Norwich have villa and man city at home plus wba away can see them getting a point at home to villa
Southampton have spurs and sunderland away with stoke at home can see them getting a point maybe 2 at the most
stoke have sunderland and Southampton away with spurs at home think they could get a point or maybe 2
sunderland home to stoke and Southampton with spurs away as a sunderland fan I hope i'm sounding realistic but can't see us getting nothing at spurs but can't see us getting beat of stoke or Southampton at home but not sure about beating them as will be tough games so fancy 2 draws and hoping its the same sunderland who turned out against Newcastle and we might turn one of the draws into a win.
this how I think the table will finish qpr and reading already down with wigan on 38pts
villa 38pts
Norwich 39pts
sunderland 39pts
Newcastle 40pts
Southampton 41pts
stoke 42pts

with wign surviving on goal difference so its qpr reading and villa for me lads

I reckon we will finish 12th or 13th with 43 points

PDC MUST drop Bardsley!

Feel the deciding game is the Wigan villa game on the final day!

my team against Stoke i'd drop Bardsley Gardner and Larsson straight away and I think Mandron deserves his shot upfront

Mignolet
Colback
O'Shea
Cuellar
Rose
Johnson
N'Diaye
Vaughan
McClean
Graham ( Sess if allowed)
Mandron

Id drop bardsley, gardner and cuellar and bring in mangane, colback and mcclean, if sess is suspended I'd bring in mandron to partner graham

Yeah i'd go with mangane ahead of cuellar to he had a really bad game yesterday

If only fletcher wasn't injured

Why not play colback lb and rose lw at least he will attack the full back

Agree i'd put Rose in midfield give the team some pace!

The striker situation is all MONS fault leaving us with no strikers too many loaned out players ! a premiership team should have at least 4 top strikers for such eventualties!

F**k me wtf happened the mig has been brilliant this season only two mistakes leading to goals before tonight then 3 in one match as well as fumbling every cross or shot and if there was any doubts about Bardsley remaining at the club beyond this season then there isn't now if he's not passing back (as he seems unable to pass forward to his wide men or central midfielders) then he is trying to control the ball which inevitably bobbles away from him meaning that his second touch is a tackle also why can't we seem to get two or three good performance's out of cueller on the spin when he has a off day he really has a shocker I wouldn't be to disappointed to also see the back of him I would also like to know who told Paolo that Craig Gardner was a central midfielder because I could have told him that he is definitely not up to playing in the middle of the park far to slow when distributing the ball and also getting to players to make a challenge also when has seb Larsson been able to play wide left looked lost tonight does not have the pace to go past players or make room for himself to deliver sessengnon's red card poor didn't lunge in two footed or go high yes he was a little late but when has standing on a players foot been a red card if I was sunderland I would try to appeal it if unsuccessful as I think we maybe (not because of the offence but because it's sunderland we all remember the turner incident at man city) then who is going to link the midfield and attack or are we going to go with two out and out forwards up top finally Paolo if you get the chance to view the game as you will no doubt do you may just agree with some of the above points and hopefully not repeat them the two changes hampered the side tonight only rose and n'diaye looked at it

Mag in peace. don't be too hard on Mignolet. He had a crap game tonight but this season he's one of the most improved players in the division. I know a lot of Mackems who last season would have paid his fare anywhere he wanted to go but only one way.

N'diaye looked at it? Looked like Bramble in midfield to me.

Thought rose played canny he was getting kicked all over in the first half and still ran riot on the left. Yes mignolet should have saved a few but no keeper could save the first and the deflection caught him out for. the 4th even graham played well he was still putting a shift in against the 2 cb when it was 5-1. Hope we see Graham and mandron against stoke. Safc93

Danny rose was actually kicking our players so get your facts straight

This is what happens, Di Canio comes in and gives the players a lift at first, but his pressure and training regimes are starting to kick in now, the team will be like this every game.

Mackems never see anything. They are the Wenger of football fans.

Yes i'd play mandron and Graham up front and Johnson in sess roving position behind the front 2!. well be fine!

We need a massive clear out at the end of season, agree about Bardsley he had a shocker he just doesn't look match fit. ! PDC should have put Gardener or left Coleback at right back at least Coleback is more reliable and MIGS was due a shocker as he's saved us so many times this season!. best to put a lid on it and prepare for Stoke on Sat!

As far as PDC is concerned the next 2 home games will make or break him with the fans!. its how we react to this debacle!. hopefully hell have them fired up for the visit of Stoke!. I still think Wigan will go down!

Every one has there bad games, unluckily for us, every player did
We will be ok
I reckon 12th place for us

AVB wants rose back
Yeah, over my dead body
Give me the money and I will run down to London

He has been so important to our season
We need to buy him
