Wigan & Wolves will deffo go down & so they should as they are both poor sides, the other spot is up for grabs but I think it will be either West Brom or Hopefully Birmingham.
Wolves, West Brom & Wigan have had some suprise wins, but its about the season performance.
Dont get me wrong we have also been poor but with Ba, Hitz & Oneil we look such a better side.

The best part is that we do have choices now in all parts of the field which is not often that happens at WH . How do the other relegation dog fighting teams look in this important run in , cant be arsed to check out , so we must be looking favorites now to avoid the drop , I kin hope so . COYI

Don't agree that Wolves will go down. They, like us, have found some momentum. I agree that Wigan are in big trouble and I hope we help to send them and their doddering, interfering wanker of a chairman Dave Whelan to the Coco-Pops with their mates at Sheff Utd.

Other clubs in freefall are Birmingham, Blackburn, Blackpool and Aston Villa

My bottom three? Wigan, Blackburn and Blackpool

just beating those teams around us that we have yet to play is the most important,, If we can turn over wigan , blackburn and maybe villa, this is getting to proper squeeky bum time again aint it

it wouldn't be West Ham without it dude !

Or the Navy

I fancy us to get some sort of result against manpoo tomorrow, a 0-0 draw would be good a 1-0 win superb. I fancy us to get wins against Villa, Blackburn, Wigan and Sunderland, but see nothing coming out of the other 3 games, we always lose at Notlob, Chelsea and City will both be to strong for us I fear. But by my reckoning that would give us 45 points, which should see us pushing towards the halfway mark.

My tips to go down, Wigan, WBA and Blackpool just wish we could also send down Blackburn and Stoke!

It looks to me that Villa are some trouble as well. That would kinda be a shame no?

Have no feelings for any of our opponents until we are out of it - besides Houllier is a knob.

Also feel that Blackburn & Blackpool could find themselves in the final mix. Rovers should have got a decent manager when they had the opportunity. The draw between the 2 was a bad result for both - both of them would have wanted & expected 3 points from that game. Wolves results against the top teams & the fact they have kept themselves in contact makes me think they will get out of it, likewise wigan who have never been dropped (although I hope they go down).

Brum & Villa seem a bit delusional right now. Both seem to have the attitude they are too good. Long may it continue.

Too tough to call...it's all changed again today with the wankers that should be winning dropping points to our nearest rivals....

Driving me bananas.... :sleep: wake me up 22nd May

What just before we go in the Barking Dawg for Brekie or just before we hit the Supps Club

Sunday morning please..... 9 ish

Pity games are not only 45 mins long. Fupp!

Yesterday was a great example of how to go and blow a lead and tottaly crumble against a side that looked average at best in the first half. What happened at half time in the dressing room anyone want to hazard a guess? Something must of happened because when the players came out for the second half they looked nothing like they did in the first. We should have put the game to bed, even before the second half in my opinion I just cant see what changed so much. Apart from rooney scoring 3 goals which looked about as likely to happen in the first half as us winning the league but apart from that we just seemed to implode. The worst thing is that I was watching the game with a freind of mine who supports Man United and I kept any jibes to myself when we was winning and made sure not to gloat, but as soon as Man United took the lead he wouldnt shut up rubing it in and making comments about how good they was. I wish i had of gloated when I had the chance....................

Not one side managed to do us a favour yesterday, games I thought were bankers in our favour completely fupped up. Bloody spuds cant even beat wigan! Albion beating Liverpoo , only bright spot was Wolfs going done at barcodes, but a bad day at the office and only an away game at Notlob to look forward to ya h boo sucks

At least Bobby Z is doing his bit, scored both as Foolham are 2-0 up against the tangerines, which really puts the heat on them! Hurrah

Make that 3-0 Motty , good old Bobby

Tottenham havent beaten any of our relegation rivals... coincidence? I think not!!

steve haradine conspiracy theory there somewhere

Mind you they haven't beaten us either which would suggest they are just shit & not top 4 material.

Good result by fulham today - drops blackpool right into the danger zone.

And Bobby Z got two and why did we get rid of him ?
