Fulham?

[eFestivals]

... Liverpool should be able to handle Spurs but if they win tonight they will be going for an 8th win in a row against Spurs and that just may make them very dizzy.

that's much the same as my logic about tonight.

What a good job brucie is doing at Hull.

[DomDom1984]

Sunderland are kinda shit. And Liverpool are excellent at home. They're naw bad away mind ye, but better at home. I don't see anything but a heavy loss for Sunderland in that one.

West Ham vs. Hull must be the most uninspiring game on paper I've seen for a while btw.

Liverpool have to take the chance of the title, none of this we are not really contenders.

They might or might not get another chance for a few years.

But Chelsea only have Liverpool and the rest of the games are easier than anyone elses run in.

and too many of them at home. Chelsea under Moaniho are awesome at home, and I hate them for it.

The most likely chance they'll lose is last day of the season at a fighting-relegation (if they still are) Cardiff .... but I think Moaniho is probably too experienced for that to happen.

which is kinda why I see S'land winning.

It's such an easy-win game that Liverpool will blow it.

oooo ... just looked at City's remaining games. There's plenty of room for slip-ups in there.

I enjoyed our season in the Championship, I'd prefer not to repeat it anytime soon though.

Liverpool tonight... On my way now

Jesus christ i must love pain and suffering

[eFestivals]

Yep. And if Liverpool beat Chelsea they can go above them. They'll have to get 4 points from the City and Spurs games too though I reckon.

Chelsea already slipped up against Villa. Mourinho teams don't do that too often.

I reckon to win the Prem Liverpool would need to beat both City and Chelsea, and win all their other games too.

That's waaay too big an ask. While they're good enough to win any of those games as a one off, the chances of everything coming together like that - plus City dropping points in another game - is tooo unlikely, particularly as they'd have to beat both City and Chelsea.

They're good enough to win all of those games as a one-off, but to win them all together? Nahh.

[kemosabe]

And I think of the bottom teams S'land have been playing better (under Poyet) than a fair few others, but the results haven't gone their way. Sooner or later it's going to roll a bit better for them, even if it doesn't roll enough to save them.

[kaosmark2]

difference is despite your chairman selling players and not spending you consistently do well... since you have come back up you have not really been in a relegation battle. While with us its every fucking year... its boring

[kaosmark2]

Will stay up for me.

[kemosabe]

Us, Cardiff and Fulham are going down IMO!

[LondonTom]

I don't know about that, a win for Hull they go 11 clear of bottom 3 and 9 points if west ham get the win.

One of them pretty much guarantees survival with a win.

I get the implications of the West Ham vs. Hull game btw, and I'm not suggesting it'll be a shitfest. Just that looking at it on paper, I let out a bit of an "ugh".

As for the potential of a Liverpool slip up, I just don't see it. I think they're past the point of blowing it, especially at home.

Tony Pulis is one of them managers that people just dislike for various reasons. I actually don't mind the way he sends teams out onto the pitch. It's his "forever the victim" attitude whenever his team loses that really annoys me.

I'm a Fulham fan - still hopeful we can get out of it but it does look more and more unlikely. Our last 7 fixtures are all winnable, granted we probbaly need 15 points from them! I just believe its kinda possible as no one else is picking up wins and there is a decent team there if they sort themselves out.

Think its far more likely we'll just fade out and be down before May mind, but with the fixtures we have it is possible for a bit of form to lead to a decent uptake of points.

We were in a far worse position last time we stayed up .
