The relegation run in

[maccavennie]

Now you don't have to look behind you who do you think stands the best chance of survival and who is destined to the doldrums of the Championship?

It looks like it's between 5 teams

Leicester
Burnley
QPR
Hull
Sunderland

Ourselves and Burnley have the 'favourable' run in but anything can happen at this stage (just look at Sunderland last season)

Looking at Hull's remaining games I'd say they look dead and buried. West brom and Villa look like they have done enough.

Our key games are

Swansea (H)
Burnley (A)
Newcastle (H)
Sunderland (A) huge game
QPR (H) last game of the season.

Thoughts?

I actually think what might happen is your fate is in your own hands where by you win on the weekend and are right in the thick of it with the wind in your sails, then throw it away. Sometimes when there's nothing to lose teams give it a right good go and reap the benefits as the pressure is off. Suddenly the pressure is on and then the players and manager think differently and become more cautious and wins turn to draws or defeats.

One of you, Qpr and Burnley will have a chance of escaping at the expense of Hull o reckon. It's whether when the opportunity arises that team can take it.

Good luck....I hope you stay up.

Sunderland and Hull deserve to go down IMO and I think at least one of them will.

It is all to play for, Foxy

The pity is the Barcodes hadn't three or four points less and could be dragged into it.

I would love to see that abomination of a football club go down again.

Hope they stay up..

Ya me to, was put off them a little when I heard their fans singing some song to the tune of "in our Liverpool home" what they were singing I've no idea. as for who will go down for me Hull are in free fall and QPR can't buy a result and sorry to say Sunderland look like they will go which is a same cause I quite like them.

To be fair, if you took a dislike to every group of fans who gave a refndition of that little ditty you would be left liking no one but the Kopites

...I remember Everton being in this situation and it's dreadful. Because of this I never say who I would like to go down because it's torture for all the fans involved. I really don't know what will happen, there is usually one who has a great escape but I do wish you all the best.

I usually share this sentiment. But I make an exception for QPR.

If they can make it back to the prem with a proper squad instead of a bunch of mercenaries, I'll eat my own fingers.

Leicester ruined our season when they equalized on opening day. Would have won the league if they didn't knock our confidence

 

[LinekersLegs]

Booted out? I thought he quit because of health* reasons?

*Fernandes not giving him any more transfer funds

He has recently come out claiming it was people "with their own agendas" that meant he had to leave the club and is confident he would have kept them up.

I think he's an idiot, would never want him managing the team I support, and will resort to ad hominem to further my slander of Redknapp

If everyone below us went down that would be fantastic.

Although they'll go and we'll have to deal with Norwich for another year. Can we not have some league for sides too good for the Championship but not good enough for the Prem ? Yenno, get rid of them all. Be fantastic that.

That will be the prem once the European super league is formed.

I hope QPR go down, beyond that I'm not bothered unless somehow Newcastle get dragged into it but unfortunately I think they are already safe.

 

[AussieToffee]

I love an underdog so I'm rooting for Leicester to win their last 3 games of the season to survive with a point in hand.

With three games to go they'll look dead and buried.

A good story.

Sunderland are woeful and in real danger

 

[SpurtingLesbian]

In a way I suppose I'd have to say Hull, not that' I've anything against then or anything. It's just their owner seems to be a grade one bellend more intent on a ridiculous name change for the club rather than helping sort out what is happening on the pitch.

A relegation should devalue the Club a bit, make him worry, about his investment and be a bit easier to take over if they can find someone. It would also massively increase the pressure on him not that there isn't a lot of that already from their fans.

Otherwise, QPR. Too many London teams. swap them for some where sunny like Bournemouth, or exotic and foreign like Norwich

Both Leicester and Burnley are a decent clubs. Hope they stay up. It won't be easy but I think Hull and QPR will go down, so it's only one place for the taking.
