Interestingly, very few of us are looking at Newcastle as real candidates to join QPR and Reading in relegation. The Toon have West Ham and QPR away and Arsenal at home. I can quite easily see them losing all three. QPR are free of worry as their fate is sealed, W Ham are strong at home and on a decent run - don't Newcastle also have a problem getting points away to London teams, historically? - and Arsenal are going all out for the CL place. Given Newcastle's recent form - 2 defeats, 9 goals conceded at home, none scored - the wheels could be about to come off big time.

Give you a silver lining, and you find the cloud. Well done.

Absolutely! Some people worry far too much....

"No side in Premier League History has been relegated when 5 points clear (of the drop zone) with 3 games to go." Ed Chamberlin - Sky Sports and Saints fan, about 1 minute ago. We are 7 points clear. HTH

Even those paragons of super supporterdom, the Geordies (so we are always told), were disappearing in droves after Liverpool scored their third yesterday. Apparently that is what we should all aspire to, so the media tells us....

Newcastle being torn a new one by Liverpool; 0-4 at present...

One bit of good news!

2-2 at the end. You heard it here first ;-)

At least bloody spell it right! GRANDEUR!!

Wigan 1 Spurs 1

Wigan 0 Spurs 1

Never mind that - Marlon King's been arrested (again).

W Ham 1 Wigan 0

Furthermore, I'm not really sure what your point is. It is generally accepted, including by West Ham's own fans, that their style of football is too direct for the purist's liking, so whether they scored 4 hoofball goals or 0 is irrelevant; it doesn't alter their general approach to the game. It's like saying that because we favour a pass and move pressing game that we would never score from a keeper's clearance or a long pass from a defender. We may well do from time to time but it doesn't change our general approach to playing football.

I don't know. Enlighten me. Am sure you are dying to.

Given the wet and windy conditions predicted, I'm not sure Wet Spam's hoofball is going to be so effective today. Ball will be moving around all over the place and will be better off on the ground. If BFS realises this it may play into our hands.

Post of the day - made me laugh! I salute you, sir.

Great minds, ART, great minds... :-)

One of our relegation compatriots, Wigan, just gone 3-0 up at Everton in FA Cup. Only 32 minutes gone.

This I like. Don't know why but have a gut feeling we will all be very happy come 5 pm tonight.

If the stewards have any sense they will deny them entry. Incredible that anybody would think it remotely amusing.

Am taking advantage of the Saints free Saturday to watch Gills v Dagenham and Redbridge. Will give Tommy F a wave for everybody.....

Toure in for them but no Kompany.

And boy did it show! He was breathing out of his backside after 60 minutes!

Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day....
