Robbie09 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Perhaps now Mr Whelan might release a few extra tickets for our game and cash in whilst he can. Lots of empty seats at The DW for a few years to come...... Karma......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I am happy for anyone other than us to go down and it now looks likely that if Wigan are to stay up it will be at someone else's expense and they will need to beat us to do it. It will be nice to see them and say one or more of Sunderland, Norwich, Newcastle or Southampton reliant on what we do on the last day rather than the other way around. It is not over until the fat lady sings but she is in the wings waiting for her introduction! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I dont think we will go down but arsenal are no guarantee to beat wigan. Lets not jump the gun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Well technically we could still be in this on the final day if Wigan beat Arsenal. Not impossible but will probably be a big ask especially after an FA Cup final. Seriously can't see Wigan beating Arsenal away and then us at their place, particularly after a FA Cup appearance (win or lose) There's no chance them getting anything at Arsenal. The injuries are mounting, they will be exhausted after the final and the fact that they cant defend either. We can just go into the Chelsea game relaxed. Which is about the first time all season that has happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Dunno if it makes it any easier, but if 10 teams are in a relegation battle then it doesn't reflect as badly on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Unbelievable result tonight. It makes Saturday's game for us relativlely pressure free. Then just have to hope Arsenal can scrape a draw next week at home to Wigan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packoman Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 As has been pointed out already even if Wigan get something against Arsenal, there are 4 teams between us who would all need to get results as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smetrov Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Is there a set results on saturday that make us safe - even if we loose to chelsea ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 "i think there is stat - that no team - 5 points clear with 3 games to go has ever been relegated. - and we only have 2 games to go". You think right smetrov I quoted it in my player match ratings and it has not happened since the PL began. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastEndVillan Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 A point against Chelsea, QPR join the party and beat Newcastle, and then we role over and let wigan win - Newcastle are relegated. Nothing better than the sight of blubbing fat 'Jawdees' at the end of the final whistle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
