VillaChris Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Thought they were dead and buried after losing 3-0 to Brighton. Fulham losing 3 winnable games has massively helped them out and they're now 12 points ahead of West Brom despite their late rally. They have the air of us around 13/14 anyway so will go in next two seasons if nothing much changes at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Unpopular opinion. I'd always prefer Newcastle to stay up. I'd always have the bigger clubs with the biggest crowds, biggest grounds over the smaller clubs. I think it enriches the league. Yeah, elitist mentality i know. But just one man's opinion.

I wanted them to stay up because if they stay up they'll stick, if they go down they'll twist and long term will end up better for itย Another year of Bruce 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSmirch Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 They need a lot of players in and out. ย St Max, wilson, Longstaff 1 & 2, goalkeepers are alright, schar is good. The rest of them are pure bottom 5 or championship players.ย Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Almost every season, there's a team that needs to win x amount of games, and people say they can't do it because if they couldn't do it in the previous thirty odd games how are they going to acheive it in the few remaining, but they somehow do manage it, last season that team was us. It won't be easy, if it was there wouldn't be anything amazing about what I'm saying, but if they win their next two there's suddenly going to be a lot of pressure on Newcastle, and Newcastle's last game is against Fulham.

VillaChris Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Yeah Newcastle could easily lose their next two. Problem for Fulham is even winning their two games means it goes down to 3 points so Fulham then have to match Newcastle's result in week 37 to take it to final day. Newcastle at home to Sheffield United. Fulham away to Man. United. Newcastle stayed up by beating West Ham really. Fulham probably got more chance of catching Burnley but they also have Sheffield United still to play aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their goal difference isย the same though so if Fulham won their next 2 and then lost against Utd, with Newcastle losing their next 3, it would likely be in Fulham's hand and a win on the last game of the season would save them. I don't think it will happen though. Knowing what this Newcastle team are like I can see them beating Man City andย Sheff Utd winning to do the double.

City will batter them and have 94% possession and 64 shots on goal and Newcastle will score from the only corner they get. Then Bruce can claim he is better than Bielsa and Pochettino 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 They won't lose to Sheffield United. Perhaps Fulham could get a draw off Man. United if they've wrapped up 2nd as by then they'll be resting players for probable europa league final. Interesting to see what the atmosphere is like with 10k back, I imagine they'll give Bruce a bit of grief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
