I reckon Hull might stay up but I doubt they'll survive next season. Newcastle, Boro and West Brom will go down IMO. If Boro do go I think they'll do a Leeds/Charlton and go all together into League 1.

that's what plebty said of wigan latics, but to be honest if they went close to relegation now i'd be surprised.

I still think Hull will go down. My predictions finished up:

1. Manchester United 89
2. Liverpool 86
------------------------------
18. Hull 34
19. Newcastle 32
20. WBA 28

It's no suprise that we look like we dont have a clue, because quite simply we dont. Not just the team either, the owner is responsible for the vast majority of this mess that we are in, along with the players who aren't performing, however that is probably down to a lack of confidence and being completely edgey/nervous.

Keegan cries out that we need a left back, so what happens when the only left back at the club goes off injured after 35 minutes. We have to put a winger at left back, and then a central midfielder on the wing, in Danny Guthrie.

Keegan also wanted a creative central midfielder, but instead what do we have, grafter, grafter, grafter, no creativity what so ever. Butt, Nolan, Smith, etc... haven't got any creativity between them, they will work hard and be committed, but they won't create chances.

It will be interesting to see what Ashley's followers who have followed and backed him blind make of the situation now. The ones who could see what was happening and werent as naive, which includes me, could see relegation coming a mile off, as we have been going downhill big time with Ashley in charge.

Ashley is an idiot and hasn't a clue how to run a football club. Then again, i have been saying it for 6-7 months and still some Toon fans never fail to amaze at how naive they can be at times.

i bet the ashley bum kissers are still up him

Oh no doubt, him and Wise are obviously brilliant.

Oh hang on a moment, those who thought Wise was doing a great job were obviously wrong too.

Coloccini has been awful, Xisco has hardly played, Gonzales has been injured.

Wise then gets the boot when Shearer comes in because he realises how much he interfered when Keegan was incharge.

They were wrong again there too, like they have been proved wrong with the way Ashley has run the club, proved wrong in a big way too.

So you along with everyone else whos done a predication reckons that we wont get another point this season?

there fait is in ashleys hands

alan was brought in at the wrong time and tbh i feel sorry for you lot as ashley is more of a fan then a bussiness man

cant see where your win or draw can come from tbh

I wont make predications about who we will beat/lose to but games against Stoke and Bolton are very winnable and we have a great record against the big clubs so you never know we could give Villa and Man Utd a good run also

Ashley is a complete idiot. He isn't solely to blame, but he must take a large portion of the blame for the way he's completely funked the club up.

think stoke and bolton could be very hard games

news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/8017816.stm anyone hear about that? Lampard set that knobjockey dj straight. Who the f*ck does he think he is saying that stuff about lampard.

ashley ashley ashley ashley

a large contigent of newcastle fans still carry some of the blame for the current mess.

If they'd kept allardyce in charge they'd never be in this mess.

But no.

Newcastle fans put payed to that.

I am inclined to agree with that.

Wash your mouth out with soap and water.

TO BLAME

Ashley
Wise
Allardyce

NOT TO BLAME

Keegan
Shearer
Michael Owen
Any other Newcastle hero

My god Gaz you will upset Ash with all this downtalking of Wise, Ashley, Coloccini etc



I can't see Newcastle staying up now, they needed to win the three home games imo, they won't get anything at Villa or Liverpool and even two home wins might not be enough.

No.

I can see it going:

Aston Villa 2-0 Hull
Hull 0-1 Stoke
Bolton 2-1 Hull
Hull 0-4 Manchester United

No, a small minority of the fans are to blame, and that is the naive/deluded fans who think we should still be in the Champions League.

The other fans know that we don't deserve that, i don't expect anything like that anytime soon, but the small minority always get the Newcastle haters thinking it is everyone that has unrealistic expectations.



Well anyone with a pair of eyes can see how bad Coloccini has been, with the exception of 3 or 4 games.

Wise may have brought a few youngsters in for the academy, but his interfering and his signings for the team (Xisco, Coloccini, Gonzales) have failed to shine.

thought gonzales had gone alright myself. don't think you can blame the mess you're in on three players wise ushered in though. quite a few keegan/pre-wise buys have done feck all to be fair.

Bassong is a Keegan signing and he has been probably our best player this season.

Im not blaming the 3 players, they just happen to have been really below par, or haven't played. 1 person has to carry the blame for the way he has run the club, the massive mistakes he has made and the position we find ourselves in now, and that is Ashley.

Gonzales hasn't even played mate.

was thinking of gutierrez

he was a good player at mallorca

Gutierrez has been good, played better at the start of the season, he is more creative than other midfielders we have, he just hasn't scored for us yet. None of our players look like scoring.
