    I really hope Hull stay up.

    I play as them on FIFA 09.

    Won them the FA in the first season and stayed up on GD.

    Now in the second season im coming about 7th, in the semis for EUFA Cup and FA Cup.

    Got the gunnest team too.

    Portsmouth beat Sunderland 3-1 this morning, effectively securing their Premier League survival, while Sunderland are again plunged into danger.

    ---------------------
    16. Sunderland - 36 (-19)
    17. Hull City - 35 (-24)
    18. Newcastle United - 34 (-18)
    19. Middlesbrough - 32 (-28)
    20. West Bromwich Albion - 31 (-31)


    WBA are officially the first team relegated.

    The only way Middlesbrough can avoid relegation now is if they win on the final day of the season, while Newcastle and Hull lose with the latter losing by enough for Boro to close the goal difference gap.

    Newcastle can avoid relegation with a win or draw against Aston Villa, only if Hull or Middlesbrough don't better their result.

    Hull will secure safety with a win against a weakened Manchester United side. They can afford to draw if Newcastle draw or lose.

    Sunderland should be safe on the final day of the season with a point ... unless a freak event occurs. A win should be on Sunderland's top priority though.

    i still cant see newcastle getting a draw or win at aston villa, but funnily enough i can see hull getting a point vs man utd
     
  6. BigDougy DG Dafter

    I so wish that wasn't true, but I have to agree with you there mate.
     
  7. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    Aston Villa have been so dire recently its not impossible.
     
  8. Riddy JH Ridd

    i would like to see a post-february form table... i bet villa would be relegated!
     
  9. BoyBlunder BOY Blunder

    So would Hull...
     
  10. rolande RE Hallett

    I think Mackems will go down.
     
  11. Gazza GJ Weaver

    At the TAB Middlesborough are $1.01 to get relegated :lol:
     
  12. Frizzed WC Welker

    I hope Hull stay up.
     
  13. Hybrid A Kolar

    Yeah they probably would lol. Their recent form record is pretty ridiculous. No wins from 10 or something, iirc.
     
  14. Lukic L Popovic

    Villa were on track to make Champs League easy, leaves me wondering WTF happened?
     
  15. Hybrid A Kolar

    They were never going to make it IMO.

    Don't get me wrong, Villa have a great first team. They have quite a few players I really like.

    But behind their first team, they have no depth. The level of quality decreases outrageously on their bench and in their reserves. O'Neill expected his first 11 to both make 4th and do well in the UEFA Cup at the same time, which is a ridiculous expectation that was never going to happen. The players got fatigued and burnt out, which explains their dire drop in form since about February/March.

    Arsenal, although they stuttered at times during the season, have far superior depth and IMO, were never threatened genuinely for 4th place.
     
  16. Lukic L Popovic

    If you look back at it yeah, Arsenal would've probably nabbed it any way, but still, LOL @ Villa's fall from grace.

    Glad to see Everton come 5th though.

    Don't be so sure...
