And an extra pie for Callum McManaman, what a match he had. He's only 22 but he was the difference maker today.

<wonder what he has in mind for next year>

Could Newcastle be the ones to go down? Does not look good at this moment in time.

1-1 just after I posted. :@)

No i don't think they will. You shouldn't be concerned with premiership football. Perhaps this is the reason for your mls thread.

Also can't believe City are looking at getting rid of Mancini. How is second in the Premiership and FA Cup finalists a failure in anyone's book ?

EPL is fun from a neutral point of view. Would like to have seen Wigan stay up, but that is a long shot now.

As a newly qualified neutral in the relegation battle, I agree.

Dream scenario: Wigan beat Arsenal and Villa:

Spurs stuff S********d 10-0, while Toon polish off Arsenal 2-0.

Plucky Wigan survive again, S********d get relegated and Spurs go to the Champions League next year.

Win win win.

That's a scenario that I can live with.

If we beat Wigan on Tuesday, we'll be back in our rightful place (above Spurs ). That would mean we'd have to beat Newcastle to be sure of 4th place. Sorry Novo, we'll try not to make it too painful, though you know us, we'll make it as hard for ourselves as we can.

Oh, I didn't say it was the most likely scenario. It's nothing personal, but while I have no love for any team from London, Spurs have (almost) always been an organization I respect. Arsenal, less so.

Plucky Wigan survive again as it is revealed that Ca$hley & Pardew have been making illegal payments to half of the French league Clubs to force transfers through. Newcastle are deducted 10 points and relegated.
