So, who's going to be joining West Ham in the Championship next season? Two from Blackburn (15th, 40pts, play Wolves A), Wolves (16th, 40pts, play Blackburn H), Birmingham (17th, 39pts, play Tottenham A), Blackpool (18th, 39pts, play Man United A) or Wigan (19th, 39pts, play Stoke A). Good luck Olly
Blackpool and Birmingham have the hardest fixtures. Totenham still have something to play for, so Birmingham i think will be relying on Wigan and Blackpool to lose. A draw for wigan should be enough. Really, if 1 team wins they're probably safe. What is asonishing is everyone always said about 2 years that 35 points is the safety mark, then last year it was 40 and this year Blackpool can still go down with 42. I'll say Blackpool and Birmingham.
Mystic Mog foresees Wolves and Blackburn serenely playing out a 0-0 draw whilst Birmingham, Blackpool and Wigan all score last minute winners.... Carlsberg don't do survival Sundays....
I'd like to see Blackburn and any one of the others, excluding Blackpool, go down. Apparently if two sides end exactly equal there will be a tie break on a neutral ground. How many of them would settle for that now?
Birmingham are down they will lose to spurs Wigan are safe they will beat Stoke Blackpool are I am afraid to say are favourites unless they win but I have this feeling it will happen as Fergie does like Ollie and with Charlie Adams as bait me thinks we are in for a surprise. Therefore my next favourites are Blackbum because Wolves are playing well lately, but that is more of a wish, as their season has been very eratic.
I can see Blackpool, Birmingham and Wigan ALL losing. Blackpool's only hope will be to lose to Man U by less than Birmingham lose to Spuds.
Hopefully Wigan, who play dire football and Birmingham. Would love to see Ollie at LR next year. He will get a hero's welcome.
If Blackpool stay up, I wouldn't want to be the 4th official at the QPR V Balckpool matches. Good luck calming down Warnock and Holloway.
My predictions,so help me Wolves 1 Blackburn 2 Tottenham 1 Birmingham 1 Man Utd 3 Blackpool 2 Stoke 1 Wigan 1.
That all really went wrong quickly. There is still time for the scores to change. Come on Blackpool.....
In a season where the Rs and AFC Wimbledon triumph the only sadness is the demise of Ollie's Blackpool. What a great shame. Gutted for them.
