WBA fans booed the team off at the weekend, and reports say fans are turning against Pulis.

Players are still playing for contracts and team places, plus the higher you finish the more the club get.

Let's not worry about others and do the job ourselves, its in our hands, by a whole 6 points and goal difference, if we squander all that now, we deserve to go down.

Swansea can still get 41 points, so as it stands right up to Leicester in 11th could go down.

I wouldn't mind being in their position at the present time.After getting to be 'Safe' they have 'Gone off the boil', losing the last 4 games and not scoring in the last 5 games.Rondon has scored since December and he hasn't been prolific this season.

Couldn't agree more. In fact, I read a few quotes from Pulis last week-end, which made it clear that he's bloody angry and was all too conscious that league positions mean money (in which of course he has an ongoing interest). He wants every point he can get.

So we are saying Mr Pulis has the integrity to not get any satisfaction in our relegation, in light of his paying back of bonus and legal costs?

Looks like they have already downed tools. No point worrying until after Saturdays game!

West Ham are only in the mix if Swansea win against Everton. Also a point in the next or 3 game would mean that Swansea need 3 wins. No slip ups .

A 10 point deduction for financial irregularities would see them wave goodbye to the Prem.

They're most definitely owed one, after the Tevez debacle. But the league bottled it then, so they'll bottle it now.

 


We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

Man Utd winning, which is good news for us if it goes to the last game

I don't know all the details but I agree, can't see it happening.

As much as I'd like to see West Ham go down, the scenario needed for it to happen would most likely involve a bum clenching finish for us too. Unless of course we beat Man City (I won't hold my breath). I'd rather Swansea and Hull both lost their next game so we can relax, the by-product of which is West Ham also being safe.

A points deduction is the only way it'd happen and a) I don't think they'll get one and b) even if they did, they usually get applied in the following season don't they?

Hammers out of the mix. Beat Spurs tonight which makes them mathematically safe, which is irritating, but it also means that Spurs are done for the year and so will have nothing to play for against Hull.

We'll need to get points ourselves off Hull or the Manchesters. As Pedro Cerrano put it so succinctly: "F*** you , Jobu! I do it myself!"

That is just so typical of Spurs.
