Ridiculous strike from Rafael against QPR, one of the best this season. 2-0 loss to United isn't a bad result for QPR but if QPR are going to escape relegation we need some miracle results to happen as we are so far back.

Yeah its starting to look like QPR will go, just can't seem to put a consistant run of results together and are a bit adrift.

Reading may well go too, althrough they are improving, which would mean one from Villa, Wigan and maybe Southampton will be the third side to go down, we still have QPR, Reading and Wigan to come, big games. Too close to call.

And so it begins with Harry. Don't like QPR and the business they did prior to Harry coming in but i'd love to see him keep them up.

I wouldn't, and that isn't just because it would benefit my team to see them go down.

Actually don't mind QPR beating Southampton, as they are the only other club that can be dragged into it. All the other results went our way too, all we need now is a point against City on monday and since the title race is pretty much dead and baried they could be kind enough to let us have it...

 

[Dale]

Still on for a mid-table finish, Keith?

It was nice to actually see QPR hold out for a win, I thought that we had screwed it up when Cesar didn't hold onto the ball and allowed them to level things up. Thankfully we scored another goal to take the three points. Not used to seeing QPR score multiple goals at all, was nice seeing Park Ji-Sung performing well again. Still need to win two more games than the teams directly above us and with only three wins for the season that is a tough ask.

 

[Dale]

Not considering the fixtures coming up.

 

[Troy]

We normally throw away games that we should actually win though so I am not that confident. We need to start scoring a lot more if we are to finish with some more wins. 21 goals in 28 games is pathetic.

 

[Gimmick]

Big game today. Probably the biggest NLD in years.

Can't say I'm that confident going into the match. Bale and co. are on really good form at the moment and if every Arsenal player isn't at 100% then they could pick us apart easily. I think this is the first time since becoming an Arsenal fan that I'll take a draw over Spurs. That doesn't feel good.

Maybe lol.

 

[Dale]

Of the championship next season maybe :HHH2:

Thats quite original for you.

Anyway our next two games are Reading away and QPR home, those are the games that will go along way to decide weather we stay up or go down. The concerning thing is that we still have the likes of Man Utd, Liverpool and Chelsea to play, but as long as we win the games against our rivals and and take the odd point elsewhere that should be enough. Its 50-50 if you ask me.

 

[Dale]

Doesn't need to be original, it's a distinct possibility as I said before the season even started you would struggle.

Yeah but you were just doing that to troll imo and it just happens to have come true, you are like the Robbie Savage of WSF and you can take that anyway you want...

 

[Dale]

What's that then, RIGHT in his prediction?
