So how realistic is it that Newcastle will get relegated? If we take Derby out of the equation, because they’re all but mathematically in the Championship, that leaves us with the following teams in danger of the drop:
Middlesbrough
Wigan
Reading
Newcastle
Sunderland
Birmingham
Bolton
Fulham
Next are my predictions of the above teams’ fixtures and results, for their final games in the Premiership this season.
Middlesbrough
Villa Vs M’bro = 0
Arsenal Vs M’bro = 0
M’bro Vs Derby = 3
Chelsea Vs M’bro = 0
M’bro Vs Man Utd = 0
Spurs Vs M’bro = 0
M’bro Vs Bolton = 1
Sunderland Vs M’bro = 1
M’bro Vs Portsmouth = 3
M’bro Vs Man City = 1
Points from remaining games: 9pts
Wigan
Wigan Vs Bolton = 1
Blackburn Vs Wigan = 1
Portsmouth Vs Wigan = 0
Wigan Vs B’ham = 0
Chelsea Vs Wigan = 0
Wigan Vs Spurs = 0
Wigan Vs Reading = 3
Villa Vs Wigan = 0
Wigan Vs Man Utd = 0
Points tally from remaining games: 5pts
Reading
Liverpool Vs Reading = 0
Reading Vs B’ham = 0
Reading Vs Blackburn = 1
Newcastle Vs Reading = 1
Reading Vs Fulham = 3
Arsenal Vs Reading = 0
Wigan Vs Reading = 0
Reading Vs Spurs = 1
Derby Vs Reading = 3
Points tally from remaining games: 9pts
Newcastle
B’ham Vs Newcastle = 0
Newcastle Vs Fulham = 3
Spurs Vs Newcastle = 0
Newcastle Vs Reading = 1
Portsmouth Vs Newcastle = 0
Newcastle Vs Sunderland = 1
West Ham Vs Newcastle = 1
Newcastle Vs Chelsea = 0
Everton Vs Newcastle = 0
Points tally from remaining games: 6pts
Sunderland
Sunderland Vs Chelsea= 0
Villa Vs Sunderland = 0
Sunderland Vs West Ham = 3
Fulham Vs Sunderland = 0
Sunderland Vs Man City = 1
Newcastle Vs Sunderland = 1
Sunderland Vs M’bro = 1
Bolton Vs Sunderland = 0
Sunderland Vs Arsenal = 0
Points tally from remaining games: 6pts
Birmingham
Portsmouth Vs B’ham = 1
B’ham Vs Newcastle = 3
Reading Vs B’ham = 3
B’ham Vs Man City = 1
Wigan Vs B’ham = 3
B’ham Vs Everton = 0
Villa Vs B’ham = 1
B’ham Vs Liverpool = 0
Fulham Vs B’ham = 3
B’ham Vs Blackburn = 1
Points tally from remaining games: 16pts
Bolton
Wigan Vs Bolton = 1
Man Utd Vs Bolton = 0
Bolton Vs Man City = 1
Bolton Vs Arsenal = 0
Villa Vs Bolton = 0
Bolton Vs West Ham = 1
M’bro Vs Bolton = 1
Spurs Vs Bolton = 0
Bolton Vs Sunderland = 3
Chelsea Vs Bolton = 0
Points tally from remaining games: 7pts
Fulham
Fulham Vs Everton = 0
Newcastle Vs Fulham = 0
Derby Vs Fulham = 3
Fulham Vs Sunderland = 3
Reading Vs Fulham = 0
Fulham Vs Liverpool = 0
Man City Vs Fulham = 0
Fulham Vs B’ham = 0
Portsmouth Vs Fulham = 1
Points tally from remaining games: 7pts
So, from those results we can establish the respective teams’ final league-table standing:
12) B’ham 42pts
13) M’bro 38pts
14) Reading 38pts
15) Newcastle 34pts
16) Sunderland 33pts
17) Bolton 32pts
18) Wigan 32pts
19) Fulham 27pts
20) Derby ?pts
So, basically Newcastle live to fight another season, and either Bolton or Wigan go down.
Obviously it's all a bit of fun, I don't know what the results are going to be (otherwise I'd be straight down Laddie-B's) and all that.
So what do you ladies and gentlemen think?
Middlesbrough
Wigan
Reading
Newcastle
Sunderland
Birmingham
