Honestly I think it's 85+ percent likely it's Sunderland, Newcastle, and villa going down. Moves up to 95+ percent if Norwich simply win this weekend against Palace. The only reason I haven't ruled us out is the game in hand the week before Everton potentially playing in fa cup, the GD lead, and the head to head matchup with Norwich yet to come.

With that being said it'd be a very typical Sunderland thing to do to beat Leicster this weekend.

We play LFC a few days after they play Everton, Man City's CL situation plus they play Chelsea 3 days before us means they *could* be resting guys or playing tired players. Spurs may not have anything to play for on the final day.

Palace, Swans, and Villa are all very beatable, and getting a shock result against one of the three I listed above wouldn't be that crazy.

A lot has to happen, and it's very unlikely to all come together, but weirder things have happened. Betting odds are around 6/1 which puts it at 83.5%. A few have 7/1 or 8/1 which is and 85.8% and 87.5% respectfully.

If you were a Newcastle fan you'd be saying these same things right now.

NUFC getting 9 points from palace, Swansea, and villa is also unlikely, doing that and getting a point from Manchester, LFC, Southampton seems borderline impossible.


We're well on our way

Is it wrong to hope Newcastle stay up for another year's worth of The True Geordie Youtube rants?

No, no it's not.
