I want Birmingham and Blackburn to go down as I can't stand how boring they are too watch. However I think its far more likely that Blackpool will be heading down with Birmingham rather than Blackburn

I'm also considering who is more likely to bounce back up - as they will make it more likely that West Ham will stay down for a while. Can't get away from Brum and Blackburn, for footballing reasons, management reasons and keeping West Ham down reasons.

I want Birmingham to go down because we are playing them and I would like to see us win our last game in style (which would most likely lead to their relegation)

after them Wolves or Blackburn.

For footballing reasons I'd prefer to see Birmingham and Blackburn go down, for all the reasons people have mentioned before. Both clubs are boring sods, and I'd particularly like Blackburn to go down as it would teach the chicken idiots who run the club a valuable lesson.

I like Wigan because of Martinez and Whelan, but a club that's been in the big time for five years and still can't fill a relatively small stadium is no loss in the long run. Happy to see them go down. Would also happily take N'Zogbia as winger backup, even though he showed at Newcastle that he can be a bit of a prick if he isn't playing.

I don't know if I want any of the players at the relegation threatened clubs, though I certainly don't think Foster is as bad as some people on here are suggesting. He's a pretty solid keeper; as opposed to Green, who really is shit.

His command of the box? Shot stopping? Error prone?

Decent shot stopper, not particularily commanding of his box, makes far more errors than people actually make out at times and has a serious problem judging the bounce from opposition goal kicks.

:)

He's been pretty decent when I've seen him this season.

If we were to replace Gomes with a PL goalkeeper, would you have any preference?

There are not many PL keeper better than Gomes, unfortunately there a lot more who are more reliable. For me only Reina, Cech and Hart would be worth getting, none of which are realistic.

Gomes reminds me of a Fabien Barthez that's even better at making great saves but even more liable to do something stupid

:razz: since he struggles to judge goalkicks from Robbo and we seem to agree on Blackburn going down, then no problem :clap:

I'd like Wolves to stay up just because of Mick McCarthy, Blackpool and Wigan too for there style of football.

Birmingham are boring and I'd like Spurs to have a goal fest against them, Blackburn because there have some exciting youngsters imo we can pinch oh and for ripping us off for Bentley.

I'm just chuffed Wet Spams gone down ha ha haaa

I'm not sure I understand the logic in wanting Blackburn relegated due to Sam Allardyce. Kind of vindicates the repellent slug and his approach, doesn't it?

Rovers have begun to play decent football in recent weeks. It's still a turd-polishing exercise but there is a nice little group of young players, proper players, there and I'm very interested to see what Kean can do with them next season. They've also largely stopped kicking people (strangely coinciding with no longer selecting Keith "How the fuck did he ever play in the Premier League" Andrews)

Wolves, likewise. McCarthy ditches the ugly stuff they produced in the first half of the season and they look pretty good. I've several of their games in the last couple of months and they are not a thuggish side. They pass and move nicely. Yeah, they won't get pushed around but that's about all that separates them from Wigan, so fair play to them.

Birmingham must be sacrificed, and toodle-oo to Ollie and his tangerine dreamers. If Swansea come up there's a better footballing side anyway.

Is there any way West Ham can get relegated again? It was so funny the first time round that it deserves a replay.

When I was fifteen I saw Spurs Vs. West Ham at the Lane, we won and after the game I got a bag of chips. Then three drunk Hammer's fans lurched over to me and tried to have a go, luckily a few Spurs fans stepped in and helped me out.

I added this to the list of reasons why I don't like West Ham.
