Sadly I had Stoke staying up courtesy of a less sh*te GD from the Canaries
Tried to be as honest and realistic as possible. We drew at Fulham,Barcodes and at home to Van Judas United,which sadly meant the cants got crownedat our ground.
Still voted 5th because I still think we will shoot ourselves in the foot somewhere. Wigan at home most likely.
at the min chavs winning, city drawing, and manure are losing 2-1

Fergie time will get Manure the winning goal and Tevez just scored
Just redid the predictor and despite all the ups and owns of the weekend I have us finishing 5th. However this depends on us losing to manure. Still think we will as Sir red nose will want to rub our noses in it even if they win tomorrow.
I think we'll be 5th, would rather be 6th but Everton are too far behind to challenge for the unwanted place. Here's to the TNC and even more Sunday games.
Despite the annoyance that was Citeh's capitulation today Chelsea will be disappointed to drop points (especially in those circumstances) and they're really being given a bit much credit as a banker that they still have to go to United and host Spurs and Everton, with Thursday Night Cup games sandwiched between.
If we get 10 points that will be more than enough - it would take an almost perfect set of results for us to get shafted on 73 points and let's be fair if that was likely then neither Spurs nor Chavs would be knocking around with us.
I do think we'll lose to United though and who knows what will happen at Newcastle on the last day, and we're more than capable of throwing away points in the other games (as are Spurs and Chavs in all of their remaining games too) so I'm not saying I'm confident, just that I don't agree with all of these doom and gloom predictions.
It's still anyone's really but given the generally negative predictions for us at Fulham on here and Chelsea dropping points I don't see how this weekend has therefore changed things so negatively for us?
The predictor says 4th on goal difference and how we'll all party on all Summer at the honour of finishing more than 20 points behind the champions but a few goals better off than a team spending £50m less on wages

Positivity ....who'd have thought
I tell you what you there was actually a lot of positivity on here before the season started and after a few games regarding our signings and prospects. I think I'm correct in saying that not a single poster on the long-dead predictions game predicted that we would lose to Chelsea - not even the most miserable bastards on here!
This place might be doom and gloom most of the time but it is after another season of having all hope sucked out of our season again.
I think it will depend on how many more points the chavs and spuds drop, I can't see us winning all our remaining games and if we had to go to Newcastle on the last day needing only a point, I don't think we would get it. Pardew would take great pleasure in fucking us up. I really do fear the worst and if Villa were to sneak a point tonight then we would really be fucked.
I think we need 10 points from the last four games.
The game I fear most is Man Utd at home, if they need a point for the title then they will play all out for a win, if they have already won the title they have nothing to lose and can really go to town on us.
A draw this Sunday will be a huge result for us.
The other three games I am confident; QPR can score with Remy but not great in defence, Wigan will need to attack us and will be open at the back and same for Newcastle.
I think we just sneak fourth, probably by one point, as Chelsea will drop points.
I think we'll blow it, the way we played on Saturday worried me that we were so poor up front.
I really thought City would get at least a point at 5pur2.
I can see us dropping points at home to Utd and away to Utd.
5pur2 have an easy run in, even against Chelski as they'll be running on empty soon.
So I see 5pur2 3rd and Cheski 4th unfortunately.
We've been too pedestrian, and our passing has been far too relaxed and quite often pointless in the past three games. Stupid 1-2's pointless flicks and no pace.
To continue this in our final games will be giving up the place for the 4th place trophy.
