Hopefully Newcastle will secure a win this weekend to save themselves so we don't have to endure 90 minutes of panic on the last day.
I'm lucky enough to be going to the Newcastle game and I'd rather be there enjoying it than shitting myself!

Have a sneaky feeling that Wigan can lose this game and still stay up if they don't get hammered at our place Where that becomes relevant to us is how it might change their gameplan for Tuesday night - if Norwich for example (2 tricky fixtures for them imo) happen to lose this weekend at home to baggies then they will face citeeh knowing that at the same time a Wigan win v villa (in Wigan) would leave them level on pts so goal difference would be crucial. Now if you were in martinez's shoes would you play for a draw if Norwich lose v baggies ? I know if I was in his shoes I certainly would be very aware of goal difference so maybe Wigan won't be as gung ho as most of ye think ?
Mind you after all that, I still believe that we will wallop them on Tuesday night and the Geordies will be safe by the time we play them too. Doesn't Lady Luck always shine on arseole wenker ?

Should we as a "classy club" give Wigan a guard of honour as they come out for having won the FA Cup or should we ignore that fact and if we pretend it didn't happen it will all just go away ?
I seem to remember Wigan fans being very sporting for the last game at Highbury - show some class Arsenal and give them a bit of respect before tearing their arses off (hopes, fingers crossed)

What would be funny is if city relegate Wigan by failing to beat norwich
If Stoke get a draw with the Spuds tomorrow then any win against Wigan and its pants explosion time as the virtual trophy will be secured barring a 15 goal disaster at St James's Park
I better get down the butcher's in the week.

Thursday nights will be great. A cup we can win, £30m less in the pocket of our greedy *word censored* owner and the shame for Wenger and Gazidis of playing in front of a half empty stadium. If they think fans grumble a bit now wait till we're playing in the ITV4 Cup against Wisla Krakow
Tbh, if we turn up with our lethargic and pedestrian tippy tappy bollocks, I can see Wigan getting something from the game.
I was impressed with Kone, Maloney, Macmanaman, Espinoza and their keeper today, against Citeh.

theres a few wigan players who would slot into our team a piece of piss even if only through hard graft.we will get turned over tuesday,mark my words
Wigan will be knackered and fall away in the last 20 minutes when we could secure a 2-1 win to seal the greatest achievement in Wenger's career....the 4th placed trophy in the weakest PL competition for donkey's years
