Thankfully, the program for the last round dictates we will.
Hull couldn't be Man U could they? :shock:

I'm predicting the Toon will get a draw with Villa to survive.
Cats will lose to Chelsea.
Hull will lose to United and they'll go down.


With the CL Final not far away, Man U could well rest the likes of Ronaldo, Rooney, Tevez, Vidic etc mate ;)

Although even then I'd still tip Man U lol


I am tipping Hull to win,this is the biggest game of their lives and against a side that 4 days later plays in the CL final.

I'm happy if Hull win, as long as Toon lose!

That's right, as 17th for Sunderland won't make a lick of difference for next season.

Somewhat contentious result overnight though.

After watching the WBA v Liverpool game Sunday night, I was quite impressed with Brunt for the Baggies. Will there be any interest from teams to keep him in the Premier League? He's been gold for my fantasy team these last few weeks! :D

As for Ledley, Everton want him for 3.5 mill... they better offer more than that.


don't worry about Ledley RM. I heard at the club today that Eagles is a done deal to Everton £4m. Apparently it has been a done deal for more than 2 months.

Talk about ambition Clarets :twisted: Hope it is only a rumour, but they guy telling me the tale usually is on the money

Put your money on it Connie. this is a big opportunity for the Tigers.

Bassong has lost his appeal so is out this week and Boro's Stuart Downing is out with a foot injury (as reported here 1st ;) )

yeah the odds are great for a hull win. Im putting 100 bucks on it today for them to win :D . Remember a few seasons ago when man united won the title with 1 week to go and they played west ham united at OT and got beaten there, think tevez was still playing for west ham at that stage

Not only was he playing for them Bully, he scored the winning goal. And sent Sheffield Utd down to boot. That's what all the hoo haa has been about leading to the Hammers shelling out an estimated £10m to the Blades in an out of court settlement.

Funnily, United drew at West Ham on the last day of the 1994/5 season when the b4st4rds won the title. B4st4rds lost at Liverpool that day and United needed to win to take the title.

Black, black day in footballing history. b4st4rds won the title and the clarets were relegated to the 33rd tier after only one season in the 2nd tier. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

That match is the crucial one in the relegation battle.

LOL I often sit on the Viewers choice menu with 4 games going at once, and just flick between them when one of the teams goes forward.
