    [Albion] Do you wish we were playing before Cardiff on Saturday?

    If Man U still have something to play for Cardiff won't get anything there. Would prefer the games at same time but think we need to go out to beat Newcastle regardless of what happens at Fulham,

    [Albion] Spurs loss - has that game made you more or less confident that we will stay up?

    Neither, expected a loss. I think the Manchester result tonight could have a bearing. We need Utd to have something to play for on the last day so a win/draw will increase my confidence a notch. It will also likely mean City have nothing to play for but doubt that will have any impact on result

    [Albion] For the Hughton out brigade

    Of course not ... TB would have to take a risk and evaluate that risk/reward against what he has now. If anyone one knows how to take a calculated risk then he does

    [Albion] For the Hughton out brigade

    or .... change the players to accomodate the style (lots of pace and energy to enable very quick breaks) and whatever style we adopt we need to find footballers who know how to pass to one wearing the same shirt!

    [Albion] For the Hughton out brigade

    I think I agree that last point. But I'm not sure that the £5K a week difference between us and Bournemouth (in 12th) is really the reason why there's such a difference in performance. Particulalry when you take out the reported £100K+ a week that Defoe is on it actually makes the numbers about...

    [Albion] For the Hughton out brigade

    I struggle a little with comparing budgets amongst the 'also rans' because of a) the number of players developed via the youth/U23 set up, b) the varying length of contracts and c) when they were signed. I don't think it's as straightforward as adding the ammortised fees and wages of current...

    They're going to get lots of opportunities!

    Well beaten, but hope it doesn't affect Saturday too much

    [Albion] Four Points Needed

    I'm hoping Fulham can keep improving but I've got a horrid feeling we might need a draw at one of the 3 where we're unlikely to get one :annoyed:

    [Albion] Chris hughton news conference

    Yes they had all that possession so the highlights would always be one sided, the game was! I didn't give us a hope before the game but by half time I couldn't really see them scoring. In the second half they got closer but a couple of decent saves (which is what you expect from Ryan) was really...

    [Albion] Chris hughton news conference

    Yes and it was uber painful. But I didn't expect anything else and I was impressed that they stuck to it and were successful. Wolves are no slouches, there was the odd moment, but we looked reasonabley comfortable. It could have gone wrong but it didn't

    [Albion] Chris hughton news conference

    I'm in the out camp and was impressed by Saturday and hope it will allow us to stumble over the line. Credit where credit's due. Still 'out' though :)

    [Football] Premier 20/21st April

    First prize for me is Palarse win :sick: Manure beat City so they are still chasing Champs League on last day and L'pool can't be caught

    [Albion] Man U v Cardiff last game of the season...

    I'd imagine most or many independents would look at the fixtures and think Cardiff will beat Fulham and lose the rest and we maybe get a draw v Newcastle and lose the rest. Realistically we lose the three games to the top 6 but I think Cardiff have opportunities in all of their last 3, a loss...

    [Albion] Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Jordan might want to announce that he'll divi up £2m amongst the fans if they win :) If we we had that game to send Croydon down I can just imagine our fans getting right behind Cardiff

    [Albion] Relegation Odds

    Thankfully Fulham look like they're still playing and I fancy them to beat Cardiff. I really don't expect Palace to do us any favours though. That then leaves that last game and I really hope Man U still have 4th to play for, if not I wouldn't rule out an 'upset'
