Given Newcastle's team I'd be pretty happy for them to batter everyone else around us, promotion is the goal not 1st place.
I reckon:
Newcastle Birmingham
Albion v Leeds
Reading Sheff wed Draw
And that would be absolutely splendid.
I think we'll lose a home match sooner or later following a dodgy refereeing decision and NSC will go into meltdown. Hopefully not this week!
It would indeed but Leeds looked impressive beating Villa the other night. Not going to be a foregone conclusion.
Got to say for the first time in awhile I'm not optimistic about a match. Leeds are in good form, Monk has got them playing well and we have been underperforming of late. A win on friday would be a very good one indeed should we achieve it.
I didn't think they looked all that special, and Villa were definitely below par. But we've been fairly unimpressive since the break and so this could go either way.
Hopefully we'll get back to decent stuff and widen the gap
On to watching the points dropped around usIt would be fantastic to bank the 3 points on Friday night, and then relax and watch the points dropped all around us on Saturday.
Come on albion, you know that is an absolutely sound strategy.
Hoping for Reading and Birmingham defeats.
I'd favour draws all round.
Can't see anything other than wins for Norwich and Villa, but maybe Forest can get something at Derby tomorrow.
I wouldn't underestimate the passions involved in this derby. I think the fixture has 'draw' written all over it.Can't see Derby dropping points and I am firmly of the belief they will be the third team in the mix come May.
