I think what'll happen is that Spam will lose and then with everything in front of us we will lose to Chavs as well, and we'll go into the final day 2 points up, just needing one point to assure survival

This doesn't fill me with confidence tbh
We wouldn't be anywhere near this position if we weren't running a hospital but there we are.
That ls how I think it will be. Hence the three points against Leeds would have put us all out of this long running exercise in stress management which will peak on Sunday week.
I struggle to see west ham losing to Newcastle. Newcastle have nothing to play for.
I think we'll match both West Ham's results....
Lose or draw our away games (Newcastle/Chelsea) and both win our final home games...
Would be enough, but there will be a period of time when someone scores first, and the positions change....
We just need to hold our nerve....
Neither did Leeds on Monday...
Didn't stop them from putting in a performance!
I wouldn't be surprised if we both end up drawing our penultimate game, then it still goes to our home games, and Sky get the Final Day Showdown they've been planning for months!
It rarely works like that. They are professional footballers live on TV around the world to millions , a big crowd at the stadium . Professional pride , new contracts / pay rises at stake.
For the most part , its just a myth about teams being on the beach.

wouldn't surprise me if they have bonuses based on league position
Don't stress yourselves trying to predict which Newcastle will show up:
1- Might be professionals and give it a go and really try to win it.
2- Might just not be up to it and thinking of the summer beaches or the World Cup and at the first sign of challenge they fold.
The manager can talk all they want, if the players' hearts are not in it, the fans don't care, then nothing can be done about it.
Let's just wait and see how to unfolds. Believe me, there will be more than enough time to moan and weep about it, if needed. Hopefully they show up one last time for their home crowd.

I won't be able to stand it if they stay up, can you imagine how smug Danny Dyer is going to be?
And bonuses for winning, goals, clean sheets, etc.
I’m sure they do but unlikely to be material compared to base salary. I’m sure CL qualification and PL title attract big bonuses
The pressures off and they can relax and take risks and put on a show for their last game of the season.
Aston Villa didn't really have too much to play for yesterday you might argue.
Let’s hope Howe uses their example to his players, not that I think he will need to.
Newcastle favourites but they have some dodgy season stats which are a slight worry.

If we can’t get 1 point from the last two, then we deserve it tbh.
Do i think spammers have got a tough game against newcastle? Yes i do.
But i feel they have a little trump card thats being overlooked. Lets say the game is edging towards a draw, they have Callum Wilson to come on for the last 10 mins. A guy who knows how to score goals, late ones at that, and he also knows what its like to play in that ground.
That does kinda give me the jitters a bit.
Ultimately though, if we do our job too, then were fine, but thats not always the case with us is it
