Another Sunderland player's contract terminated.

This time for completely different reasons.

Sixteen years since an Englishman last won the Premier League golden boot.

Sheringham scored a few in 2001. I'm sure he got the player of the year, that season.

We shouldnt be that depressed, its a similar story in Spain.

Norwich -v- Newcastle has the feeling of 'do or die' about it

Sunderland v West Brom would suggest three points to Sunderland, but you never know with WBA.

Seems like at least a month since we had a Premier League game, what with Easter coming in between.

The final furlong.

Arsenal have a home banker tomorrow, Spurs go to Utd, and Leicester entertain the Saints.

Do you think? Watford knocked them out the cup at the Emirates two weeks ago.

If neither Newcastle or Sunderland win tomorrow, then they are in big sh*t. If Norwich win tomorrow I think they are 75% safe. They play Sunderland at home, and apart from a trip to Arsenal, could target all their remaining games to get points. In fact, on pure form, if Norwich get 3 tomorrow and beat a Palace team that has taken 2 points in 12 games after, they could probably even afford to lose to Sunderland and stay up

I reckon the Gooners will win by a couple at least. Watford's league season is all but done, and Arsenal have to win.

The really interesting potential dynamic this season is "are Palace safe"???? That 5 point gap looks huge, but you look at their form and their remaining games, and I struggle to see where they are picking up enough points to significantly distance themselves.

They go to West Ham tomorrow, which is a tough game against a team hunting that top 4 spot
They also go to the Emirates, Old Trafford, Saints, Newcastle in a potential relegation 6 pointer, and play at home to Stoke

With 2 points in 12 matches, those games against Norwich, Everton and Watford are pretty cruicial at home.... lose two of those, especially to Norwich, and lose to Newcastle along with the expected loses to the top half teams, they are bang in trouble

And I just cant see them beating anyone at the moment, they have been hopeless. They are coming under pressure increasingly, and that can make a big difference.

Might be worth a fiver on them taking the drop.

the demise of palace is what I pray for on a daily basis
