Who will be relegated from the Premiership?

Add you comments about the bottom of the premiership to this tread.

I'd like to see Newcastle, Middlesbrough and Sunderland go down, however, West Brom are doomed so I hope Middlesbrough stay up from the north east as they are boring.

Newcastle vs Leeds in the Champaionship next season.

If we want to play at sixfields this year we need to pull our fingers out of our arses!!! we need to start playing as a team and the attitude of the team in general needs to change! we cant go on thinking we can beat anyone when we play like that as shown on sunday! more effort needed and better turnouts at training!!!

Penalty Kick - Did you know ...

Bob Taylor — Sun, 5 Oct 2008 20:30:00 GMT

Did you know ...

If the kicker plays the ball twice (including following up a rebound off the goalpost not touched by the goalkeeper), an indirect free kick is awarded against his side, from where the offence occurred as is usual for free kicks (Subject to Law 8)

An own goal may not be scored by the kicking team, although this would be almost impossible since the ball has to be kicked in a forward direction to be a valid penalty kick. If the ball were to wind up in the kicking team's goal (for example, if the kick were to ricochet off the defending team's goalpost, travel the length of the pitch, and go into the opposite goal), a corner kick would be awarded to the defending team. An own goal can result off a penalty if the defending goalkeeper (or another member of the defending side) were to deflect a stopped or errant shot into the defending team's goal.

Formation 4-4-2 or 4-1-4-1

Hello,

I thought I would start this thread about formations, why not put in your suggestions and thoughts?

Relegation - Newcastle or Spurs?

Bob Taylor — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 21:03:54 GMT

I think Newcastle are more likely to be playing Championship football next year.

Who will win the Premiership 08/09?

Bob Taylor — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 12:55:57 GMT

Early indications show Chelsea have started strongest.

Stoke, Wigan and West Brom will be relegated, Portsmouth and Hull will be in the relegation dogfight.

This years overachievers: Spurs - top half finish

This years underachivers: Blackburn - no cup runs, bottom half finish.
