Putting aside all the more depressing chat today, there’s a huge game for us tonight.

I think I want Norwich to win…

Scenarios are:
Watford win - six points clear, played three games more.
Watford draw - four points clear, played three games more.
Norwich win - five points clear, played five games more.

I think we want a draw. Don’t want Norwich to get momentum

Imagine if Norwich are the ones to survive out of the 4, the one team everyone had dead and buried with no hope.

Definitely don't want Watford going six points clear of us.

A draw deprives both teams of a possible extra two points, so I'll go with that.

Both teams to play an illegible player

8 red cards

A 28 man brawl resulting in several season long bans with the punishment dished out the day after the window closes

and a 0-0 draw

Draw first, then it must always be the lower team winning thereafter.

A Draw, if not a Norwich win, and a game with plenty of red cards and little injuries 😆 🤣 😂 😜

Just shows how quickly things can change with only 1 win doesn't it.

That's why I firmly believe Burnley still have an evens chance of surviving.

As for tonight draw is probably the best outcome for us, keeps both within reach.

0-0 and then stories in the media that both sides have been taking part in illegal betting which means the clubs are docked 20 points each.

Draw followed by a Norwich win. Worst result is Watford win. So the way this season is going it will be 3-0 Watford

Draw but I think Watford will win.

And points deductions too

Draw is always the best result at this time, 2 points shared between the 2 teams rather than one team taking 3 points.

I think I'll watch Death in Paradise rather than tonight's game.

Norwich have the weakest team but probably the best manager of the four teams so whilst I dont think they have enough to survive it would be unwise to discount them

Has to be a draw ... or at worst a narrow Watford win ... as we have Watford to play home and away ... keeping it our own hands

I'd prefer 2 shared points rather than 3 shared points. A few red cards wouldn't go amiss, neither would a few Watford injuries (nothing serious but just enough to keep players out for 3/4 weeks).

My bookie has odds of: home win evens; draw 5/2; away win 11/4 so Norwich clearly well the underdogs. I've had a small punt on the draw.

Gibson starts for Norwich, he could end up having the last laugh at our expense.

What’s that kit Norwich are wearing? I’m having difficulty picking out their players.

DA, you’re a very naughty boy winding folk up like that we all know Newcastle have.

Poor game.
We are Watfords next opponents so a couple of red cards would come in handily, Mike Dean.

Should have got a second yellow there for the clearest dive you’ll ever see.

Decent enough score for us thus far, and neither of these sides look that good, however what's worrying is we are arguably worse than both.

This score line would do in the second half. I’m just hoping we have one of the massive changes in form that we’ve seen over the years. If we can get our steel back we’ve still got a chance. I believe we are a better side than both of these when we’re on it.

Getting back on it though is looking miles off. Fingers crossed.

Poor standard but evenly matched and feisty enough so far. Plenty of late tackles and dives. A red or 2 wouldn't surprise me.

And the team that weren't winning are now on course for their 4th of the season.
