    If we win and still go down with 44 points, it will be highest point total ever relagated from the premeirship.

    The last two weeks I watched the matches not knowing the result, don't think I have the will power not to look this week.

    SUCKAGE!!!

    I'm going ot be at my Mother in law's surprise party.

    oh this just sucks to no end.

    What am I going to do?

    Maybe my brother can tape it for me? My brother is very cool. Probably the coolest older brother ever.

    Color me an idiot for getting the date wrong.

    Title should read May 11.

    I, for one, wont be able to wait until the TV broadcast. I will be sweating it out with West Ham audio.

    Maybe a stupid question but, West Ham and Bolton's matches are being played simultaneously, aren't they? My local soccer pub is showing Birmingham-West Ham first and Bolton-Middlesbrough second. I imagine it will be easy to determine the result of match 2 by the post game reactions of West Ham players and fans. Or is the Bolton match really played later?

    That I understood. I was trying to figure out if I would bother watching the Bolton match. Since the outcome of that match should be clear by the reactions of the West Ham players and fans, I'll probably skip it.

    Best of luck,this weekend!!! As a Man City fan,I'll be looking forward to hearing the WBFs (Whinging Bolton Fans) on local radio come 4.55 on sunday!!
    (Sorry Prenn!!)The Prem needs West Ham & West Ham needs the Prem...I've got a feeling that if you avoid relegation,Di Canio will still be there next season.

    You're doing a lot of sucking up to your older brother. Is he on the boards too?

    It does suck that the game falls on Mothers Day. I'll be out at my mothers place and they don't have FSW.

    I hope the Irons stay up so Joe Cole doesn't end up with ManUre or some side like that.

    I think I love my soccer station - it's not cable, it's free to air, and they're showing the Brum game LIVE! I love them. 2 hours to go and I need a smoke, I'm so nervous.
