On current form City's only chance of survival is if the teams below them continue losing, which is unlikely to happen.

Agree in a way but with Cousin back next week today in sounded like we attacked very well just silly mistakes that led to there 3 goals

Next week and against Stoke are must win's hopefully Stoke will do us a favour by holding on against Newcastle

Well that didn't happen.

4 points off the drop.

They aren't a good enough team simply because we have a championship squad - if you look at how much each teams squad is worth city are bottom by a long way; our squad is worth £17 million and the next one above is over £30 million - you just simply cant compete with the extra funds teams have

When all's said and done, City are 4 points clear of the drop with 6 games to go and we'd have take that at the start of the season.

Stoke have been pretty poor away from home so maybe we might get that elusive win that will all but make us safe.

Fuller and Beattie will do a job on hull. but think Hull will score a couple too, think it will be a draw between us, which will see us both safe I hope

Not looking good is it.

If Stoke are safe when they play City, it would be in their interest too let City win, so that next season they have another rubbish team which should finish below them.

If that is the case then they should want Newcastle to survive.

FWIW I would much prefer castle to go down, all this bleating about the fans deserving better etc etc, big club etc etc, loyal support etc etc its all bull.

ps sounds like another team that play in black and white !!

only kidding FC fans

It's a shame your rabble are practically safe, I'd love to see them relegated. I've never really felt apprehensive (for my personal safety) at a football match/pre and post match, apart from when watching England abroad for the first time three years ago when I was 16. That changed on Saturday though after our visit to the hole that is Stoke. What a horrible set of cretins that you have following your club.

I'll be attending the Sunderland game on Saturday (complete with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle costume) and as I'm not a City fan I'll be having some money on them to win just so that I will have to cheer them on

I still think me and Jonny made the right call choosing to meet you in the Toon afterwards rather than go to this, it would have been hell for us.

Come on Sunderland

HUGE game today.

Not sure what result I want personally, probably a draw.

Proper 6 pointer, come on city!!

Bye Bye City.

Oh dear. A goal down.

We are up street

Could well be right!

Thought this was now "a football city"?!

Football will shortly take a back seat again in this city. I forecast crowds of less than 10,000 watching city again within 2 seasons.

Aye, there'll be a lot of people with "work committments" next season!

Very bizarre interview between David Burns and Phil Brown.
