Just wish it was the other way around.Us at home, and Burnley away! Reckon that could be the determining factor this weekend. 😮
Good result v Arsenal - fingers firmly crossed they keep it up

First things first Oz we need Villa to do us a huge favour and then it really is game on - we may need to win to stay up and that concerns me greatly.
Newcastle is in good form and many are playing for spots next year. they will not be a fun game for Burnley. AV at home is not a fun game either. Players playing for next year at last home game.
Not getting too hopeful but not stunning if burnley lose both.
Too many possible outcomes, looks like its all down to Sunday - the dreaded goal difference could play a huge part.
Its all ifs, buts, maybes, but when you think back to those 2-3 matches, we should be across the line by now.
Us Yanks always talk about how we "compete' for everything. Nowhere can this nonsensical tripe be seen better than in sports.
In the US the lowly MLS sets up franchises and awards them on "need". Once selected as an MLS team you are locked in for life. Can lose every tie for 3 years straight and you are still in the top division. The lower division just plays for some of the scraps and hopes someone can come up with enough cash they can buy someone at the MLS enough to be granted a franchise. Almost like a caste system.
Meanwhile in Europe every pro league promotes and relegates. Not likely, but Grimsby could actually make it to the prem. Obviously economics comes into play but the fact is that at the end of the day any club can go up or down. This, of course, excludes our annointed super league teams if they ever get that over the finish line.
Newcastle with a couple of signings and a decent manager look a totally different team, just a shame Eddie Howe wasn't available when we lost Bielsa......though the Yanks would still have wanted their boy in.
