This team is certainly not too good to go down.
Is it good enough to stay up ?

I'm not sure. We were swept away on Sunday. 2nd best in every department. Conceding 40 seconds after equalising is the things relegation side do.

Yep, if a team managed by Brian Clough and containing Pearce, Clough jnr, Woan and Keane can get relegated then this current side certainly can do.

There are a few similarities, the team of 93 didn't have a decent striker either and we were toothless upfront despite some pretty approach play and having some seriously good players in the team.
What's better this time around is the back 4 (in 93 we had Chettle and Tiler) and Vitor needs to get back to being hard to beat and stop conceding soft goals. You may not like Dyche but for the most part we had a tight defence with him.

Striped home shirt too.

Biggest factor. We're doomed!

No Shippos or Bob Rosario so we are safe.

I think this is becoming a race between who is the better manager, with the worst going down.
Vitor Pereira v Igor Tudor

We'll be able to see if Tudor is inpacting them tonight.

Alot of talk about are we too good to go down, it'll be incredible that a team with Spain's first choice right back, world cup winning centre half in Romero, the talented van der ven and spence/udogie back line gets relegated.

difficult one to call looking at the remaining fixtures.

Arguably Leeds have the easiest run in ... ours is pretty tricky West Hams looks tough as does Spurs....

This one is going to the wire...

Think last night proved that looking at fixture lists means bugger all.

Taken points off Liverpool, Man City, Arsenal, Man Utd

No points off Everton and Brighton.

Impossible to predict game by game
