D Day.

It is the day of reckoning for the Toon.

I have said since last November that we were for the drop but it all hinges on the last game.

****ing bricks ...........

I have a christening to go to as well for a member of the extended family that I don't want to go to .....

i think from the guide I saw in the paper you guys have the safest route as I don't really see Sunderland or Hull beating either of their opponents.

Good luck mate

Fingers crossed for the Toon - my adopted city.

My team are involved in a nail biter today too. My team, the Bhoys (Celtic) have to beat the Jambos (Hearts) at home and the Huns (Rangers) need to lose or draw away to the Arabs (Dundee United) for us to win the SPL.

Easy.

I'm off soon to get some beers in for the match. The sensible diet can bugger off today, it's pizza and beers for the match

I'll be switching between Setanta 1 and Setanta 2 nervously during the match

Luckily for you Stan we've got third place sewn up irrespective of todays results so that might make it a slightly easier game than if we were fighting to keep a place. I'd like to see Hearts win but on balance I'd prefer Celtic to win the title than Rangers so I'm not going to be deeply upset if your lot win.

Good luck to Newcastle, the EPL would look a bit strange without them.

I'm in two minds, I've always had a soft spot for Newcastle but the amount of **** my Newcastle based friends have given me over the past few years for Birminghams yoyo based antics, well lets just say that revenge would be sweet.

i'm not looking forward to this afternoon, no matter which side wins....

I'm hoping Celtic can pull it back, but frankly dropping a 7 point lead it's our own bloody fault if we don't.

I know, it's like a mirror image of the end of last season.

Here's my supplies for the match and the rest of the day too - either celebrating or drowning of sorrows.

Right, I'm off to watch the match.

I unfortunately want Newcastle to come down so that I can have a weekend away visiting Kelly and co!

(sorry!)

Bugger!

The 'gers go 1-0 up
