The Great Escape The Great Escape from seestyle's blog

The team at the bottom of the Premier League at Christmas always goes down (apart from West Brom in 2005, but lets not let facts get inthe way of a good argument).So what are the chances of Rovers bucking the trend? 50/50 according to new a sistant manager, Eric Black Anthony Mack Jersey (no relation).With sixteen games left, its probably a bit too early to start making bold predictions, but (and I cant believe Im about to write this) Rovers will survive just.A quick study of the bottom fives remaining fixtures gave me a bottom three of Wigan, Wolves and QPR, with Rovers escaping by a single Duke Johnson Jersey point. A closer look at all the teams told me different. In the spirit of not making bold predictions, Wigan will go down. They got lucky last season, Anthony Lawrence II Jersey but the downward trend has continued and when average Championship players like Nicky Maynard turn you down, the games really up.Wolves have been through it all before but have a difficult looking run-in, and I can see them battling Wigan for bottom spot.Which leaves one spot remaining QPR, Bolton or Rovers? The fixtures told me QPR, but the appointment of Mark Jimmy Graham Jersey Hughes looks a master-stroke. With money to spend, the Hoops will survive.Bolton probably have the easiest run-in with several winnable home games but seeing how theyve struggled with Gary Cahill in the team, you cant help but think theyve got a job on their hands without him.As for Rovers despite everything going on at the club, theyve somehow kept in touch with the teams around them. The performances against Fulham and Everton were good, Miami Hurricanes Jersey and if they carry that forward into the run-in they have a chance.While it looks like Formica is being sacrificed to calm the bank down, it seems Hoilett and Samba will stay at least until the end of the season. If they can find a way to tighten up at the back, they can win games with the likes of Yakubu in the team.Its not difficult to imagine one from Fulham, Everton, Reggie Wayne Jersey Swansea or West Brom being dragged into the battle either, so theres still much to play for.However, putting my neck firmly on the line, it will be goodbye to Wigan, Wolves and Bolton. Remember where you heard it first.
