Would take the hit if it meant Spurs went down.. cannot stand that club. The Geordies of London
I'm the same, I was really happy to see West Ham going down, but if you can substitute them for Spurs then that's amazing.
Would be catastrophic for them, and after the European Super League fiasco kinda just deserts, plus I've got loads of Spurs fans as mates and would love nothing more than talking the piss out of them. Only slight negative would be that Moyes apparently wants to sign Gallagher if they do go, not keen on that.
Yeah Spurs, then West Ham, then Forest for me - rather it was all three but beggars can’t be chooser right?
Would like us to pick up points in this one (note plural)
Hang on a minute, 6th gets champions league if Villa win Europa? Currently, that's Brighton and we have a game in hand over them - we could still do it, surely.
Can't see Barry starting, and he doesn't deserve to either. But what are the other options? George is supposed to be able to play up front, but can't see Moyes going with that. Maybe Ndiaye up top and then George starts on the left?

Beto out with concussion. So we'll either have Barry half arsing it again or he'll bag a hat-trick.
Hopefully starting ignites a fire in him to prove he should have the spot till the end of the season.
Huge game for Barry, up to him now to lay down a marker.
It's amazing how quickly sentiment will change if he puts in a good performance and bags a goal. It's also going to be a very toxic place for him if he phones it in again.
I'm naively looking forward to seeing if he can step up to the challenge.
It's not so much Beto being out that's the problem, more with what we can replace him with.
Might hopefully put the Braiden Graham shouts to be bed if he can't even get on the bench when we've only got one striker fit who doesn't appear to want to be here.
If Barry starts tomorrow, it will define if he has a future with us, I hope he doesn’t take his chance as I think what we’ve seen so far is what he’s ever going to be.
