Probably would. Though Newcastle away always had the potential to be a tough game, they're fighting for their lives.

Means jack shit. !Recently updated Odds of Top 4
Arsenal: 94.12%
Us: 77.7%
ManU: 26.7%
West Ham: 5.8%
(Paddy Power and then converted fractional odds to percentages)
Means jack shit. !
Actually it means quite a lot.
Bookmakers do this type of thing for a living. The research they put in should not be under estimated.
They are correct far more often than they are wrong. That's why they make a very lot of money.
What they are saying is that in terms of statistical probability we have a far superior chance of finishing in the top 4
than the rags or the irons.
On this occasion let's hope they are once again correct.

I don't feel optimistic in the slightest.
Arguably tomorrow is more crucial than the Madrid games. But MP will set us up to win or bust for the CL and this will affect our remaining league games.
I can't see how we can win all the remaining games given the stop start season we have had, in fact I'd say it's more or less impossible. Still it will give us more opportunities to win the prem next season and maybe play a lot of EDS in the Europa League.

You can get 10/1 on Stoke winning tomorrow.
Those odds really are over priced.

I'm often tempted to put a tenner on us losing, that way I'd be slightly less pissed off if I won some money. But then the ugly spectre of a draw raises its head, which would be shit as a point at home to Stoke is crap and I wouldn't win any money either.
Is there any way around this, I don't really understand betting. I just want to soften the blow of another lacklustre slow arsed debacle against a shit team under Pellergrini.

You can also get 5/1 for the draw. Do the maths and back both options, say a fiver on Stoke for the win and a tenner on the draw. Total outlay is £15 and as long as City don't win then you are quids in. Of course City may win and you've lost your money but in the grand scheme of things then this will be the best outcome going. I've done it myself and I just call it 'insurance'.I'm often tempted to put a tenner on us losing, that way I'd be slightly less pissed off if I won some money.

Just lay City at Betfair if that's what you really want to do.
