What will probably happen is that we will lose against Wigan (spuds fans will be touching cloth all week with the 4th place trophy in their grasp), then beat Newcastle at the weekend, with the Spuds losing to Sunderland.

Naturally, they will all cry foul, talk about how much of a disgrace it is, that Pardew should be sacked, investigated, yada yada yada. They will all calm down after a few days and that will be that.
