Pearce: "I said some months ago it is going to be very tight right to the end of the season, probably up until the last game. At the moment for me, any three teams from eight could be relegated, and we are one of the eight.
Pearce Insists Newcastle ARE In A Relegation Battle!
Pearce: "I said some months ago it is going to be very tight right to the end of the season, probably up until the last game. At the moment for me, any three teams from eight could be relegated, and we are one of the eight.
"I knew that at Christmas and I certainly know it now. We have some tough matches between now and the end of the season, but when you have to win matches, every game is a tough game, and that applies to any of the eight teams at the bottom of the table.
"Newcastle are one of the eight - we are a point behind them.
"With Charlton and West Ham winning today, they have condensed the teams above them very tightly and Sheffield United v Newcastle is a massive game next week and us against Charlton is a massive game.
"There is a hell of a lot to play for."
