IF that verbal punch-up is as bad as DS is saying and IF StuBaggs team loses I can't for the life of me see how he will stay

I'm wondering if the punch up stories are just so much hype and actually the incident will be quite tame.
Remember last series when they bigged up Mona's homophobia in the press, but when the episode was aired it was clear they had toned it way down.
Let's assume for a moment that StuBaggs team loses.
What I can see happening is Lord Sugar spending five minutes telling StuBaggs how useless he is and then firing someone else for a relatively minor infraction

b) Don't like each other
c) Probably don't like Stuart, esp Stella
Best result would be their team loses, but Stuart survives with Stella getting the boot.
Even more fun (but not realistic) would be Stella and Liz in a double firing following a bitch fest to rival world war 3”
Seeing as how there are now only three people on each team will all members of the losing team have to go to the boardroom at the end or will the losing PM only have to pick one other person to bring back with them??
Any of the guys should go over the women.
Think StuBaggs may be at his end, but Jamie and Chris just seem kind of stagnated and are struggling to keep their heads above water.
I think Stella might go...Cos Liz and Stuart from the very beginning aren't really bothered about winning, just making sure she's toast (albeit a dry and corporate version than your normal)

I am beginning to think Stella will be saved not because they did better but the horrendous deal Chris made will wipe out his team's profit and he will be toast. (the type that looks good but is really quite bland)
