Will we qualify for the Champions League? Sadly not...
thewellander replied to Rich's topic in Football
I can see Spurs losing to Fulham. If we beat Everton, I think we have a decent shot at 4th place. But just to be in contention on the last day is a remarkable accomplishment and I'll thoroughly enjoy Europa League next year if we don't make it to the Champions League. -

All is forgiven if they hold this lead. -
After last summer's US tour, probably not! Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. I seem to remember it being an overall bad experience for them.
-
I'm debating whether I'll take the short drive to see Liverpool vs Toronto. I detest Liverpool, but I do still have some affection for Enrique and wouldn't mind seeing him play.

Just heard that Liverpool are expected to play against Toronto FC in July and it got me wondering if there are any rumours regarding NUFC's summer plans. Has anyone heard anything about whether or not they plan to return to North America this summer?

Our final three games are tough, but they're coming at the right time. Chelsea will have come off a lot of tough games and could potentially be playing in the FA Cup final three days after we meet them. Manchester City will likely have nothing left to play for, and same goes for Everton. If we can get 4 or 6 points from the next two games and we're still in the mix, I think we have a legit shot at it, particularly if Liverpool knock of Everton and we know that we've already qualified for Europa League. It's definitely exciting times. Who would have seen this coming? -
I officially love this man. He's the player we've been looking for over the past years.

It would be massive for us to qualify for the Europa League. I'll be very disappointed if things conspire against us and we don't get in. I understand why some might not want the extra games, but there are some great potential match-ups and it would likely help to quell all of the talk of players leaving which is bound to happen the second the transfer window opens.

100% agree. -

I don't think that he actually took a dive. I think he just fell over. But that's just my opinion. We'll never truly know what his intention was. -
Personally, I wish that Reina hadn't gotten the red card. He's going to be suspended for the FA Cup semi-final, I believe, and we need Liverpool to win it to get us into Europe with sixth place. I want Liverpool's best players out there, brimming with confidence. At the moment, I don't see them beating Everton, and that could mean disaster for us, depending on how the other semi-final and the race for 4th goes.

Everything about that announcement makes me happy. Well done.

If he did come back, hopefully it would show Tiote, Ba and the others being linked away from our club, that life isn't always better on the other side. At the end of the day, if we could get him back, he'd likely be a decent player for us alongside Ba, so I'd be happy to have him. -

I'm really hoping we draw Boro. Seems too long since we've played them and it would likely be picked for tv. -
Newcastle United vs. Blackburn Rovers - 07/01/12 @ 3pm [FA Cup 3rd Round]

In previous seasons, when we were worried about relegation, I dreaded cup runs. This year, I want us to go for this. If we put out our best side every time, I don't see why we can't go far in this competition, barring an unlucky draw. Let's do it.
