David28 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I hope City win today and in the Manchester derby because that ŵould set up some game for us to watch early May. Strange logic. I'd rather had they lost today and lost the Manchester derby. They'd come to us with nothing to play for.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

skryp2nit3 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Quick fact, Spurs have never finished higher than 5th in the years that we have been in the premier league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Short and Curlies Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 So who would people like to see score the goal that clinches it for us? (Knowing fair well that an OG off Pienars arse would do us all fine!) Ba is an obvious one for his exploits pre ACON, Cisse likewise for post ACON Be Arfa, well we're potentially talking movie script if its against City Colo - would be fitting for the man Big Mike, sense of irony seeing as he hasn't managed one for us yet Perch for turining it round Krul, just to prove that a long punt could sometimes work. Shola, well he's Shola after all Taylor (S), the nearest we've got after Shola to a Geordie boy. For me, I'd love it to be Colo or Ben Arfa - and would love it to be against Chelsea (theoretically possible to clinch it then). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Perch with a Bramble-esque, qualification sealing volley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Favourite choices would be Colo/Willo/Barfa for the reasons mentioned. No particular favourite out of the three, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Really, 2 wins and a draw should do it. I don't see Chelsea winning all 4 of their games, nor do I see Spurs winning 3 and drawing 1, which is what they'd require if we get 7 points.

The College Dropout Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 No point in looking beyond the Wigan game. Anything but a win and you wouldn't bet on us. So yeah, let's focus on the next game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If B'burn where at home you'd have hope but away, at worst it's a point. Same with Bolton, fighting for their lives but genuinely terrible. Aston Villa - so poor under McLeish and riddled with injuries whilst getting nothing from players like N'Zogbia & Ireland/Gabby. Fulham are poor away and have nothing to play for either. Even with such poor form, there's 7 easy points their. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant victories against L'pool & Arsenal in the last few weeks, I fancied them to win it yesterday. Norwich was a very bad result but they have been a good team this year. You mention bad form, the teams they face are in a similar rot with less quality! We are talking bad teams, in bad form the perfect mixture. Every week is huge but if they beat Blackburn there is no reason why they can't win the rest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 It's been good to see Spurs go to shit regardless of whether they fuck it up altogether. Every single year without fail they are the most overrated team in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every single year without fail they are the most overrated team in the league. Fans are fairweather too, my boss and the Dad of a boy in my sons footy team, both said exactly the same thing to me today, when they went 1-0 down they both stopped watching. Pathetic.

James Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Before Stoke I predicted that we would get 7 points in our last 5 games, meaning Spurs would need 7 and Chelsea 9. There is justifiable reason to upgrade that prediction, but Chelsea now need 8 and Spurs 7 still. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 On a random note, where's this website that has the league table from January? Curious to see how it's looking now. We've got to be catching up at a fair pace with Man U for top spot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wigan beat Arsenal, Man Utd and Liverlol, and were robbed against Chelsea, and 3 of those game were away. No reason for us the fear those fixtures, besides i reckon only two wins will make it interesting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledDog Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Nice but we have to face 3 of that top 5, along with Chelsea in our remaining games. ... that and the fact that it's our home form that is tremendous and 3 out of the last 4 are away games doesn't bode well. But then, hell, it's an amazing end however it rolls. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
