Generally good results today for us I think elsewhere.

 

A loss for Sunderland would have been better, but as long as they dont win 2 games, we can hope.

 

Palace and Man United winning means that Everton and Watford dont have a reason to rest players for Sunderland and Norwich games.

 

Leicester winning means that it looks likely that the league will be won before the final game and Tottenham come to SJP with nothing to play for.

 

Palace (H), Villa (A), Tottenham (H)- all of them have nothing to play for, in principle.

 

Its a tall order but 9 points is what we need and it doesnt look impossible now.

Need Spurs to drop points against Chelsea. That's the best chance the title is decided before the last day.

 

There's an argument that Spurs could crumble under the pressure of going for the title if it was still up for grabs on the final day. If they've already lost it they might play with total freedom and absolutely batter us!

Dont Leicester only need to beat Man Utd (a) & Everton (h) now regardless of what Spurs do?  Hardly the hardest two games they could play

Yeah just the 3 points at Old Trafford when Man U are still in the hunt for a top 4 finish. Think man u's home record is pretty good as in top 4 in the league.

Wey they've got 3 points at most other places, it's not out of the question

No it's not out of the question.  But you would reckon a draw would be a good and the most likely result. Fair chance they won't have Vardy either.

In the form table, Sunderland are 10, Norwich 12 and we are 13.  Sunderland fixtures include Watford (16), Stoke (17) and Everton (19).

 

The other thing to consider is regardless of whether teams are on the beach, clubs with players going to the Euros may well find those players unwilling to risk injury (Stoke perhaps).

Spurs as well, if the title is wrapped up by the time we play them.

Stoke were awful when we played down there, I just hope they've embarrassed themselves into a performance. On present form, Sunderland's pressing game should see them win. We're down and it's been completely avoidable. It's not like anybody has been in any doubt about what the simple solution was. Charnley should be sacked for keeping that clown for so long.

Not the end of the world today, that's the exact type of result the mackems would win in this situation. Their game at stoke is huge, if they win then we've had it.

 

3 wins for us? not impossible, everyone knows we can get nothing less than 6pts from Palace and Villa, and then its a one game final to stay up effectively.

 

Fuck, still wish the mackems got beat today then it would have sort of felt like it was in our own hands.

You'd kind of hope villa would rather be in the championship with Sunderland and Norwich as it makes it easier for them to get out.

 

Pardew will bottle it against us and Leicester will have the title wrapped up before the last game of the season (can't believe I'm saying that) we've got a great chance of getting 9pts imo, it's just what the others do.

Imagine if Spurs needed a win against us to win the League and we needed a draw to stay up.

 

It's 1-1 with 15 minutes left....

 

I also imagine how it must feel to get a paper cut on your bellend.

 

I have anxiety just thinking about it.
