Geogaddi Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Seemed to remember Liverpool went above us on goal difference after beating Man United 7-0, yet we are now 5 points ahead having won two games and them losing one, did I imagine they were above us on goal difference after that game?

You are correct after week 26 they + 1 point and +1 GD, though we had a game in hand Last weekend we then had +1 GD and +2 points after we won 2-1 and they lost 1-0 and we still had a game in hand.s Now we've both played 26 we have 47 pt +20GD and they have 42 pt and +18GD Amazing turn around considering they won 7-0 and we lost 2-0 two weeks ago!

Doctor Zaius Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Spurs won't finish top 4 imo. Think it'll be Liverpool. Either way, they're there for the taking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
54 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Two points behind Spurs with 2 games in hand, and we play Man United next which should we win we'll go ahead of them with the same games played. Huge 24 hours really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 I had a quick glance through the fixtures and landed on 18 points on first look. That seems like a reasonable and achievable target, I reckon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KetsbaiaIsBald Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 (edited) The last couple weeks have been huge for us. Winning a couple and the others have stuttered. It should be massive for their confidence. Edited March 18, 2023 by KetsbaiaIsBald Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea winning the CL wouldn't affect 4th getting CL. England would get 5 places. It only becomes an issue if both the CL and Europa was won by teams outside the top 4, as England can't have 6 places. https://www.premierleague.com/european-qualification-explained Edited March 18, 2023 by Superior Acuña Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember our push for top 4 under Pardew was overshadowed by the prospect of Chelsea winning the CL and stealing a place from the team that got 4th.

I remember when spurs lost out on the CL for that reason. I think Redknapp was in charge. Spurs owe a lot to Redknapp as well. They were a mid table club same as us.

There’s a lot of hatred for other teams on here I just can’t keep up. Must be because I’ve lived in north London for 18 years and had a flat mate who was a yid (still one of my best mates now, speaking to him tonight and he says he doesn’t want poch back yet as this “sack of shit” players will tarnish his reputation) is why I can’t hate them. also moving to Leicester now and my wife and her family being massive Leicester fans means I can’t hate them. I also work in Nottingham alongside a lot of forest fans and no doubt I’ll be having a crack with them in the office on Monday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair, I have petty to semi-genuine to genuine reasons to dislike more or less every club tbf. Spurs I didn’t mind as much under Poch so it’s a bit of a sliding scale depending on the circumstances of the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 The more I care about Newcastle, the more I dislike other clubs. Find it fairly easy to dislike other clubs really, a bad comment, tackle, referee decision, fan interaction. Anything really and I’m happy to write them off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you believe it if I actually told you my dad is a mackem and goes to all the games as is my brother but as I was born in Wallsend Newcastle (we lived in leam lane, Gateshead) I made my own mind up and supported Newcastle. My mam and both sets of grandparents are Newcastle supporters. My mams brother supports Sunderland but my dads sister and her three kids all support Newcastle. One thing we never do is slag off each other’s team as we’ve learned to become tolerable. We’rea messed up family and nothings straight forward.

ExiledGeordie Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 (edited) Conte unloading completely on his players means they’ll either implode or go on a run. Pretty confident of beating them at home though. If we beat Man U in two weeks then we have an even stronger chance of top four.
