Final league standings?

I think 4 points will be enough for 3rd.

Snap. Scrape a win and then a scrappy draw and a stupid loss just to make it harder for ourselves. But it'll be enough.

I've grown tired of fighting too vociferously against pessimism though, so I'm trying to foster more a spirit of friendly debate! He actually said something almost positive, he just didn't realise it, so there may be a small crack of light waiting to shine through there!

So you're trying to encourage him to talk out of his crack?

I think we'll come third just. Chelski are too far behind and the Spuds are shit. Newcastle could come above us depending on Man City's game next week. If City lose to Manure they wont have much incentive when they play Newcastle. I dont think we will lose again this season - Stoke arent much cop and we should be able to get a draw there.

3rd just....we need to get a result at Stoke though, what should have been a comfortable game has now turned into probably our most important of the season.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

A pure pessimistic attitude to all things concerning the club is one thing. . .cricketsi, you new round here?

You really shocked Joker thinks/hopes we don't get 3rd. Meh im sure Yesterdays City and Utd results made him a happy boy for once.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

We should get 3rd i think we'll get the points we need.
Spuds are collapsing, Barcodes won't beat both chavs and pool and chavs have a few hard games too.

[Marc Overmars]

I bet 3rd is still up for grabs on the final day.

We have run out of gas now and are limping to the finish line, as usual. Our problem is that we don't win games when confidence and energy levels are gone, we don't really have a winning habit and that makes the possibility of slipping to 4th still alive. Newcastle have a harder run-in, but we will make ours a lot more difficult than it needs to be.

[Flavs]

1 win and 2 draws and we are laughing all the way to the bank, literally in this case.

Newcastle will fuck up and drop out to be replaced by spurs with Chelsea and Newcastle taking the UEFA cup spots. Although....what would be funny si if Spurs qualify with 4th only for Chelsea to win the champs league and replace them as qualifiers.

But Diaby and Benayoun will be available to start against Stoke which means Ramsey should get dropped and we will win
