The battle for 3rd place

[xgorton]

What advantage does 3rd place give over 4th?

No qualifiers in August with a chance of getting knocked out,you go straight into group stage with 3rd.

I won't get too cocky until we know the result of Leicester at home. Real potential banana skin that. Hopefully Vinny will be fit to organise our defence.

It is you're right but I think another 4pts will secure top 4.

Win next 2 and we are there

Not having to play a qualifying round, 3rd place gets you into the group stage automatically.

Got it - cheers Eagle and Nico.

We will get at least 6pts from our last 3 games maybe more,no probs.

3rd is an improvement on last season's finishing place as well.

If Spurs do the same as last season , we will finish second if we win all our games !

Spurs can't come 3rd in a 2 horse race again can they?

They have a tough run in

Rags H, last game at WHL , could be an emotional game plus the league could be won by Chelsea on the Friday before
Leicester A , who they have a bit of needle with after last season
Hull A , could be a relegation decider

It's possible but unlikely.

No,they only need 1 more point.

It's ok to be a gooner for a day.

Better than being a rag

20 mins more.

6 points more will do it for us!!!

 

[domalino]

And that's the end of the top 4 race.

 

[3rdgenerationblue]

beat Leicester and job done for fourth but third would be lovely and acceptable for a transitional season.

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

Good results today but nothings really changed in my eyes, we still need to win our remaining three games.

Don't count your chickens

Worst case is 6 points for fourth, 7 points for third I would think.
