Do you really believe the league is over...?

Clam down every one . It’s not over according to Young . He will inform us when he done with his diving .

The world is now our oyster. Europe is our whelk.

It's nice to mussel in with the big boys.

Finally, what are your views today, Peri(winkle) Groves? A bit sick, are you?

The timing of the rescheduled Brighton game might have a bearing on this discussion - any word on that?

Think the earliest sensible date looks midweek 7th/8th May.

Likely order with points to play for:

Stoke 3
Everton 6
United 9
Spurs 12
Swansea 15
West Ham 18
Huddersfield 21
Brighton 24
Southampton 27

Cannot see it being won before Spurs. Swansea the best option. Unless United or Liverpool surprise us and draw their match and both lose against a surprise team.

If the rags and scousers draw and we win at Stoke and Everton we can win it by beating the rags
 
Important we take points from Stoke and Everton away. Need to go into the Manchester Derby with good form and with Utd demoralised and with nothing to play for but pride

So we just carry on as we are, winning as many games as possible.
And you talk of pride and Utd in the same sentence, isn't that an oxymoron.
 
I was have a discussion with a friend of mine (Chelsea fan). He asked who we wanted to draw in the next round of Champions League. He's already conceded that Chelsea aren't getting by Barca in the 2nd leg. I said I wanted to play Real Madrid, but that is for pure selfish reasons (I'll be in Madrid on vacation during the first leg and would love to see that matchup in person). But that aside, I said I wanted to play the worst team that gets out of the knockouts. His response "oh so you want United."
 
They won’t attack. Be another game like yesterday. Mourinho has one goal in mind, making the top 4 and it doesn’t matter to him how he gets it. They will not take any chances against us. They didn’t last season and they went away with a 0-0. That will be the plan again.

Exactly this. He'll want to either nick it or draw HIS way. And he won't want to get spanked. No reason in the world for him to have a go, especially if there's some distance between them and fifth, and even if there isn't. They don't need a win against us in any way, shape or form.
 
It will be interesting to see what the final 2nd placed team, probably Liverpool, gets so we can track back to find the weekend we actually won the league.

I'm quite a pessimistic blue, always have been (I remember still being nervous 5-1 up at the swamp!) but I thought it was done and dusted after U*ited got beat to Newcastle the weekend we battered Leicester. The last couple of weeks has just been a formality....
