The Top Five Race 2024-25 (poll added)

2 points would possibly be enough, 3 points probably, 4 points definitely.

If we can’t get over the line from here, we don’t deserve it!

So Tuesday is a must-not-lose to keep our fate in our own hands.

When we concede the inevitable first shot sucker punch, its down to the fans to step up and drag us to that vital point.

No excuses.

 

[Bluewonder]

Yea may is the correct word because those 3 teams havent actually drawn their game.

Hence may, because 3 pts is not a guarantee atm.

Please kindly stop replying to me with your stupid responses, I bore of it.

You said 'if they draw and we win then one win MAY be enough'

I corrected by informing you that if they draw and we win then one win WOULD be enough.

Two decent results today for us

What was the second decent result ???

The players need to do that.

 

[Blue_Lightsaber]

Our road form has been bad all season.

I'd much rather get a win at home.. than go to Craven Cottage hoping for a win there.

 

[xgorton]

If we win Tuesday then that will do us for top 5,Newcastle Chelsea and Villa will not all win next Sunday so our game at Fulham won't matter.

 

[Dodge]

The players need to do that.

Sorry mate, wrong on so many levels. It's that kind of attitude that results in the flat Etihad atmosphere we have now.

WE need to raise the fucking roof and pick the team up when there's a setback.

Hopefully the players respond.

Lose to Bournemouth and it will be under 50% though.

Forest winning Newcastle losing were both best outcomes in those games for us.

Nope, not at all wrong. I personally sing, clap and shout, so that's my attitude. So if we don't get over the line, who's to blame, the fans for not singing loud enough?

 

[Coljj]

This scenario is absolutely crazy really

The magic number unless you have Villas crappy goal difference...

 

[jimharri]

If only we'd got those 3 points at St Mary's, a win on tuesday would (I think) have guaranteed us CL football next season, irrespective of what happens at Craven Cottage (or anywhere else) next weekend.

Yes, I know. "auntie", "balls" and "uncle".

 

[chris85mcfc]

Can't see Chelsea winning at Forest, I actually think Forest will beat them, and potential of Chelsea having one eye on their final

Sounds a bit like 1998 when we thought a win away at Stoke would keep us up, but all our rivals win too and the trapdoor opened..

Tell you now not all them 3 will win,have a treble bet if you think they will.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Fuck relying on a win at Fulham on the final day. We need to win on Tuesday.

 

[City Raider]

Fulham now needing a result might open that game up a bit
