I think one of the rags or dippers gets more than that.
We will see! I think 80 will be very close.

Goals scoredFor it to go to GD we'd have had to win that game anyway. So if we'd won it by the minimum score of 1-0 our goal difference would have been 4 less and there's 4 more (than ithe -16 scoreline) which would have given us exactly the same overall GD. Who would have won it then?

If level then play-off.
So what are we arguing about? At the end of the day the Sick Swan was indeed the differenceWhat I love about that is that if 6-1 is that it really did win us the league. If it would have ended 3-1 for example that is a 6 GD change in our favour. We only won the league by 8 SD.
So after we beat Newcastle 2-0 in reallity we were 3 points ahead and 10 GD. If the derby would have been say 3-1 this would have been only 4GD diference. They played Swansea who had nothing to play for. Also the 2-0 win they achieved (surely would have been more if they needed them) would have meant that they would have only needed to beat our result at Sunderland by 2 goals
Bacially the 6-1 won us the league. Never let them forget it.

As it stands even if United lost to West Ham and we beat Stoke and Everton, we'd be 19 points ahead going into the derby with 21... need a draw here for the guard of honour some want. Unlikely atm.
Still able to win the league at OT though :)
