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

There simply cannot be a better way to win it.

The rags in work would actually complain to me after 2012 that we'd ONLY won it on GD and wasn't a real win!! The look of horror when it's pointed out that the sick swan was the game we actually achieved the superior GD is a joy to behold.

I'd rather we continued like this season for the next couple of title wins, if we get any more, better for the ticker.

Can’t believe we sacked him after that amazing unbeaten run.

We didn't we kept him going until the world knew it except for Leslie when his star Roque Santa Crock knocked in the fourth to prevent another hard earned point at home t o Sunderland.

Think about Leslie, relegated QPR as such , ditto Stoke most likely, Fulham went into a lower division after he left them high and dry and its been a while since Blackburn have seen the likes of the Championship.

You really wonder how he fell into our midst before we got wise.

But he makes training rooms fit for purpose and makes teams fitter in the second half of the season.

Can't believe that both Chelsea and Arsenal have only 3 points from their last 15 available, haha, both worse than stoke.

That has literally cost them both Champions League football hasn't it? Woeful. But that's football.
After 10 league games, both were 3 points clear of Liverpool who were in 6th at the time. Now Chelsea are 7 pts behind and Arsenal 15pts..

For 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?

What 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.

So what are we arguing about? At the end of the day the Sick Swan was indeed the difference
 
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 :)
