Top post, I'm even more optimistic than I was before. One slip up and were in. If I was a player or worked within the club I would realise this and bang on all day about it. Its there's my arse, believe Blues Believe. The party is still on !!!!!
We threw away the game at home to Sunderland. But the experience maybe painful, but I am sure we will be stronger as a result. If Utd lose it from here, they will be gutted. They think they have done it, but they haven't yet. 7 wins, and we will be Champions. Not guaranteeing it, but if we win them, I think we will be.oakiecokie said:Clubber said:oakiecokie said:I like your optimism but you need to be realistic,the bastards will win the league as much as it pisses me off.
There is 7 games to go, and I ain't giving up on this season with so many games left.
United fans aren't the only set of fans who can be confident in their teams abilities. We know we can play the football to win every game till the end of the season. Why can't we start playing it again?
United struggled against Balckburn. Blackburn. They have tougher test to come, so why can't they slip up.
The Rags have struggled against a lot of teams.However they have something that we don`t !!
The ability to beat teams at the bottom of the league.
How many points have we dropped and any team who can win 12 games away from home (as a minimum) deserve it.
It fooking hurts to say it,but I`m a realist.
Am I missing something here? How would that have meant a draw at Arsenal would have been good enough? Assuming the rags beat QPR, that would have put them 5 points clear.Marvin said:It is.City Raider said:if somehow we can keep it a contest until the etihad and can come out of that still in the hunt - well, i wouldnt fancy having to go to sunderland away to win it
but christ thats a big if!
Sunday evening it will be a lot clearer. I was hoping Utd would draw at Blackburn, and we'd be able to go to Emirates knowing that a point would be OK. Realistically we have to win every game now, and that's a tall order but not impossible.

I like your optimism; you can stay! Seriously though, we have to win our last four away games on the bounce. After only winning two out of the last 9. Just how are we going to do that? And that's not even mentioning the home games.Clubber said:oakiecokie said:The Rags have struggled against a lot of teams.However they have something that we don`t !!

We have beat teams lower down the league, for most of the season everyone was lower in the league than us, and most still are.
It takes one game to ignite the season again, and why can't it be against arsenal on Sunday?
Kompany coming back, Lescott soon to shore up the defence, Aguero coming soon, even a player who is reviled at the moment on here (Balotelli, who I like), can pull a goal out of nowhere. Barry has been rested and should play against arsenal.
I didn't say it was going to be easy, but it's still definitely possible, and while it's still on, I'm keeping the faith.
