I have very fond memories of a certain semi final last April, where you could see how jaded some of them were. And surely it stands to reason, doesn't it?
If you say so, I could come up with various arguments against what you're saying but I suspect I'd be accused of being unneccessarily negative. Suffice to say that their results have got increasingly good over the last couple of months not worse so personally I'm not expecting them to suddenly start flagging. If we are to win the title, imo we are going to have to significantly improve our away form and win it for ourselves rather than waiting for them to drop points. The only hope I have in terms of them fucking up is that, as you say, they haven't actually being playing particularly well so hopefully at some point that might catch up with them. But even with that, it happens so often you end up having to conclude that it isn't just about luck.
I see where you're coming from and since Sunday, I've been thinking about how we should concentrate on our own results and not worry about what the rags are doing. I do a bit too much wishful thinking sometimes but I desperately want this and I hope the optimism about the rags and their form might have a grain of truth to it after all.
I have to say, though, that some people have worried themselves silly over the run-in without giving due consideration to the fact that we have by far the better squad. And there is no wishful thinking about that.
