is it right that spurs only need a point against us?

Sth Manchester,
According to my limited maths if thery lose to the rags, then they will beat bolton and burnley easily enough, and then a point against us will see them thro to 4th.

Even if we won our other three games (unlikely), then the dropped points against them would mean that we would be 5th,

Am now officially depressed.

If Spurs drew against us beat Bolton and Burnley and got beat of United and we won 3 of our games and drew against Spurs we end up a point above Spurs
 
we will win all four of our games, i would be worried if we were a couple of points in front?

so we only gotta win against arsenal (away), villa and wh (away).

that makes me feel tons better.

If we win those and draw against Spurs and Spurs lose at Old Trafford we will get 4th. Not easy but we can do it

Beat spuds to be 2 points in front on last day only to lose at wet spam after half the squad go down with food posioning....

One game at a time mate or it will drive ya nuts.

If the Scum beat Spurs on saturday lunchtime (which they should do) then things look brighter without us doing a thing.
Suddenly we'll have a game in hand to go fourth.
Okay so its away at Arsenal which is incredibly tough but right now I'm just thinking of those couple of hours on Saturday afternoon, gearing up for the Arsenal game, knowing we can reclaim fourth and the advantage.

The only games that matter occur this weekend ...... forget the Spurs visit to COMS.

Should we lose this weekend at Arsenal , and Spurs win at the Swamp ...... the gap would then be five points between us ....... and with only three games left that would almost certainly be too much for us to overhaul , when you consider the games that Spurs have left ... and the fact that the momentum will be with them , and our confidence would be tainted.

That's why it's imperative we go to Arsenal to win , no matter how difficult a fixture it is ..... we cannot afford to lose it because we just can't be sure that Spurs won't win at Old Trafford!

So this is how it feels to be City, My favourite day this season is last Saturdays Derby.

I feel like a Man United fan: My best mates a united fan and got beat up at the World cup, in France, for being a red. (Fair one) Anyway because of this and the fact everybody hates United he doesn’t support England, and hates every other club.

The reason for that boring anecdote is that, that’s how I feel. I hate everyone. I used to just hate United and Stoke, but now it’s literally every other club in every league. It’s not just the fans I hate; I hate the players and managers too. Moyes, Wenger, Ferguson, Bruce all who want to have a go at us. All of whom are hypocrites and all who have dipped into clubs in a poorer financial state then themselves. I can’t take another, ‘Sunday Supplement,’ with every single weasel faced, pretentious journalist having a go the club I love. I can’t another, ‘Radio talk show’ dedicated to getting stuck in to City; Alan ‘Fat Fucker’ Green, accusing us of being immature, for our dimming of the lights and creating an atmosphere. I can’t take another shit Tabloid having a go, ‘The Mail’ and ‘The Times’ are particularly bad for it. Henry Winter (who’s a total cock) hides behind the fact he writes for a well established and creditable news paper, but it’s not got it’s rep for its sport pages? And the awards given to these bell ends are from other journalists. So it’s total arbitrary.

Every time we win it’s like a big fat fuck off to everybody, it’s such a release. It seems to make every game feel ridiculously intense. I can’t take it when we get beat; it used to be water off a ducks back. I never really got that upset, now the pain stays with me for days.

I won’t be able to take it if we get beat by Arsenal. Arsenal whom when they came to Maine Road got a standing ovation from myself, plus the rest of the ground, for being the champions,we then clapped off Dennis Bercamp. When I listened to radio on the way home that day their fans loved us. The same fans now have web-sites dedicated to how much they hate us. I couldn’t believe RVP, after he was televised screaming the words, “ Fuck off,” at the city fans, he then, like a pathetic child, places a statement on the Arsenal web site, about how he was unfairly stamped on. Get on with it you shit house,you went looking for it, Grow up.

I don’t care though, I even like it. ‘Fuck them,’ these seasons been incredible. The best bit is it’s all to come. It felt it on Saturday. It was 1-0 in their cup final. I couldn’t believe how made up they were to beat us. Let them, the bitter reds, enjoy it because it won’t last.


“COME ON CITY”

i have come up with a completely implausible siuation. imagine we made 4th spot and united came 5th but they won the champions league. they got an easy qualifying draw and we got someone like villareal. imagine that....in fact im being ridiculous. if that happened it would be like here was a conspiracy in favour of the sky 4 or something. lol, rofl, lmao haha.

Yes this is similar to last Saturday.
We had the early kick off and Spuds knew what they had to do against Chelsea.
Likewise if Rags do us a favour and beat Spuds,surely our best 11 will go out at the Emirates and do the business !!
 
I fancy us to pick-up a point at Arse and Wham and edge Villa and Spurs at home.

Meanwhile Spurs will lose to the Rags and us, but beat B +B.

Net result = both on 70 points!!
 
According to my limited maths if thery lose to the rags, then they will beat bolton and burnley easily enough, and then a point against us will see them thro to 4th.

Even if we won our other three games (unlikely), then the dropped points against them would mean that we would be 5th,

The way this season in the Premier League is going, Spurs could just as easily win against United, lose to Bolton and draw with Burnley.

If only Arsenal and Chelsea had won like they were supposed to, we'd be laughing right now.
