My top 8 at the end of May

[california blue]

One good thing is we havent had a run of form like spurs have had for a period of time - we're getting results but playing well within ourselves. It feels a bit like italy in a worldcup - steady & uninspiring then gathering themselves when the real business starts

If today's results don't make it abundantly clear that 70 points will not be required to finish in 4th spot then nothing will.

When you look at the games Liverpool, Villa and Spurs still have to play you will come to the same conclusion.

Should we finish with 70 points which is a huge ask we will finish 4th with a bit to spare.

actually i think liverpool may get 71 points

Wins ....... Blackburn(h), Wigan (a), Portsmouth(h), Sunderland(h), Fulham(h), West Ham(h), Burnley(a), Hull (a) = 24 points
Draws ...... Man Utd(a), Birmingham(a), Chelsea(h) = 3 points
Defeats .... Man City(a)

44 + 24 + 3 = 71 points

I predicted a 1-1 draw with stoke so still on course for a top 4 place, however optimistic it might be

 

[NICKS BACK]

I had a go, 1/Utd 89 2/Chelsea 81 3/Arsenal 81
4/Liverpool 69 5/Man City 67 6/Tottenham 64

Bottom 3 Burnley 34 Hull 31 Bolton 28 and (Portsmouth) *37* !!? I took a completely pessimistic view of things, so if we pick up some form (Ha Ha) we should be alright, F*** knows how I got to 37 with Portsmouth, but good news for them if I am correct lol

you can't speculate like that, it never works out that way
