Ok

I know our remaining games look easyish on paper but that's only if our players bother to turn up and we all know teams love treating us as their cup final.
Really would not be shocked if we ended up 4th and having the play in the bloody qualifier.
2nd on Monday

I'm easily pleased tho and understand that sometimes you don't win everything all of the time. Not like some
That much is clear.

Top four is now a done deal IMO. Just the order that needs sorting out. Hopefully we'll at least finish within the top three.

Re: The race for the Top 4
A massive test of this teams will to win in the coming weeks. If they don't respond then a huge fire sale is needed. The Manager is a necessary casualty if he fails to organise them in the face of this challenge.
We could go unbeaten (which will piss me off because it shows how we threw away another title) or we'll stumble to 4th (which will piss me off because it shows the team cannot be arsed). Either way it looks like I'll be pissed off...........

Re: The race for the Top 4
this "sitting 4th" has come as a bit of a shock then to some?i had a feeling we were gonna be in this position well over a week ago what with not playing til MondayKnaresboroughBlue said:LadislavMplmx said:why does everyone seem pissed off today?...its not our fault we don't play til Monday,,,did you not expect the other 3 to win today or something?
I guess for a number of reasons. Some pissed off due to price hikes, some due to away game ticket allocations but probably most of all due to the fact that we're sitting in 4th with a tough away game coming up followed by an away derby which is always a bit of a nervy time.
Re: The race for the Top 4
The league has gone and the next 3 places are done just the order to be sorted
I'd now settle for 3rd as long as it was Arse and not scum who finish above us
4th would be embarrassing and a disaster in waiting for an early August play-off

Where on earth did I say it was a shock? There has been some discontent for quite a while now, not just this last week.

Finish 4th and have to qualify for the CL may change our transfer targets minds

Re: The race for the Top 4
Inevitable if we finish below second I would have thought. I think the two from Barcelona painted themselves into a bit of a corner
with their sneering comments on the OS when Mancini was sacked ... "failed to meet any of his targets other than qualification for
the CL". The bar was set too high and it was always going to be a problem for the next manager. We all knew that this wasn't the
real reason for Mancini's dismissal but a third or fourth place finish means Pellegrini's position would be seen as untenable to a large
proportion of our support who worshipped Mancini. Txiki also must be considered to be running out of lives with Khaldoon if this
happens.
