There is no spawnier team than that lot. I just do not trust fate to ever deal them much of a cruel blow.
Like the turd that won't flush, they keep slowly rising enough to be an eyesore towards the top of the table.
I doubt very much that they will win it, but I wouldn't be surprised if they somehow end up third. There's just some strange voodoo at that place.
The bookies don't seem to be taking them seriously yet - think I saw odds as long as 20-1 for them to win it yesterday. However, it seems ludicrous that after such a shit run prior to Christmas they're still only 7 points behind Arsenal and Leicester, and 6 behind us so with 48 points to play for it's still "doable" in that sense. Our next 2 games are away to West Ham and Sunderland whilst theirs are at home, albeit against decent opposition in Saints and Stoke, so we need to make sure we get the full 6 points not just to maintain the gap on them but to stay in touch with those above us of course.
