I'm prepared for 5 defeats - anything else is a bonus!

sometimes absolutely shocked and gutted. I should know and have learnt by now, but I haven't.

Yes , the league is a marathon , not a sprint , but it shouldn't be forgotten that we allowed a gap to develop around HALFWAY through the season last time around (early December) ... from which we never recovered !

Agreed.
We have also to bear in mind that they have a much easier run-in than ours. We have to play scum, liverpool, arsenal and everton away in the last 10 games whereas they only have everton away to worry about.
