The fixture run-in is a great opportunity to bang in goal after goal, but if the return is as 'frugal' as today's haul then I wouldn't be at all surprised to see us have to settle for fourth place on goal difference, and over the season we should be better than fourth.Yes, a little frustrating that no one managed to connect with those crosses, could have done with bumping the goal difference up a bit more.
For that to happen we'd have to draw against Brighton, Birmingham or Reading and United would have to win their games including at Chelsea.The fixture run-in is a great opportunity to bang in goal after goal, but if the return is as 'frugal' as today's haul then I wouldn't be at all surprised to see us have to settle for fourth place on goal difference, and over the season we should be better than fourth.
We have a game in hand and that, if City ever did formalities, which they never seem to have got to grips with(!), would be a formal three points, and haven't the Ragettes got a 'toughie' left? It should be straightforward, but I was counting a chick today before the egg had hatched.For that to happen we'd have to draw against Brighton, Birmingham or Reading and United would have to win their games including at Chelsea.
Possible, but I think we'll finish 5 points clear of them now.

I thought I heard someone say they had to play CFC. Hayes's girls won't let up, they'll want the points all right!It's been really close and a struggle, but I think the final table will make it look like we should never have worried.
United have West Ham and Chelsea and I wouldn't even be surprised if they slip up against the Hammers as well.
We should never have been anywhere near them in the table, but it was a ridiculous injury crisis that any team would have struggled with. Disappointing that it basically wrote the season off for us, but we should be looking at the title next season.
Ps. Id normally agree about not getting ahead of ourselves, but I can't stress enough how shit I think United are! :)

It's turned out to be a better win that perhaps the game I watched . The 0-0 just about sums up the Rag quality when the chips are down.Yet it was a good win, especially in the context of the rags drawing.

We’ve shown good consistency with winning several games by a 4 nil score line and improved our defence as well.It's turned out to be a better win that perhaps the game I watched . The 0-0 just about sums up the Rag quality when the chips are down.
