Run In

gar

Hi,

I have been very productive this lunchtime and have been trying to work out where we will finish. I have tried to be fair and unbiased in my results and I think we can still get 3rd if our goal difference improves.

Spurs
QPR (A) - Win
Blackburn (H) - Win
Bolton (A) - Win
A. Villa (A) - Draw
Fulham (H) - Win

Points - 13 + 59 = 72

Arsenal
Chelsea (H) - Draw
Stoke (A) - Draw
Norwich (H) - Win
West Brom (A) - Win

Points - 8 + 64 = 72

Chelsea
Arsenal (A) - Draw
QPR (H) - Win
Newcastle (H) - Draw
Liverpool (A) - Draw
Blackburn (H) - Win

Points - 9 + 57 = 66

Newcastle
Stoke (H) - Win
Wigan (A) - Win
Chelsea (A) - Draw
Man City (H) - Lose
Everton (A) - Draw

Points - 8 + 59 = 67

Table after
3rd Arsenal 72
4th Spurs 72
5th Newcastle 67
6th Chelsea 66

This is all depending on teams giving up after being relegated, preoccupied by other competitions (chelsea still have to play liverpool again in cup final & could be in champs league final). Man City still in with a shout of the title...

Let the pessimism / optimism begin!!!
(What will paddy power give me?)

Fulham (H) - Win

Points - 8 + 59 = 67

Arsenal

Points - 10 + 64 = 74

Chelsea
Arsenal (A) - Loss

Points - 10 + 57 = 67

Newcastle

We will sneak 4th on Goal difference . Nah seriously you can't predict results on paper as has been proved last week, unfortunately we are just going to have to suffer for the next few weeks and pray we come out on top. Either way COYS!!! TTID

To be honest for third we need to win the 5 and i just can't see it happening.

If Chelsea come out of the next five games with more then seven points i'll eat my hat. They are gonna gun for for the champions league. I expect Arsenal to hammer them and Liverpool, Newcastle , QPR can beat anyone on their day.

Gonna be tough times ahead

Spurs - currently on 59 +8 below = 67

Blackburn (H) - Win
Bolton (A) - Win
A. Villa (A) - Draw
Fulham (H) - Draw

Arsenal - currently on 64 +4 = 68

Stoke (A) - Lose
Norwich (H) - Win
West Brom (A) - Draw

Chelsea - currently on 58 + 7 = 65 . If they beat qpr at home then it could be 67

QPR (H) - Draw
Newcastle (H) - Win
Liverpool (A) - Lose
Blackburn (H) - WIn

Newcastle - currently on 62 + 1 = 63

Wigan (A) - Lose
Chelsea (A) - Lose
Man City (H) - Lose
Everton (A) - Draw


I think newcastle will lost their next 3 and fall away. WIgan are playing very well and could beat them . Even if they do win one of the next 3 then that would still put them on 66

Its going to be a nail biting finish , we could end up level on points with chelsea and we have the same goal difference as them also! What happens then ? Our two games this season were draws , who gets 4th?

If we win our last 4 then we get 4th i believe

I think that's a prett optimistic view of our run in, and a pretty negative view of the other teams run in. Arsenal won't drop points at Stoke, and i'd be very surprised if Newcastle lost to Wigan I'd say it will finish as it is.

1. United
2. City
3. Arsenal
4. Newcastle
5. Spurs
6. Chelsea

arsenal will get 3rd so what they do is not our concern

wigan have beaten arsenal and united in last two weeks , why can they not beat newcastle at home ?

SuprSi

I think we can forget about Arsenal. Chelsea looked good against Arsenal yesterday , which is a worry as they could be coming into form as well. I reckon they'll beat QPR and Blackburn, perhaps drawing the other 2. That's 8 points. Who knows what Newcastle will do as they're in great form, but their last 3 games are very tough. Still, there might be nothing for City to play for. I still think they're now the most likely to get 4th and will probably come out of the last 4 games with anywhere from 6 to 9 points, enough for 4th.

As for us, we should be Blackburn and Fulham, and we should beat one of the away teams, but considering how crap our form is I can't see that happening and Bolton and Villa must be rubbing their hands at the thought of us coming along. I'd say we might get 5 - 6 points out of 12, maybe 9 if they picked themselves up and played like they gave a ****e.

2nd Row Donkey

I think those results are very optimistic for Spurs.

I honestly cant see where the nxt points will come from. If we cant beat a norwich team that had nothing to play for at WHL then what chance have we against villa and bolton.

We might pick up 3-4 points from the home games but thats it.

SuprSi

Also remember that we haven't won away this year, so what's going to change? If we were on form I'd say we'd have a chance against Villa and Bolton, but not now.

I know Newcastle are on a great run but that has to come to an end. Look at arsenal now. Saying that our run has to end soon, i.e. next week!!!
I think we will win our two home games ans draw the 2 away.
Spurs, chelsea & newcastle are playing relegation fighting teams, wont be easy. Arsenal can cruise from here as stoke norwich and west brom have nothing to play for as are practically safe

I'm going to stick my neck out here and say we're gonna win 3 of our last 4 and Arsenal won't win either game. Newcastle will empolde and Chelsea will win all four of their games.

Hehe that's the spirit! You would imagine Arsenal will definitely win 1. To win 3 of our 4 remaining we have to win away from home, something we have done this year. It could happen. Tbh, I'll be chuffed if we start with a win tomorrow and at least see what happens.

Big Pussy Bonpensiero

I don't think we've even scored away since the Arsenal game…

Newcastle imploded against Wigan today at least,good result for us.
