Title: Still mathematically possible...
Post by: russon on February 28, 2014, 10:18:43 PM
...for us to win the league if Fulham beat Chelsea this weekend. If they do, we can't afford anything less than a victory over Norwich on Sunday or our brave fight for the Premiership is over. With 11 games to go and a 32 point gap, we just can't afford any slip ups.

Good thread. Don't forget we still have to play Chelsea and Man City so that boosts our chances of reeling them in.

No doubts we'll win our next seven league games or so and then drop stupid points at home to someone like Hull City.  Boy, I hate it when we do that!!  Still, if it's still in our hands, we might as well go for it!

Time for strategic sabotage action at Chelsea this weekend to ensure the outcome.


I was going to post, 'undercover nobbling' but thought that might be misconstrued.

It's wide open. Win on Sunday and we are in control. We are more than capable of winning 11 on the trot and if we do that 61 points will do it in my opinion. Just need to make sure Paul and boys don't get too complacent after the recent run of results. I suggest it's stick to basics and grind teams into submission with our unique style however despite that delivering excellent results  we need to go again.

Complacency is our only foe. It's almost been too easy so far.

I think we should throw the game on Sunday so we can concentrate on staying up...

No problems. We already have it in the bag. Time for celebration.

No.  We are Aston Villa - is this how low expectations have dropped?

It's been the plan for the last 20 years. We've lulled them all into a false sense of security. It's time to strike for home.

I was just thinking that I'd quite like us, in addition to "achieving" safety, to play our part in directly influencing the title race. I'd love for us to beat City and Chelsea in the coming weeks...but then I started thinking...who can we help to win the title? It's like holding a contest for the most endurable "c**t" in the room. They're all hideous, but which one is the least godawful. Very tough. I'd be hoping for a late flourish from Everton given then choice but that aint gonna happen.
I just hope we beat all the top 6 teams we've left to play, and a hope that Everton, the most bareable side in the top 7, will make a late stab for the title. What is for certain is that if City, Chelsea, Liverpool or Arsenal win the league, we'll be smelling their farts for a year and won't hear the chuffing end of it.

Other than that, helping to send down Norwich and West Brom would be pleasant.

Thanks for fuck all Fulham. Have to aim for top three now, can't be arsed with the lottery of the Champions League Qualifying Round.

Well another season of failure for us and Arsenal. I suggest we now go all out for second. Can't see anyone stopping us though.

We need need a new William McGregor to forge a european Super League so we can leave all the dross of the Premiership behind and embrace our destiny.   What a shit storm PL will face when we play Dortmund away.
