You can now get odds of 18/1 on Spurs to finish in the top four.

If anyone really wants to hedge against potential disappointment.

If anyone is worried about how confident Spurs fans are of taking fourth place from us, the busiest thread on their main forum is called "Would you take relegation if it meant new owners and a fresh start?"

Doesn't feel like the mentality of a club about to win a load of games to overtake us.

Ange, never one to exactly look an interviewer in the eye after a defeat, was staring at his feet so intently tonight you could literally only see the top of his head.
He reminds me of the joke about how can you tell a Finish extrovert from a Finish introvert?


The Finish extrovert stares at your feet when he is talking to you.

If you like this it's worth googling for images of finnish people at bus stops, they're fucking brilliant. Natural queueing over there looks like peak covid restrictions to most of the rest of the world.

Sounds amazing, maybe I should move to Finland. Also it has Moominland. Autistic paradise.

Spurs probably need to be more worried about Man U or Newcastle overtaking them to be honest.

We still miss Mings. I'm convinced we would have conceded less goals if he didn't get injured. Can't wait to see him back.

We might not have scored as many if he was playing instead of Torres. But having them both available and getting minutes would have helped overall.

Even a point v Brighton would mean spurs would have to win one of their City and Liverpool games to catch us

There’s not much point in calculating the permutations, predicting or worrying about their or our results…the only thing that matters now is that the “magic number” has reduced to 6 after the Spurs defeat at Chelsea. With that being said, it could be all over on Sunday, the magic number further reduced…or stay the same if they win and we lose.

You only have to look on a Yanited forum or RAWK and see them complaining about the ref's bias against them, to know that.

Yeah, just came to the thread to post the new magic number.

8 better on the goal difference as well.

So if we win and they lose it's done? Nice to inch towards something a bit more simple at last.
