Ok ok
 I was merely suggesting as to separate the 4th place and 5th place discussion.

Spurs draw with City? Based on fucking what?

Spurs just seem to have their number. Even earlier this season, Spurs lost 3 in a row to Chelsea, Wolves and us, and then what do you know, they get a 3-3 draw away at the Emptihad, with a last minute equaliser. You just never know with them, Son's in decent form and is always capable of firing one in.

I couldn't bear to get fifth now. I know it was never a binary choice between trophy and league but 5th now will make the season feel like a failure, whereas if we missed out on CL but had a pot in hand...well, that might draw the sting a bit.

Yeah exactly how I feel now.  If we finish 4th then it will feel like we have achieved something, even though we've missed out on the Conference League.  I would have happily taken 5th and winning the Conference League, but finishing 5th now with no Conference League would feel flat (although would still represent a very good season).

There's 3 games to wrap this up within a week.

Burnley beat Spurs (draw will do if we can draw v Liverpool)
We beat Liverpool
City beat Spurs

If Spurs are within 3 points going into the last week of the season then they'll get 4th... I don't think we'll beat an in form Palace..

Made the mistake of putting talkshite on... "pundits" who are Chelsea and Spurs fans saying that we don't deserve top 4... saying West Ham are better than us for winning the Conference League.... failing to take into account that West Ham almost got relegated because they prioritised Europe... failing to take into account our injuries and fixture schedule.... another reason why I want us to get top 4 over the line #wankers

[PaulWinch again]

By that token presumably Liverpool don’t deserve to be in it.

Did they get any mugs to phone up and argue with them?

[Ben1505p]

They sure did

They don't actually believe it. They try to goad people into phoning in and get angry.

Spurs 16/1 to get top 4, it’s worth taking out the insurance. Might soften the blow.

[Ben1505p]

I'm betting on a Spurs top 4 multi with a Spurs Draw/Win v Burnley and Liverpool Draw/Win v Villa.

$100 is paying about a grand and a half
