I don't think we will, or should, do that.

Nope, goal difference could be key.

I just don't want us gassed coming-up against bullyboys Toney and Mbeumo. It took us years to finally beat these bastards, the trauma lingers.

Brentford are in poor form and not because of their bully boy players you mention, no, more to do with the rest of them who are anything but.

Mbuemo is just coming back from 4 months out. He might not be fully up to bully boy fitness yet.

brentford have won something like 2 in 16, they're shite and riddled with injuries at the back. their front line has been decimated also with form and injuries and that was what carried them through last season

I have had a look at ours and Tottenhams remaining fixtures in the League. I reckon we win five and loose four and that they win five and loose five. We get fourth three points ahead of them. Easy.

I’ve included smashing Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool in my remaining wins, so not sure where we will lose to be honest

In Astnor we trust! 8)

*Apart from the lose/loose bit, but English isn't his first language so it's forgivable.

If we finish 4th and win the conference league would that benefit the clubs below us in any way?

Other than ensuring that 5th place gets CL due to coefficient I don’t think so.

I don't care! Haha!

(though the coefficient thingy would be boosted massively by us winning the competition thereby creating a further European place by virtue of the 5th place becoming Champs League and pushing the other qualifying spots down a rung in the league)
