So far none of the results have gone for us this weekend, let’s hope that Spurs can add to the Forest tremble.

Well Newcastle lost. Joking aside I always assume that the teams at the top are very likely to win so I don’t let it stress me. It’s good that some of teams in the mix play each other.

Can't believe we're still only 7th after the run we are on . We've really made this tough for ourselves . Keep going, one game at a time .

That’s true to an extent but we were a fair way off, we’ve really bunched it up and now it’s a real opportunity. Before this run it was a long shot.

Yep 2 pts covering 5 clubs. That was a 5-9 pt gap a month ago. We’ve given ourselves a chance.

Newcastle Ipswich h (26th), Brighton a (May 4th), Chelsea h (10th), Arsenal a (18th), Everton h (25th)

Also worth noting that we were 10th and now we are very unlikely to finish below 7th.

That's a good way of looking at it. We're almost certainly getting European football for a third season running. Glass half full.

Citeh will stroll it after us. We need to keep winning but we need two of the other sides to stutter (or continue to stutter).

There's not much difference between our run in and Man City's now. They have the advantage of playing Southampton instead of Spurs, but:

Villa = Man City
Bournemouth = Bournemouth
Fulham = Fulham
Wolves = Man United
Southampton < Spurs

I think we DID have the toughest run in, but we've beaten third twice, as well as Brighton and Brentford away. We have one of the easiest now...once Man City are out the way. If we win that this is happening. Lose and we probably need four wins.

To turn that around in five games is mental.

People wrote us off at the time  saying wed left it too late because we were 10th, nothing else. We were still only 5 points behind 4th. Things can change really quickly.

Having played a game more too, so more than five points in reality. I thought we were done after Palace and have no problem confessing to it. Remember saying we need to win five on the bounce NOW just to be in the conversation. Didn't think it likely considering the opposition.

Yes the people who said we left it too late might be right we don’t know yet.

If we don't do it, it wont be because we left it too late. We just need to keep the good run going
