Such a shame our application in 2 or 3 games this season wasn't at the usual level.

First season in a while where I find myself looking back at certain games and wondering.

We have an awful lot to do despite the upturn in form.

Never rely on Spurs

Or, nothing is going to "bite" us as we will still qualify.

Yeah, having an inquest before we’re dead is weird.

No inquest there. Frustrated that other clubs around us keep winning and we can't just focus on Wembley but have to keep winning ourselves.

Let’s be honest, we’ve done well to pull ourselves back from a ropey period of the season. But if we don’t make it it is on us. We have it in our hands, unbelievably strong squad, an unbelievable manager. We should be qualifying from this position.

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

It’s good that some of teams in the mix play each other.

Nottingham Forest –Brentford h (May 1st), Palace a (5th), Leicester h (11th), West Ham a (18th), Chelsea h (25th)

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

Manchester City – Aston Villa h (22nd), Wolves h (May 2nd), Southampton a (10th), Bournemouth h (18th), Fulham a (25th)

Chelsea – Everton h (26th), Liverpool h (May 4th), Newcastle a (10th), Manchester United h (18th), Nottingham Forest a (25th)

Aston Villa –  Manchester City a (22nd), Fulham h (3rd), Bournemouth a (10th), Spurs h (18th), Man Utd a (25th)

Not that many,

Forest Chelsea
Newcastle Chelsea
Citeh Villa

Bumping as another game gone.

That is certain. Like I say, it’s in our hands. If we win all 5 we’re there. Tomorrow is crucial.

7 wins between now and the end of the season will be a statement.

Bournemouth scoring in the 97th minute to make it 1-1 and drawing 1-1 with Ipswich at Villa Park is coming back to bite us. Those 4 points dropped are proving painful!
Forest away...

The ref won that for Forest. Rogers was denied a certain penalty in the first half and Cash was fouled for their second goal.

To think Spurs or Yanited  could qualify for the Champions League if they somehow win the Europa League! Spurs have lost 18 Premier League games this season! Pathetic.

I was very confident after Saturday but away wins for Chelsea and Forest since then, the two teams we're most likely to pip, makes it that bit tougher. We lose tomorrow to Citeh and they are almost there while we are unlikely to catch them.

It'll be so wank if it comes down to goal difference.

Lose tomorrow and in all likelihood we'll be two results away after the weekend, with four to play. Puts us back at long odds. Need to win.

Given our record there, I’d take a draw.
