After a lifetime following this team, I still won't feel comfortable until we have those 6 points in the bag (or the other teams chasing have done the work for us by losing/drawing their games, and reducing our magic number to something we already have).

Losing out on goal difference last year also makes me fearful, so the sooner we get those points, the better.  I know it's ALMOST there.  But 'almost' isn't going to loosen the sphincter.

Yep it’s nearly done, but it’s not done. We need to finish the job.

3 points from Fulham, Spurs and Burnley - and one draw from Brighton in their remaining 4, and it's done.

Our goal difference is dismal under Emery, we win a lot of games on the tight margins, (a Meatball bum-shuffle usually) so it would be cruel to miss-out again because of it.

It's pretty hard to see which other side is pushing us down to sixth place on goal difference.
