    Seems unthinkable but Brighton lost just now.

    Goes down to the last day. Still in their hands, but pressure is on them.

    Villa win and we do and it's ours. They fluffed their lines.

    As long as we win then even a Villa draw will do. The problem with that is 'as long as we win'..........

    Villa win and we draw and its still ours innit. Don't necessarily need a win.

    Tbh Brighton sneaked in under our noses, so wed just be doing the same to them.

    Pretty sure we'll beat Barnsley, but would Bruce play a **** Villa team to try to stop us winning the title? Maybe.

    Bruce is a self confessed Toon fan.

    Even if that happens then they will still deserve the title, just as we will if we get it. We should never really have given them the chance to be in this position.

    Yeah totally, "the table doesn't lie" is the only true cliché, whoever wins the title deserves it, and whoever goes down deserves it too.

    Hmmmm, I remember saying it 2011 when he was mackems manager that his season was a success because they'd finshed above Newcastle. Although that was perhaps clutching at straws and playing up to the fans from him.

    I think he lost a little bit of love for the club when we played the Monkees after one of the derby wins

    Don't have to. A draw will do if/when we win.
