We are top 6. Either we have everything to play for and go **** or bust for the final games...... Or....... We just admit we aren’t good enough, give up our 6th place to a more deserving team and treat the remainder of the season as a practice and play the kids.
We don’t deserve sixth spot on the last two months showings. We will be overtaken this weekend unless a drastic reaction happens.
But we do deserve sixth spot based on the months prior to that. Those games still happened, they still exist, we're not here by fluke. We're in a bad run of form, chances are after this we will go on a good run. It's just a case of getting out of the rut ASAP.
And the fact that we're still 6th after that bad run shows that other teams below us are just as inconsistent!! Think positive! Always a pint-half-full bloke me!!!
Arsene Wenger is a ****e manager because he's only kept Arsenal in the top 6 (this is probably wrong, but not that far off!!!!) for the last 20 years without winning lots and lots and lots of trophies!!! I sometimes ****ing despair!!!!!
this weekend might see a lot of postponements ... WX is still not settled as the closer we get to the weekend the wx confirms its likely path, already caused widespread snow over ice in the north east into central Scotland. wx front coming up from south south west still due around mid day onwards tomorrow and likely be 24 hours long!
As I've said previously, these sorts of fixtures will be cropping up a lot between now and the end of the season. Just as well too.....
'these sorts of fixtures will be cropping up a lot between now and the end of the season' It's a real positive for us as I think we've played all the 'top' sides home and away. We still have a chance starting this w/e against a below par Sheff Wed.
That can be a double edged sword as well Redprintt. Having played all of them, you've also lost the chance of putting one over on them in an effective "6 pointer", whilst those bottom half clubs are not going to roll over until the last ball is kicked this season. On paper you look to have a decent run in and it's all down to you, but as said many times before, anyone can beat anyone in this division.
Obviously we need to pick up points Sparky , the point being made is when teams around us play each other they can't both take 2 points
