    Watford and Wolves especially won’t be easy away days for sure. Leicester and Burnley aren’t gimmes either.

    Arsenal have confidence...they have turned a 10 point deficit into a 2 point lead in 5 games...the momentum is with them in my opinion.

    Agreed. Chelsea and United have significantly harder run-ins and of course play each other 3rd last game of the season which is a fixture that helps us either way. I think it'll be one of those two who we fend off for top 4.

    Yup, have to give him credit tbh. His form has really picked up since the start of the year. I've not been his biggest fan throughout his Arsenal career, and he's frustrated the **** out of me at times, but I'm glad he's ending his Arsenal career in a positive way.

    Yup, this is why I am not getting ahead of myself. I'm happy we are 3rd, but am not confident we will maintain where we are. These away games are tough, too. Wolves, Watford, Everton, Leicester, Burnley.

    To be honest, aside from City, your run-in looks piss easy.

    Still reckon you will get 3rd. Us and United to battle it out for 4th. Can't see Chelsea getting in, but can see them winning the Europa.

    I don't know. Seems like their teams only turn up for special occasions.Arsenal's not one of them!

    Whoever wins out of yourselves and Napoli surely has to be looked at as favourites for the EL. And Emery is an absolute master in the competition.

    Why would Poch want to win a competition we aren't in?

    Despite staring down the match officials following relegation-threatened Cardiff City's controversial 2-1 defeat by Chelsea on Sunday, Neil Warnock will face no action.

    Ah, but if he pointed at them it's a two-game ban

    ...unless he looks like a demented Niles Crane cosplayer with a track record for haranguing officials on the pitch, at which point they'll just pretend it never happened

    ie the FA/PL do not want the disgraceful offside decision against
    Cardiff to be further in the public eye, regardless of any Warnock
    antics after the event towards the officials.

    Nope. If they think that he pointed at them. He doesn't actually need to have done it.

    For anyone needing a stadium construction drone video fix:


    Capacity will be just shy of our single tier stand, apparently.

    And the build is currently six months behind schedule

    I'm sure this will get the exact same coverage from the press and amount of bilge from rival managers that we received...

    Fulham gone :emoticon-0128-hi:

    Wolves take the lead. Young and Shaw suspended for their next match, the latter for one more due to an accumulation of 10 yellow cards, which is rare.

    +5 minutes, though. Plenty of time for a late United goal.

    At least. Lots of wasted crosses and decision making in the final 3rd.

    Great result. COYS

    2-1 FT

    Thank feck for that. Wolves are a mightily impressive side, so confident and comfortable on the ball.

    United without both regular wing backs for their next game. Excellent result for us overall.
