But a hectic Easter lies ahead. With the table standing at.. 6...NEWCASTLE..53 7...EVERTON......43 8...LIVERPOOL....42 9...US...............41 I would say the Newcastle result was good for us, the FA Cup game, Liverpool v Everton could still play a big part but Easter is a big one. We have Friday Swans v Newcastle Sat us v Spuds Canaries v Everton Liverpool v Villa Monday Everton v us Mags v Bolton Tuesday Blackburn v Liverpool We can be sure that Newcastle will be at least 6th so can now forget them, but, us, Everton and Liverpool, any ideas?
Liverpool need to make the final, it will be a serious disappointment for us to miss out on Europe after doing so well. I highly doubt we'll do it again next year.
We are 1 point better off than I thought we would be so agreed mate a very nice weekend, lets hope we can keep it up for the remaining games.
if we had said in October that we would be debating do we finish 7th,8th or 9th we would have been locked up.
I think we can get at least 3 points from spuds and Everton. We coul get none though. Would love us to break our Everton hoodoo. 47pts we need to beat last season's total. Think we should break 50 points.
It's a nice conversation to be having but lets not forget we are still just 3 poins above 13th with some tricky fixtures coming up... I'll not be counting my chickens just yet. Having saaid that, the future does look bright!
TBH Norfolk, after years of I know buts I'm enjoying looking up not down, yes we could lose all our games, some of them or none of them, time will tell, tonight I'm looking at 7th.
Syd,isn't it great to be looking up,on April Fools day,knowing we are safe and looking at a top eight finish??
when was the last time we went into the last 8 games just looking up the table too see where we can finish. 50 points has to be a minimum target for us this year only one reason to look down to check if villa will get relegated
I think we can get at least 9 points from the final 7 games and up to 12. I think we will finish 8th ahead of Liverpool who are really starting to look short on confidence and any kind of belief. 7th is possible but only if we draw with or beat Everton and at the moment I think they still have an advantage over us, don't know why but we just don't perform against them.
The second season is always the killer & with a few of your lads sure to want Europe year in year out you'll surely loose 2 or 3.
Would be nice to see Sunderland finish above Liverpool, hopefully your lot play like they did for 85 minutes against City, for the rest of the season.
I'd expect Everton to come out top of that 3. They are a class act and Moyes has just started his favourite part of the season. Nothing in it with you and Liverpool. Depends which Sunderland turn up. And depends whether Liverpool bother to show up again this season.
