    Don't think I for 1 second think we will finissh 4th, however all the tabloids etc keep saying we might pip Tottenham??? bollocks if these cabbage bonces looked the fixtures they will see it's Arsenal that have a harder run than Tottenham. Looking at ours we would simply have to win them all and that's never going to happen.

    We are contenders for a top 4 finish, though don't think we'll get it. 2 from 4 with Arsenal and Tottenham most likely to get it.

    We will clearly finish 6th and Everton will beat Liverpool! I'm usually and I am certain on this one.

    As a Sunderland fan it pains me to say how fantastic a season you guys have had. Pre season all my mates here said "mid table will be fine" so upper mid table to them is fantastic - to get Europa then you guys are showing just how far you've come.

    We'll be joining you up there next season I think - the 2 clubs will be a lot closer and, as a Sunderland fan, I would obviously say we'll finish above you and you will obviously say you'll finish above us - but in the whole, neither of our clubs can complain about the season we are having. I'm truly enjoying being a Sunderland fan now

    Next season could be great for both teams, but that makes the derbies even more horrible! Both squads seem quite settled now - it'll be interesting to see if both managers can keep them together.

    Which of your key players do you reckon you'll keep? It would be a big blow to lose Sess, he pulled all the strings against City at the weekend, and hasn't been short of admirers all season. It would cost a lot to replace him, or take some very good scouting work. Even Bendtner's been on form in the past few games - will O'Neill go for the full purchase? He seems to like bringin in players that he's worked with before; would you be happy with players like Agbonlahor or Warnock coming in?

    I'd be surprised if we lost a first teamer apart from Tiote. If Ben Arfa and Cabaye go to the Euros and shine, some bids might come in, but I expect they'd have to be pretty hefty - the same with any member of our first eleven.

    Reference Arsenal, RVP hasn't scored for 3 games now so maybe they are having a little wobble... (think the gap with Spurs and what has happened recently).

    I'm hoping we are coming into some kind of form at the right time.

    Arsenal and Spurs will take the CL spots. I still think we'll finish 6th but I would love us to go to Chelsea needing to win for 5th! And remember each place is worth a little bit more. The more we get the more Less Fat Mike will spend.
