There are four matches until the big showdown at Upton Park on 14th Feb. We have very difficult games against Leicester, Cardiff and in form sides Birmingham and Burnley while the Hammers have what looks on paper a much easier time with Forest, Ipswich, Posh and Millwall. I can see West ham winning at least three of their games so we are going to have our work cut out to stay in poll position. Where do people think both sides we will be points wise come the 14th?
I think we are coming back into form now. We should win all 3 home games and I'd be happy with a draw away to Birmingham, who seem to be hitting a run of form now. So that would put us on 60 points. Whether West Ham do as well as that or not before Feb 14th, that match will be a real 6-pointer (cue for people saying there's no such thing as a 6-pointer).
Winner of that one could have the impetus to charge clear at the top if we are near each other points wise. Saving grace is that it is only three points at the end of the day, no matter how important the game.
Not worried as football is anything but predictable! We say we have hard games and the Hammers have easy games but we all know football doesn't work like that and anyway we seem to perform better against the so called better teams in this league so don't be surprised if we take alot of points from these next few games.Also don't forget that we as the top team had some so called easy games coming up against Bristol City and Doncaster and look what happened there! Let's just see what happens
well at least I can listen to football rather than Mrs SaintsFan4Life I doubt she would be as happy as me though
I think there'll be a lot of unhappy WAGs that day Personally, I think they should have moved the game to the Wednesday.
I hope to go to the West Ham game - what are the chances of non STH's getting a ticket? At least its a Tuesday night game so I've got more of a chance
