    ´Boro´ to draw, Watford to lose
    City to win on the day,
    Wishful thinking but not without a chance
    As we edge ever nearer May

    That would leave all three on 85 points
    With City perhaps back on top,
    And Bournemouth to sweat then on their Monday game
    Where the title will be theirs to drop

    Stranger things have happened in this weird game
    So although the autos right now,
    Look to have just slipped away from our grasp
    While there´s hope, you just never know

    The pressure reverts back to those up above
    That´s how this games´ mechanics work,
    Just when you think that the job´s nearly done
    Is just when a pitfall may lurk

    We know we´re guaranteed a top six berth
    Whatever we do from now on,
    So I can´t see pressure should play any part
    Just yet, as promotion´s not gone

    Play-off games, yes, then pressure will return
    But how many here would have thought,
    When A. Neil took over, that chance we would have
    Or that the top two could be caught

    Brilliant he has been, in every regard
    And although to prolong the year,
    With perhaps three more nail-nibbling games
    Is hard, they´d be three we could bear

    But we´ll know more after this coming round
    And should there be wins for all four,
    As many predict, even then nothing will
    Be clear, till we open May´s door. OTBC - INIT

    Nice one RBF. I feel sure that if we win our last two we will be in the autos.

    We live in hope RBF, as Jimmy Greaves once said, "It's a funny old game!"

    I am going to be totally relaxed tomorrow. It's out of our hands as things stand and there's nothing I can do to influence proceedings. So, I'll just get the bottles of Leo chilled in preparation, then sit back sinking them without giving a sh1t about what happens (Unless Watford have already lost by the time we play, in which case I will be screaming and shouting at the monitor)

    Like you I will have a few beers before kick-off, which is an hour later for me, at 10pm. I go on the Hash House Harriers run ( walk actually as most of us are well over 60). We have a meal and booze up afterwards. Puts me in a relaxed condition before the match starts. Sometimes have a little rum and coke while following the game on the radio thanks to your good self. Rum is about £1.20 a bottle here.
