Just looked at the table as it stands. If Palace lose tonight, their next games are.. Man City away - loss Hull City home - ? Man Utd away - loss im sure most would agree with that.. Then if we can beat Sunderland at the KC... its all to play for against Palace. Burnley have the easiest run-in (on paper).
Aye but we all thought the bastards would lose against Chelsea (away), Arsenal (home) and Liverpool (away). Result? 9 fooking points..
Palace are as safe as houses..7 points above Swansea with a +19 better goal difference. 4 pts above City with a +21 better GD. I can see Swansea getting 7 pts with nothing tomorrow vs Man Utd, but a draw at home to Everton and wins vs Sunderland (a) and West Brom (h). Which means we need at least 4 pts from our last 3 games and hope to make up the G/D...I tell you its going down to the wire...
Palace really have been an arse stain on our season though. They let Swansea and Burnley both do the double over them.
Today was the first point we had picked up this season in a different kit to our home one (the previous 5 away points all came wearing Amber and Black). We really should wear it at Palace.
Palace are still in the mix. Their only realistic hope of points is against us and that game could be a really tense one.
So Swansea get beaten by Man Utd which means they will have won 1 of their last 8 and suddenly they are going to get 7 from 9 points?
Still in our hands - but that Palace-Spurs finish looks pretty scary now. I had us to stay up by a point, and that was with United beating them today. Palace is looking dangerously must-win.
Apologies if already mentioned but just seen Spurs have to play Leicester away the Thursday night before our home game against them last day of the season. Let's pray that they are as equally knackered as United were against Swansea today
Let's beat Sunderland then go away to palace looking to leapfrog them? They have Man City away on Saturday so we could be a point behind them sat night?
Great point at Manu, and our hardest game out of the way, and our form on the up at the right time, going to get very tight, shame we were cheated of the 3 points, with a dive in the box, but we move on to Everton at home, Ashley Williams to help out the Jack Army cause!...................
that is no guarantee of a win and no. there is no point watching Lesster. I have no interest in them.
