    With arsenal's surprise defeat by Wigan I think it has opened up into a challenge for 3rd place never mind 4th, Fingers crossed our boys can keep focused and get Stoke out of the way and then hopefully Wigan will be safe from relegation. Chelsea 3 days before the cup final could mean they are focused on other things. Lets get behind them.

    Saturday could be the turning point for this, if we win against Stoke, and Arsenal and Chelsea draw, we're 3 Points off Arsenal and 4 ahead of Chelsea, that for me would be the perfect weekend.

    Beat Stoke and Wigan, and I think we'll only need 2 points from our last 3 the way the other teams around us are bottling it

    No matter what way you look at it, it's been a great season for us so far. It's by far better than any of us expected and we've done it in style. We've won a lot of fans from the teams we've played against for the performances we've put in and the results we've got.

    The lads have done us proud and deserve to get something special for all the hard work they've put in.

    Europe will be a great stage for them.

    All these 'freak' results have evened the playing field in the race for the last 2 CL spots. We can do it but we need to stay focused

    On our day we can beat anybody. I don't think that Wigan are going to be too big an obstacle.

    I actually think that's our hardest game left this season, as well as our visit to Stamford Bridge.

    also, Everton could be difficult if a win would confirm them finishing above Liverpool (assuming they arent already there)

    Wigan are arguably the easiest opponants.

    Chelsea and Everton away?

    Man City at home?

    Stoke always create chances...

    Peopl like Wigan because they never really get high enough up the table for people to start dislikeing them.

    Yeah, I think Everton at their place could be really tough if they still have something to play for. (Finishing above Liverpool).

    TBH I think Man. City could be a nightmare too depending how things go for them from here. I mean they seem to be hitting some form again so...

    I'm fairly confident about Chelsea though. I think their schedule will just be too much for them.
