If that was what you said in the first place we probably wouldn't be having this discussion. I'm not sure I fully agree with you mind - both our teams have been there or thereabouts pretty much all season. I agree how tight the league is though. As I've said on many occasions, all teams (apart from Wolves at the moment) are capable of beating any other in the league.
This is all a bit silly now - not even sure what the point is? - are we really debating that without having won the games that each of us has won we wouldn't have the points we now have - e.g if Man United hadn't been 'fortunate enough' to have won the number of games they have they might be fighting relegation?
All i'm saying is that a month can make or break your season. You have to be on your game constantly or other clubs will overtake you. Which is why we looked so far off in December but we managed to get back up to the the top thanks to a good month. There are 42 more points for us to play for, 14 more games. Plenty of time for it to change. I wasn't trying to wind anyone up or anything, I was trying to stop Hull fans winding us up. Plenty of ups and downs for us to enjoy, today only proves that.
