    Interesting that despite having 16 league matches left to play, only 5 teams can 'manage the (so far) impossible' and do the double over us under PL's leadership.

    So, we only need wins or draws against Man City, Man Ure, Tottingham, Arsenal and Villa and he will have a proud - possibly quite unique record. <ok> Bring it on!

    I was only counting teams that had a chance of beating us.

    There are only 5, all of whom I included? I know some are away games, but the stat still stands, FACT.
    Colu_Mike just corroborated it for me <ok>

    I have had this exact conversation a couple of times this week at work, and when you see that list they are all the very best with the exception of Villa, who themselves are no mugs.

    At the start of the season when Lambert looked at the fixture list I imagine he budgeted on getting no points from either game against the top six, with any we do manage to pick up being bonuses - so we're two up on that front. And the key would be to pick up points against those around or below us - and this is where our success has come in abundance. Doing the double over Koo Pee Arr was particularly sweet, and there's a fair chance we could do some more before the end of the season.

    Yep it's all good. I make it We've only lost to arsenal, spuds, man city, man u, chelski, villa and WBA in total.

    Impressive (so far)

    Of those that could do the double, the manc clubs and spuds would be the obvious, but I think we can get points
    Of arsenal and villa.
