    The 7 points we got from United away, Spurs at home and Villa away in 6 days is looking massive now because otherwise it really would be in the balance going into the last day. We have to beat Everton.

    Whilst Arsenal are clear favourites to get 4th now we shouldn't forget that they haven't won at St James' Park since Newcastle got promoted. Sunderland won't be push overs though.

    I think it's turned into last season again for us, Chelsea look set to win a European trophy and you look set to hold out and pip us again.

    It won't necessarily happen but I don't think any of us held out much hope for the Newcastle game.

    If Chelsea lose tomorrow I'll be full of hope, history hopefully won't be repeating.

    Is anyone on here a chef? Wondering if they can rustle up a quick lasagne and send it to Arsenal's pre-match meal :emoticon-0100-smile

    Cheers DL I like your positive thinking. Better than the other Chelsea fan Cech's head guard who spends all his time on the Arsenal board sucking up to them.

    Christ, I get called negative for not settling for the EL! I think I'm just realistic but you're plain pessimistic! Get behind the team... the fat lady hasn't sung yet....

    I would prefer us being the under dog going into last game.

    When the pressure is off and we have the points we always **** it up.

    I'm hopeful lady luck appears this weekend. She is long overdue, chavs last year along with Fulop, lasagne gate and narrowly missing out before.

    Surely something lucky will happen this year for us.

    Being a football fan has never been for the rational.

    I think it's the many let downs over the years and trying a bit of reverse psychology!

    Don't be greedy, you've had more than enough in the last few weeks.

    I really cant see tottenham slipping up to Sunderland, its all down to Arsenal

    Renewed hope then :)

    flaspur and tots, I know why we're short, and how we do in CL if we got it can't be worse than City :), Lloris will be in goal for a start, and there's a quali to get through first, but its not about any of that, just want to finish above the goons, however unlikely.

    If you've got great goalscorers you win.If you have part time goalscorers you finish out of it!We've only had one consistent goalscorer this season and where we are is pretty incredible!
    With one game to go what is the point in worrying about other teams if we don't win ourselves?
    COYS!........Jermaine.Time to get your finger out,son!!!!

    That's true I suppose. Although I really don't agree with that rule!

    If AVB gets us fifth place it's:

    1. A lower position than last season.
    2. Better than we thought he'd do.
    3. Not good enough.
    4. Not a bad performance considering the wealth of our rivals.
    5. Just enough to give him another chance for next season to improve.
    6. If not we say goodbye.

    2 & 4 but there should have been, "7 Bloody brilliant following Levy ****ing the start of the season by not doing his transfer business early enough"
