It's on I say......

[toffeestillidie]

So the predictions are a little bit overly optimistic, but I think most of them are pretty reasonable. You also have us losing to spurs, arsenal, and liverpool, and i'm confident we'll scrape a draw out of one of those, which will be a three point swing.

We probably won't finish 4th because chelsea aren't going to bottle it as badly as you predict, but at least looking at this approach makes it seem like it's maybe not as impossible as it seems. Spurs, Chelsea, and Liverpool all play each other so some of them have to drop points. If Arsenal implode following their champions league exit, and spurs take 6 against chelsea and liverpool, and we get a draw in one of the games against chelsea or liverpool, it just might be on.

only time will tell of course, but i don't see why so many of your are confident it's impossible.

Spurs,

Newcastle(H) Fulham(A) Norwich(H) ... last minute goals concdeded costing us 2 points each time. That's when fourth went, we aren't good enough to finish 4th after throwing away that many points so late on.

Sod it, I say we can still do it. Chances are against it but, what the heck, let's bloody go for it!!!

I want to see great exciting football and what will be will be. Let's be positive in our play and mix it up. I do see the cup providing our excitement here though.

Bold prediction that is lad! Lotto numbers for Sat please!!

 

[Bluerover]

Have Moyes' legendary HT teamtalks been factored into the predictions?

 

[bakes106]

it would have been made in such a better position had we not bottled it against norwich

Yeah we totally bottled it against the MIGHTY Norwich City.

 

[Cornish-Blue]

Yes.

Dont underestimate the Benitez crap at Chelsea and Jelly will start slotting for us like a champion thoroughbred on acid.

You only bottle it against teams worse than you.

Losing to a team better than you is just you know losing.
