Its officially OFF, great season though

[Del]

We really aren't in contention for fourth, we never were! It will end up being a 7 point gap, absolutely nowhere near qualification.

We never were

We sat in 4th with 5 games to go

We were always outsiders but we have had a bloody good go ffs

We have about 9 first team players injured on top of an already small squad

 

[SimonB]

So how many points off fourth will we finish? Probably about 7 points off, which is a million miles away from qualification, and not far off last season's gap!

I can't stand the way we pretend to be in contention for fourth!

Same here.

I knew after the first three games this season was gonna be a disaster.

Martinez out!

 

[jamieni]

It's never been more off.

Does that mean its on?...........

Never in contention?

Not even when we were spanking Arsenal everywhere at Goodison in a crunch match?

Oh no, we were definitely in contention.

You can carry on telling yourself that next season mate, when the exact same thing happens, and we end up finishing 8 points off CL qualification, again.

Let's wait till after the gunners game!

You mean we go at it again and fall short?

Oh no, Really? We might not get CL football? Might as well support City then

So when we were two points ahead with a goal difference 6 better than Arsenal's and had just beaten them 3-0 with just a handful of games to go, you didn't think we were in contention?

I probably joined in with all the delusion at that moment in time, but that's all it was, a delusion.

 

[DanEFC92]

It's OFF like your mar's drawers.

 

[Brennan]

Dymak you're chatting utter tosh.

We clearly were in the race for 4th. 4 points is fine margins over a 38 game season, you're making it out to be massive.

How long were we actually in 4th place for? How many points will we finish behind 4th place?

You can call that being in contention all you like, but in reality, it is miles off.

City were about 8 points off the league in 2012 going into the last leg of the season, won it on the final day. By your logic they were never in the title race.
