Other games - 23/24th April

[red g]

The thing that could start to give us a realistic chance of 4th IS a Blackburn win tonight, though

The way i see it, for us to stand a chance, City have to lose games - so losing tonight would simply be step 1 in that process

Tempted to wade into City at 10/11, just to soften the blow when they win I'm hoping, but in fairness, blackburn are utter bobbins.

Exactly, if Blackburn win tonight and results go the right way in the next round of matches we are right amongst them. The pressure will be on them

[Rudo]

why?

Always had a bit of a soft spot for City down through the years, certainly more so when didn't have all the money they have now.

Spurs, i really don't like them at all. Never have.

[Craig_H]

I think you'll be alright with Spurs anyway Rudo, their run-in is a ****ter, they aint taking much from Chelsea away, Liverpool away and City away.

If City make it to top 4 surely they will be able to attract even better players ones who want to be in the CL and want **** loads of cash.

I quite liked City when they were not minted, but they are now so dont like them.

It's a worry alright, but Champions League or no Champions League, Man City will buy again in the summer and will be a threat, they're not going away any time soon.

Yeah all the money City have now does make you that bit more resentful towards them, but i still don't hate them or anything, just don't like them as much as i used to. They've always had a loyal fanbase which you have to respect.

[RichC]

looking at that you'd expect Citeh to get enough points for 4th, stranger things have happened though.

Don't fancy Spurs run in much Us, Chelsea and City + 2 teams in a relegation battle!

The only "easy" game for Spurs is Birmingham and that could get more difficult if they are dragged into the relegation dogfight

A mixed bag for Citeh but they have the FA cup as a distraction. Blackburn, Everton, Spurs and Bolton will not be easy

[Craig_H]

One of the problems is that City have WHU at home a bit earlier than i'd have liked. A win takes pressure off them. If they had Blackburn tonight, then Spurs, then Bolton or Everton away, they'd probably struggle to take more than 4 or 5 points from that lot.

Unfortunately, by the time they play Spurs and go to Bolton, it may be too late to matter.

[Craig_H]

City have only won 3 times in 12 attempts at Ewood Park in the PL.
