Title Race

[Vermilion]

A bit OTT . We just need them to draw one of their three remaining games. They probably won't as they're all winnable, but given the pressure, it would hardly be a miracle if they drew one of them.

Right now, it would be to me.

It would be pretty fun if City beat Everton by a goal on Saturday but we then beat Palace 6-7 nil to make the goal difference gettable on the last day!

[Muddled]

I think we're gonna win it on goal difference now.

With the pressure being off the team and the onus on Manchester City to get the results, we're going to release the shackles, bounce back and stuff Crystal Palace 6-0. We're going to have Newcastle around on the final day of the season and it's gonna be a good 'ol fashioned whoever scores the most in 90 minutes between us and Manchester City wins the title.

We'd need to beat Palace and Newcastle 7-0 to have a chance on goal difference. That's providing City win all their games and don't win them by a big margin.

I have a horrible feeling that all the times we have laughed at the video of UTD celebrating winning the league only for City to score 2 late goals an win, will come back and bite us on the arse!

Imagine how gutting that would be!

If we beat Palace 6-0 and City pick up two one nil wins we'd still be 4 behind them on goal difference going into the final game

We'd need to win 5-0 and hope they had no better than a one goal winning margin. We'd then win on goals scored

Oh it's ooooooooooon!

[john316]

If there was one team you'd want on the last day to score a **** load of goals past, its probably Newcastle at the moment. But I fear all those goals we've shipped in the second halves this season in games we've comfortably won will hurt us. Teams we should have buried as well like Man Utd at Old Trafford were missed opportunities to have racked up more goals.

All Ifs and Buts now though - City should have had this league won already with the players they are rolling out. The fact that we could lose the league on such small margins illustrates how well we've done over 36 games so far.

It's on.

I reckon we can put ten past Newcastle.

Leave it out

[Muddled]

This is going to be more famous than the last minute titles of Arsenal and Manchester City combined.

[Sarb]

You must be posting tongue in cheek



Or Im concerned

[Muddled]

Kinda. But only with the figure ten.

As Pabs has pointed out; a couple of scrappy one, nils for Manchester City and we *only* need a six-nil and a five-nil. We *always* score at least five against Newcastle and we've put nine past Palace before.

The link is Alan Pardew playing for Palace during that drubbing and he's now managing Newcastle. It's written in my tea leaves.

[Sarb]

You happy today mate after result yeaterday?

[Liverpool]

If we are going for tea leaves, 1995 West Ham held a Manchester club on the last day of the season whilst Liverpool won against a club where Kenny has connections to both teams

[Pippo]

Just put this Desktop together for a full fortnight of positive visualisation, Steve Peters style! I work in Manc, and all the City fans i've talked to this morning are convinced they will drop points...
