Could go either way, BWFCi. We've won a few of the "must-win" games - Blackburn H & A, QPR H, Wolves H, Villa A - but a cursory glance at the table shows we've not won nearly enough.

The point isn't wholly disassociated from yours but I think it's ours to win rather than worrying about others. Four points should do it, and I think we can get them in the next two games. It just amuses me to see how teams' alleged abilities fluctuate depending on whether it's us playing them.

Regardless of skill, luck, stats or good or bad play, the onion bag and getting the ball in it more than the opposition is all that counts in the end. Nobody'll care about the details.

He's not lost the faith and thinks its all the players fault. Steve Kean for England were the chants when they played Spurs.

I heard that on Saturday and couldn't believe the haste to get him off air. A proper phone-in jock like that twunt Stephen Nolan would have kept him on and blubbing for half an hour at least.

aye - I heard that live... Green's reaction was odd - i don't think Green realised what was happening until he'd cut him off...

I don't think the match tonight was really significant, but it doesn't hurt that City will go to QPR needing a win. I'm sure their fans were hoping United would win and leave City with nothing to play for on the final day of the season.

Thankfully for us QPR go to City and with QPR's away record thats a nailed on 5 - 0 drubbing...the Chelsea and City results could take the goal difference element out of the equation

Didn't West Ham go to Utd on the last day a few years back and get something?

It'd be difficult, but I'm not ruling out being f*cked over by results, especially if United now collapse and Citeh coast it.
