oh, yes, I agree on the not much difference between 3rd and 4th, I was using it as shorthand for us two teams to end up as the other top 4 finishers
IF spuds lose today, both them and Manure are 10 points behind us
and Arse is six (the main threat besides Liecester IMHO)
I hope Arse/Liecester ends in a draw
but tbh, any outcome works for me, as long as we win v Palace
If Leicester beats Arse, and we win
then we both are clear of the 3 other big six by 9 points (arse) and at least 7 or more of spuds, depending on today it could be as many as 13 if they lose both) and at least 10 or more clear of Manure,and it could be 12 or 13 clear)
if it all breaks our way, that is a superb outcome after 12 games
little Sheff United, if they beat spuds will be only 7 points behind us and Leicester (if we both win) and more than likely 5th on GD or outright, if Bournemouth lose or draw at St. James Park
would love to see the odds on THAT table at beginning of the year
