Not a chance, they've had Kane himself for the duration of 2019 and been in midtable form.
Their current team should be in the dictionary next to the word stagnation.

So by your reckoning, we can continue to stumble and fourth will remain ours?

I think 70 points will certainly do it and 65 points possibly.

I find it very unlikely we will have another run as bad as December, they had their chance.

If Wolves win tomorrow they will leapfrog us. They are the 4th best team in the league.

Err, check the table again and see it properly this time. 

[Laylabelle 9,296]

So since January we've won 1 game out of 4..and somehow 4th

Found this one saved on my reply box.

I still say Spuds is the biggest threat for 4th

and spuds are in tatters personnel wise

so no 'gotcha' moment from me IMHO

I'll do you one better - we have won only 4 of our last 12 league games and we're still in the Top 4.

Hope that's the case come May.

This has kinda been on parr. December we played 6..won 3. This has been 1 win in 4.

Either way....somehow still there!

I personally think the tie isn't a foregone conclusion. They can be got at, but more will depend on what state we're in when it comes around.

You know what, just go facking win the whole thing and we don't have to worry about this shitty Top 4.

I worded it wrong i meant the 4 defeats in 5 games.

It's just bizzare. Know last season there was gaps but nothing like this or didnt seem so obvious. Even between City and Liverpool. For Liverpool to lose by a point last season and be 16 ahead this time.

[Jase 43,479]

Oh dear...

he surely has to be in the sacking zone

On both occasions Valencia have been in our group, we've reached the final.

Crazier things have happened [emoji6]

I expected this at the start and I was the first to pour cold water on the title talk when we won six games in a row, it just wasn't happening.

There's is an element of luck that there's no real strong rival (for top 4) while we undertake the biggest restructure of the Roman era but that is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, top four this season will be a very good result and set us up well.
