We’re 17 points ahead. Make up 8 over the next 9 games that makes 25 points. With 8 remaining that’s only 24 to play for.

Or have I made a right pigs ear out of this?

Ah, you're including the Everton game as the 9th one. I had thought going into the game as champions.
 
Ooops I missed one off! We play Evertom on March 14th which is Match day 30

22 (A) Aston Villa
23 (H) Crystal Palace
24 (A) Sheffield United
25 (A) Tottenham Hotspurs
26 (H) West Ham United
27 (A) Leicester City
28 (H) Arsenal
29 (A) Manchester United
30 (H) Burnley

So 8 games left for City after that day (24 points max)

We also need to factor in when we play our game against West Ham [edit: on the 29th Jan]

There are 9 games listed there

Correct

For clarification - We both play nine EPL games between now and the 14th of March. There will then be eight games left to play.

So to win the league on the 14th of March at Woodison we need to finish the day 25 points clear of City. We are currently 'only' 17 points clear

It is possible that we get into a mass brawl with Everton, the entire first team gets suspended for six months, and we only just manage to hang on to fourth on the last day.

Yeah - there's no way we're going to make 8 points up on City in the next 9 games.
 
Live in the moment. Everyone is gutted we're playing so well and breaking records. That might end. Rub their faces in it while you've got the chance. This is peak schadenfreude right now. The state of the ev and citeh and manure fans right now. Its as good footy rivalry will ever get.
 
I believe Man C can win every remaining game. They get Sane and Laporte back soon. So no resting on our laurels.

They can, but I believe it will be harder for them to get their shit 100% together when the gap is So big. Last season it was a do or die game every game, but this season there is no guarantee they will win anything even if they win every game. Mentaly that is tough
 
Everyone was beating that drum last year too after their wobble
Exactly - we just need to win our games - keep that thought, and keep winning and the job is done. Any other thoughts that involve others doing us a favour should be flushed down the toilet - this is based on last seasons experience and reality.
 
Whatever city or Leicester do for the rest of this season, we need 13 wins or 38 points out of 17 games. That is our only goal for now. Forget about them chasers.
 
Dont we need 35 points from 17 games?
City can get 95 points if they win their remaining 16 games.
35 points will see us get 96 points.
 
Oh yes 35, forgot everyone just played a game this week. So it is 12 wins to go out of 17 games.
