Given the games in hand the other teams around us have.. they win them so to speak we would be seventh..
Everton also have a game in hand on us... they win that they are 3 points behind us...
Fucking Depressing Season...

He wasnt disagreeing with you; the scenario you're talking about is very possible.

No we can't. The most we can now get is 72 points meaning spurs can afford to lose 2 and draw 1 of their last 7 and still be ahead of us.
It's done. It was done when we shit out to Wigan.
Anyone who thinks we will finish top 4 is a dick.
[/quote]
spurs have still got to play city, utd, arsenal & chelsea. they'll drop points, probably 7 or more, in just those 4 games.
i'm not saying we'll make 4th, but a defeat most of us expected hasn't really changed things massively, as long as we recover our confidence straight away.
do i think we'll do it? well, probably not, but is still think it's a decent chance. put it this way, i'll stick my neck out and say that IF we win our last 7 games, then we'll definitely finish 4th.

[/quote]I agree. But we won win our last 7 games. We've lost 10 out of 31 there is nothing to suggest that we CAN win 7 in a row. I'm the motherfucking eternal optimist, and I know it's done.
Rafa has taken a team from 4th to 5th (at best) in 5 years.

Spurs have 8 games left. They have 55 points currently. To beat 72 points they need 18 more points; therefore they need to win at least 5 of them and draw the rest, or win 6 or better.
Here are their remaining fixtures:
Tottenham v Portsmouth
Sunderland v Tottenham
Tottenham v Arsenal
Tottenham v Chelsea
Man Utd v Tottenham
Tottenham v Bolton
Man City v Tottenham
Burnley v Tottenham
5 or 6 wins out of that lot will be tough. However, I just cannot see us winning all of our games to give them a target of 72 points.

Come to think of it, Everton smelling blood as they chase us down for 7th may come in handy as they are away to Man City on Wednesday night this week.
They are also away to Villa on Wednesday 14th April - which is 4 days after Villa's FA Cup Semi-final at Wembley, after which Villa may have an 'overhang' regardless of their result as those games are usually physically tiring. (The semi is against Chelsea, btw).

Spurs will get lasagne poisoning, Citeh will all get eaten by a flock of parastic seagulls, and everyone at Villa will spontaneously combust, leaving us free to grab 7th.

There is no evidence, at any point this season, that we will go on any sort of run.
4th was lost a long time ago, we just didn't know it at the time.
It's over.
If it were one team we were competing against for the spot, we might get it, simply because they'd be under immense pressure.

the scary thing is man city are going to invest big regardless of whether or not they qualify for CL so it will be harder next season.

The (scarier) thing is that we've got players like Torres and Gerrard who are on wages befitting of a club in the CL (never mind the actual prestige of being in it).. and owners who are running us on the basis of CL footy year in, year out.. eventually, something is going to have to give.
We can't even afford the sack our manager right now. Depressing times.
