If we can handle the relatively easy fixtures after this one well then yes, we don't need the points. However, I'm being cautious about this. We're going into the end of the season with some incredibly "easy" fixtures but I know that we have slipped up at this point in this past.
-
Does anybody in Manchester actually support Manchester United? You see tons of their fans down here.
-
So are all the other contenders though. Liverpool handed 4th place to us, City and Spurs by doing so badly at the beginning of the season but none of us have moved in to take it.
-
I'd be happy with a point here.
-
I don't see how losing on Wednesday makes us more likely to win in the final.
-
We have a game in hand over Liverpool and they have some really tough fixtures coming up.
-
All in all I think that's a good result. A point from WHL is always good and we're now 7 points clear of SHA. We still have a shout at 4th place what with only being 3 points behind with a game in hand. If we can make it through Wednesday with a draw or a win we've got a pretty good chance I think.

Yes, just like I was when I said we'd beat ManureWait, you said we'd beat somebody? Odd comment to make when you've been here a week. What's Mantis's sign up date got to do with anything? For all you know he/she could have been reading the site for years. I've been lurking for a bit. Some people are looking too much into my comment though. It was just a little joke based on what I've seen from Richard's posts so far.

It's just all I've seen from you so far is predictions of doom and gloom. No need to take it so personally.

Nothing like a Leeds win tomorrow to completely demoralise Spuds and their fans.
-
Out of the contenders for top 4 Spuds are certainly my favorite. I've never liked Liverpool for various reasons and Man City are just trying to buy success. Why? From what I can remember you said the same about Arsenal and we almost won. We rarely ever lose. We draw a lot I'll give you that but I doubt we'll lose. Why the unwarranted pessimism?
-
I thought he was doing that but wasn't 100% sure at the time. Good banter. I hope that weren't the reason! He does that celebration mainly because of his mother who died. Although alot of others do it, so it's a fine celebration and take the mick out, as long as it's not because the reason you've stated which I'm sure it isn't. Messi etc...does it too. Gabby's mother isn't dead.
-
I dunno about Cuellar. He's good but he seems to give the ball away in dangerous positions a lot. Still, this doesn't take away from the fact that he's saved us from conceding a lot of goals.
-
I don't think there's any reason why we can't win this. We attacked well in the first half yesterday and defended well in the second. Now that Gabby has netted two goals in one game after that long dry spell hopefully he can go on to score more. I'm predicting either a 1 or 2-0 win. If we'd lost or had a no score draw yesterday I think things would be very different.
-
Anyone know the name of the song played at the beginning of half time?
-
Let's hope he can carry on finishing well.
-
Am I the only one here who took a good few seconds to react to the first goal?
-
Dunne is half the reason why we have such a good defensive record this season.
-
You guys were making quite a racket over there. There was me sitting in P2 wishing I was over there with you. We had to put up with a bunch of Fulham fans sitting three rows behind us shouting "rider boy". Don't know what that was all about. It's ok, they shut up once we scored. I was hoping she was a poster on here..... Didn't think we were as loud as we usually are and there were a few spare seats dotted around. Damn. Knew we should've waited to get tickets in the away bit. You lot were very good though. From what I could hear you were louder than the entire Fulham end!

Very good game. Good to see Gabby score again. Kind of weird actually because I predicted he would get a hat-trick today and he almost did! I knew I should of placed a bet on us winning and Gabby scoring. Some Fulham fans in front of us got up at half time and left. Very odd. Also it's a shame there weren't very many Villa fans in the neutral section.
-
****. Time to unleash... THE FONZ.
-
Gabby to net a hat-trick.

I'm going for a Villa win in normal time. Really don't see why people are saying all they can see is a United win. We've beaten them once this season. I admit that if we hadn't beaten them in December things might've been slightly more grim for us.
