We'll get 4th, maybe 3rd at best if someone else has a mid season collapse...

Where do these predictions come from? Take the AFC glasses off for a minute. We are playing bad scrapping points missing our captain and best player for the majority of the rest of the season, the rest of the teams around us are in much better form barring Chelsea and yet we will finish above them? 4th spot is best position we can hope for

from untold arsenal:

We’ve just had seven league games unbeaten, including three matches against teams above us in the league. And this has been achieved while we have injuries to virtually all of the players whom we would expect to do everything they can to drive us forward and create the goals.

And yet according to the majority of commentators this is meltdown time.

But if you want to watch a team that is in trouble then KGB Fulham is probably a good place to start - no shots on target and a 3-0 defeat yesterday. No money available, and the constant threat now that any day the owner is going to say, “I invoke Clause 9″ - this being a reference to the part of the Abramovich deal which says that at any moment he can give the club notice that they have to pay back what they owe within 18 months. (Which is over 500 million).

Or try the Tiny Totts. Harry Houdini has come in and done his magic, they’ve had the upturn that all clubs get when they sack one manager and bring in another, and now they are grinding out a 1-0 defeat at Wigan.

Or Liverpool Insolvency. In some ways if you were a Liverpool Insolvents supporter you might think things are ok. Only one defeat all season, and top of the league. True the banks have just renewed the loans - but they only gave them for six months (which in banking parlance normally means, this far and no further). And this weekend there was a 0-0 with Stoke, plus the wildest of rants from the manager.

True the Lord Wenger has on occasion got bit miffed with Sir Alex F Word but as far as I recall he always regained his composure quickly. What Ben E Tez did was make notes, write it all out, and refer to his compendium while chatting to the press. The fact that what he says is quite true, that the FA and EPL are terrified of taking on the F Word is irrelevant - such behaviour doesn’t give you much faith in the manager.

I’m reminded of the state of affairs (yet again) 20 years ago when to celebrate the winning of the league at Liverpool, the fanzine “1-0 2-1 Upâ€

scraping 1-0 victories and draws is not championship winning style :roll:

If you look at Utd Pool and Chelsea, are you honetsly telling me that aoart from Utd Pool havent been lucky?
Even Utd have carved out 1-0 (stoke) Pool have scored in the last min to salvage a draw or a win. Its not blind faith but we are playing with bare bones at the moment.

I think it must be an Oasis affect. We are walking through a desert of shit football and out of desperation can see the championship in the distance the only problem is when you get there is fucking gone!!!!!!

Bollocks. We'll get 3rd at best, but probably 4th. However, Villa don't play Liverpool or Manwho until the end of the season, so we'll have to keep our nerve because we could be sitting in 5th for a while!

I'm starting to take more pleasure in watching 'arry f*ck the scummers up. He always like to take a team into the Championship at some point during his reign!
