Whilst not as s*** luck as dying in hospital of course, this is f***ing unimaginably s*** luck in a sporting sense. FFS. 

Waited 30 years and now this

i always suspected life had no meaning

now I know that’s true 

[Case]

Has anyone considered that if we win tomorrow and City lose their next three (before we play again), that we'll have won the League tomorrow?

No?

NO?

 

Come on, people. Sing happy songs. Shake the f*** out of hands.

They'll cancel the season citing "in the current climate" and then next year there'll be another pandemic and it'll all be swept under the carpet. It's so obviously a Mike Riley conspiracy.

I reckon Everton would be more gutted than us if everything goes behind closed doors.

[growler]

Just cancel internationals in March and April. Finish domestic seasons. 

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

trouble is all the competitions are run by different bodies & they're all selfish c****, so FIFA will be "no way, cancel the European footy" UEFA will be "no way they're canceling the European Cup - domestic leagues will have to go"

 

It's all about the money

The Premier League are probably the most greedy of the lot

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

no doubt

If the season isn’t completed, i.e. every club fails to play 38 games, the season could well be declared null and void.

If that happens, even if we couldn’t be caught at the time the season is suspended, we wouldn’t be recognised as Champions.

We’d all start again August 2020 with the status quo that existed in August 2019.

I know all this cos that was the s*** dream I had last night.
 

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

In that case though I'm sure Championship sides etc would start to sue

[Swipe]

How is that not a foul 

[oakie bob]

so if city lose the next 3 before we play, we are champions............going to feel dirty tomorrow wanting Ole to win 

[Swipe]

If city draw tomorrow is it down to two wins needed? Or does only a loss do that? 

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

nah - needs must

At the moment we’re on 82, they can get 90 max - so a draw takes them to max 88. So we’d still need 7 points to be certain

No. City's max points atm is 90. A draw tomorrow would put their max at 88.

We're on 82.

If they draw tomorrow and we both win our next 2... Our 3rd game is at City and a draw would do it

[Jim D]

22 consecutive home wins.....that's just mental. Beats Shankly's record from the early 70s.  Despite our recent wobble this team is phenomenal, sometimes we forget that.

 

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

just think about it in points terms rather than wins

 

we need 9

City draw tomorrow we need 7 etc

Champions/points

(we have 82 right now)

1992 - 82

1996 - 82

1997 - 95

1998 - 78

1999 - 79

2001 - 80

2011 - 80

2016 - 81

Bring on your seasonal influenza

Bring on your COVID by the score

[psl]

Would be lovely if City could drop something so we can win it before the international break.

[Case]

I think City will draw their next two.
