Well, it now looks as if the title is a two-horse race as Man Utd’s 4-1 spanking by Citeh leaves them 12 points behind us in third place. I know we still have to play them, but even an unfavourable result at Highbury would surely leave too much for them to do. It’s been some season for United, they sold their best player, replaced him with middle of the road players, saw their manager go head to head with the biggest shareholders over the rights to horse spunk, crash out of Europe and now this. They’ll be super-hyped for the two games against us though, and I suspect their season now revolves around making life as difficult as possible for us. Expect two very physical games.
Nice to see Liverpool showing their worth as well, I wonder how Gerard Houllier will explain the 31 point gap between his side and Arsenal at the top of the table? So long as the Liverpool board buy it and keep him on and allow him to spend another £15m on the new Wiltord that is Dribbly Cissy, I don’t mind.
Thanks to everyone who emailed me to tell me about St.Totteringham’s Day, the time during the league campaign where it becomes arithmetically impossible for Spurs to finish above us in the league. This happened mid-week when they drew or lost or something. Their results are just insignificant now, until the end of April anyway.
Other than that there’s very little going on this Monday morning. No mid-week games this week and we
entertain our old friends from Bolton this coming weekend. I won’t be happy with anything less that 18-0 against the Walrus and his ramshackle mercenaries. More on this during the week, I suppose.
So, how was your weekend?
