How about The Race for the Final Positions or something? This smells like a Mind The Gap thread title. To my nervous mind.

For the first time in my life I have the same feeling!

That has finally got back the 3 points we dropped at home to Leicester.
And before anyone says its, we know we would have been 4pts clear had we beaten Leicester at home, or even a 1pt clear had we drawn, but we didnt.
And even if we had, you set off a different chain of events, we may not have won the next 5 matches.
The slight downside from today is that now we are finally being talked about as title challengers and I would rather have stayed under the radar, but when you win at City, how do you stay under the radar.
I will say it again.. What a weekend. Cant remember the last time we were 2pts off the top at the end of Febraury

IF Leicester should fail to beat Norwich at home on Sat 27 Feb then we will play Swansea at home the following day knowing that a win would put us TOP OF THE LEAGUE.
Two comments,
- that's why its not a bad thing the Scum won (would have preferred a draw), the media will continue to share the spotlight with Scum, Leicester still on top, us and City because of the Pep circus.
- You can't remember because it hasn't happen in the PL, and for some time before that.

Yes I am thinking either 1987 maybe, definitely 1982

Not sure thats a good thing.
Can you imagine if it was like this going into the last day
Leicester at Chelsea
Us at Saudi Sportswashing Machine
Arsenal home to Villa.
Knowing if Leicester didnt win at Chelsea we could win the title with a win at SJP. You just know either Chelsea would rollover (unless they needed a win for EL football) or failing that Villa would lose 11-0.
As it is Leicester could probably only have two easier games at home than Norwich, so I doubt it will matter. My worry is that we play on the Thursday beforehand, which is why in another thread I suggested that no one of players due to start v Swansea should even be on the pitch on Thursday night. If the 2nd X1 dont win, then they dont win

I love how the goons insist we will still bottle it. The red mancs even wanted City to win today because there's always more chance of catching us.
We've only won 5 in a row in the league and 8 of our last 10.
After years of it happening, bar a couple of times, you can hardly blame them. And the pessimist in me is always waiting for it to happen. The good thing is, it cant keep happening, surely, there has to be another 2010 when we dont.
I would love to see us win the title in my lifetime, if only once, doesnt have to be a United/Liverpool type domination for years. Just once will do me and I would die a happy man, just to feel that emotion that some of our elders experienced in 1961
I must say, today had echoes of the 2-1 victories against Chelsea and Arsenal in the run in of 2010 (and City away for that matter).
Obviously we are still a long way out and anything could happen, but these are the sort of games we need to be winning.

Heard we are now 2nd favourites, but didnt catch who are favourites.
After today I just dont know.
Leicester have less games and easier run-in but have never been there before.
I dont see Arsenal dropping another point at home, its how they do away (United,Tottenham,Everton,WHU,Sunderland,Emirates Marketing Project) that will be the diffence get 6 or more pts from those 6 matches and they will be hard to finish above

It does me too. Only because they will be so up for it. They hate us, and it's our last meeting at the Boleyn so it will boost their egos to take points off us. I hope to GHod we don't lose to them (where I live and drink it would be unbearable) but even if we do, the most they get is bragging rights for beating us. They aren't going to get top 4. Whether or not we get the title (am I really writing that) is not dependent on our game against them. In fact winning today has given us a bit of a bye to lose elsewhere.

I am so confident usually that we will never win the league that I've promised to get our badge as a tattoo. I don't even like tattoos, but my family are holding me to it. I'll hopefully be booking an appointment with Lal Hardy's at the end of the season!
