Competition Can we still win the league?

Factual.
If we were 5 points off top in even joint second place then you give yourselves a small chance.
Bit if you still have 3 times between you and top spot the statistics and history tells you it’s too much of a gap.
I would be interested to see what the biggest comeback to win the league is with ten games remaining.
In terms of points caught up and position.
History also says woolwich fall away and we finish above them.
Personally not interested in their history, or any other history, I'm interested in this team winning every game from now and seeing where it gets me.
I'm hopeful that our reduced minutes over the season starts paying dividends over the coming weeks.
Hopefully the bigger teams are flagging by April with their cup commitments (Liverpool and Woolwich in particular have depth issues). Whereas we should have a fully fit squad raring to go with plenty of rest days.
I fancy us to break the Anfield hoodoo this season. I think they are really outperforming their level when you see some of the sides Klopp puts out. We have the quality to take advantage.
I smell a draw in the Woolwich game. For me it's a must not lose rather than must win. Have to slow down these cunts title charge and a draw will do that.
City, as ever, will be a bit of a free hit and we do have a great home record against them.
Navigate the rest of March and this is shaping up to be one of the most entertaining run ins in a long time.

I have a strong feeling you are not a scholar young man. You may be shocked by what you find in the history books if you ever picked one up.
So I will leave you to your flights of fancy and get back to my studies on the influence of Jacobean architecture.
Very interesting. Not to you obviously!!
I'm generally optimistic, but they have a secret weapon:
* the detail-eyed among you will deduce that this is indeed a well-dipped bin-full of dipper doping-doobies.
It's hard to compete with cheats.
Dipper-Doping-Doobies is now trademarked and I own the domain, so don't get any ideas.
Like Chelsea
It also depends when it is.
I would love for you to be correct, but realistically, there is no way we will be allowed to get anything out of that game. I just hope we come out the other side of it with no suspensions.

Stallone did it in Rocky 4 (with a little help from James Brown, of course).
“You have to dream Eddie … you’ve got to hold on to the dream”. A quote from Richard Richard Esquire……
If, by that point, we can't win the league (yeah yeah) but are looking good for CL places and Arse are still sniffing at it, then I'll accept the loss with good grace.
We'll probably have the Chav game between the last couple of weeks. There is, frankly, no good time to have it from now on, but after our home game against Burnley, perhaps.
I’ve always said if we’re within 6 points of top when we play those 3 big games in a row, we have a chance
Loving the optimism in this thread ,knowing us we lose to the goons but take points off the other two and let the unthinkable happen .
I'd go:
Liverpool: draw (don't think we will win it)
Arse: us
City: draw
The City game will probably move due to the FA Cup Semi - and then magically get re-scheduled as the penultimate game
Leaving us with the prospect of deciding the title in favour of either City or those cunts
It's amazing how the 'random' fixture generator throws up these scenarios!
That’s the key thing this season. We only need to be within 2 points (or 3 points and GD ) on the last day of the season. And we play all three of the clubs we’re competing with before then. Woolwich or City or both drop points in their head to head too. So we are in the title race still. Barely, but with Ange it could just about happen still.
