Competition The Race for 4th

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Regardless of what any of us thinks about the chances of Newcastle doing the business, then Everton having poor results starting today seems important. Everton needing a result on the last day will be helpful no matter what happens before then.
 
to be fair they would have to really thump everton last game of the season even if they do get another 4 here. if they get another 4 here they go 1 behind us, we beat them 1-0 we go 3 in front of them, they draw and we win 1-0 we go 4 in front..so last game of the season they have to beat everton like 6-0 while we only win 1-0 isn't that right?
No - I think the disagreement is about whether or not last night's point could be relevant to final positions. Airfixx has already provided a couple of perfectly reasonable scenarios whereby yesterday's point could be crucial. Unless I'm misunderstanding the point you are making of course, in which case apologies. :)
 
Just got to beat the cunts Thursday, then beat Burnley to see how the goons handle the pressure in a tricky away game
 
At the moment I wonder how many of us would take simply having a chance going into the last game? For example if we were offered to go into the last game 3 points behind them, knowing that we would need to win but also need Everton to beat them, would we take that right now? Tbh I probably would, given the situation we find ourselves in.

Presumably some might hope for a better scenario, and of course I do too, but I just want to have at least a glimmer of hope on the last day, and for that, pretty much everything rests on beating them on Thursday (in a game that by rights they should already have forfeited 3-0 let's not forget...)
