Agree. It might as well be called 'the Man Utd rule' it seems so transparent.

Wilson will definitely be getting an injury , if Trips mates all have a bet he will be getting a ban
Such a shame we’re not neck and neck and a win putting us above them, but it is what it is. That’s our own fault. That being said, we’re still in with a shout and giving these pricks a good beating Thursday will hopefully dent their confidence. It will also give us an opportunity to go 4th in the table if we beat Burnley. This would really heap pressure on Woolwich going into the Newcastle game. We can do it, come on!!!
There's also a scenario that we are 3rd on sunday, if Chelsea lose v Leeds tomorrow that is. Step by step though, this is Tottenham Hotspur after all.
Yes I’m waiting for the outcome of that Leeds game first before thinking that scenario. If Leeds beat Chelsea at home and we beat Woolwich Thursday, then us 3 are literally neck and neck going into the last 2 games
Hope you are right. They sure as hell turned up last day of the 2016 season.
It’s a bitter irony that our beating Burnley would make Everton safe
Typical
I completely don't care what happens to "other" teams unless it directly hurts THFC.
I wanted Newcastle to beat City.
It would directly hurt us because Everton wont be required to beat Woolwich
Why would you think I give a fuck about Everton ?
Doesn’t make much difference imo. In some ways, the pressure will be off and they can just go and play vs Arsenl if they are safe. Pressure is on Goons
That KO time vs Burnley is a shitter for us.
dont do this to yourselves lol.
Chelsea only have to beat Watford at home on last day of the season. Roy and their players couldn’t give a fuck and have been on the beach for weeks.
True though it would be us or Woolwich not utd who benefited this year if the rule was in place.
If and big if we beat Woolwich i'd be really concerned about Burnley. They would have had 8 days to prepare, fighting for their lives, a dreaded lunchtime kick off when we're generally flat, potential over confidence after hopefully beating Woolwich. Its got all the ingredients for another Brighton type game. Still one game at a time i suppose.
They need 4 points in last 3 games if we win our games.
Highly unlikely, but if they lose to Leeds tonight huh
what we need is for Everton to go on another small shit run. We want Everton bang in that relegation race end of the season. They go to Woolwich with something to play for, they can easily get something
They’ll still be half cut if they’re safe
This … could do with Watford getting a result
It's the hope that kills you.
