    Best thing to do is forget it for now. You can start worrying on Sunday.

    For now, I think we've all earned a few days off from this harrowing nightmare of potential success.

    I'm going to watch Spurs, though

      No problem, H. That's what VAR is for
      "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

        But as you well know Red, after saving our sorry arses in such controversial fashion, PGMOL will give us nothing - NOTHING - for at least 2 years!

                Next Monday, when it is still 0 - 0 four minutes into stoppage time, Viktor Gronkey the 1 legged totally Blind Donkey, will be cruelly and illegally felled in the box by some grim northern brutalist and the ref will wave away our appeals before yellow carding Gronks for simulation. You KNOW this R!

                  That was payback from the football gods for the 'Simeone incident'.

                  0-0 in my book

                    If it is 0-0 in injury time next Monday, I probably won't be blaming the ref. Unless we are down to 9 men from 'debatable' red cards.. .

                      Too true, I'm afraid. He's due a goal too. Oh well.

                        I'm sensing a barely-disguised air of quiet confidence. Even a fussbudget like you cannot deny the inevitable any longer?

                          We have an incredible opportunity. But I never take anything for granted.

                            That's no fun, is it

                              It isnt supposed to be fun. It's a league title.

                              You have to earn it.

                              Anfieod 89 wasnt fun for 91 minutes and 24 seconds. It was sheer heaven for the last minute and a half
