2015/2016 Premier League
-
<p>Arsenal got the draw this morning against City so only need a point against Villa on the final day. If Man U win their game in hand they will be above City so have it in their hands.....</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>.... and then wouldn't it be delightful for Liverpool to win Eurpopa to then steal that final place away from United! Oh how I would chuckle. If we lose to Villa, I willl slap my own smile!</p> -
<p>Spurs trying their hardest to not come 2nd</p>

<p>I'm surprised there is no mention of today's game. West Ham beats Man Utd to help Man City's chances of playing in the CL next year. :)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>BUT, the big news is that the Hammer's winning goal was scored by Winston Reid, who has the honour of scoring the last ever goal at Upton Park. </p> -

<p>Leaves Man U with a chance of 4th but if results go a certain way, they could finish as low as 8th. Given Sunderland could end the relegation battle tomorrow morning, it could be the only excitement of final day.</p>
<p>
Meanwhile Burnley and Middlesborough into the Premier League, Burnley doing the bounce again and Middlesborough after lurking around promotion for a few seasons. Brighton v Sheff Wednesday and Hull v Derby in the play-offs, current form suggests it will be a Brighton v Hull final.</p> -
<p>and there goes the interest of the final day. Relegation confirmed for Norwich and Newcastle, with Sunderland surviving. Fuck. I wanted Rafa to pull it off, and Fat Sam to get relegated.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The last day pretty much becomes a celebration, as i think only City and Man U have anything to play for. </p> -
<p>No, thats not true. There is everything to play for. If Chelsea beat Leicester, then it will prove that they are the better team, and in reality were the real winners.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If that doesn't work, then John Terry will throw Vardy's shoe over the Harding stand to prove it.</p> -

<p>in the full kit he will have on under his civvies while he sits in the stands?</p>

<p>I don't like John Terry, i think he's a fluffybunny. But even i think it's a bit sad that an absolute club legend like Terry finishes his career with the club he absolutely loves by being sent off and missing the last game. </p> -

<p>If Arsenal lose to Villa and City win then Arsenal come fourth and could lose out to the scousers if they win Europa!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also if Arsenal win and Spurs lose, we come second and all ir right within the Arsenal World</p>

<p> If Arsenal lose to a Villa side that only have 17 points from 37 games and one from their last 10, I fully expect to see Arsene's head on a pike outside Holloway Road Station</p> -

<p> </p>
<p>Exactly! As another long-suffering Arsenal fan we can console ourselves with the fact that Arsenal did beat Leicester City - twice (they've only lost 3 times to date).</p> -
<p>No one does straw clutching like Arsenal fans. </p>

<p>Arsenal fans can only dream. Wenger's got at least 10 years left of keeping Arsenal relatively mediocre before the club seems to cotton on to the fact he's not a trophy winner.</p> -

<p>and I'll take that. Mediocre is a touch rough. I call a Prem team that doesn't make Top four every year mediocre.</p> -

<p>The key word was relatively. Arsenal seem to have long forgotten that they should be a title winning team, not a top 4 team.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The FA cup double has been good, no doubt, but it's been a LONG time since that was genuinely considered a tier 1 trophy (which is sad, in itself).</p>
