You really think both Chelsea and Newcastle will get 10 more points than us in 6 games?

They’d have to be in title winning form and we’d have to be on relegation form all at the same time.
Hmm, 10 out of 18 is not really title winning form. In the last 5 games, Chavs have got 11 points. Newcastle 10. Of course, I don’t think they’ll finish above us, but they’ll both sniff around top 4 next year.
 
With Woolwich and City of of Champions League and Liverpool and West Ham on their way out of Europa League, I guess (without knowing) , that Spurs need to get that 4th place to play Champions League next season.
 
Loser mentality of our fan base is now ingrained.

Stop this shit!!!!!!!!!!!
6 games to go. CL football still in our own hands.

Woolwich. Annual collapse.
Liverpool. Falling apart.
City. On the wobble.

And 3 other games against shite.

If we don’t get CL I’m ripping up my season ticket and burning my membership.
That will learn you Daniel!!!!

I'd be very happy with CL as it means we have finished the season well but also happy with EL. Thought we would do well to finish 6th at the start of the season so all going better than expected.
Big bonus for me with EL as said above is that there are no longer any CL drop outs which was always wrong.
Whatever competition we are in I'd like us to try and win it.

Correct. Some happy with Europa league is bonkers. I fucking hate this mentality. 4th is in our hands. The top 3 will start to feel the pinch so it’s probably the best time to be facing them. If we don’t get 4th then we don’t deserve champions league football and Europa will have to be next best. Villa have a tough run in too and will get through tonight so they’ll have a semi final to be worrying about too.

Absolutely content with either scenario, I wouldn't say I'll be happy to finish 5th but if we finish 5th so be it, it's what we deserve and I'm not looking at that as a massive disappointment, would prefer CL though obviously.

No fight.
Battle till the last game and we’re gutted if we get beaten by Villa in a race to 4th. It’s the only mentality to have.

Some idiots were saying we were in a title race not that long ago. This here is the race. It’s two horse. Fuck coming second.
