Get a fair bit more excited...

Chelsea's run in games - Currently 65 points.
Pompey
Villa
ManU
Bolton
Spurs
Stoke
Liverpool
Wigan

United's run in games - Currently 69 points.
Bolton
Chelsea
Rovers
City
Spurs
Sunderland
Stoke

Arsenal's run in games - Currently 67 points.
Birmingham
Wolves
Spurs
Wigan
City
Rovers
Fulham

With only 3 points the difference likely the look after the Chelsea-Pompey game, Arsenal in my opinion have the easiest run in. Anything could happen, but Blair, I wasn't celebrate just yet.

Also, on the game itself. 11th minute penalty, IMO contact was outside the box and Valencia fell/dove inside to win the penalty. Agree or not, it's over now. Will be a very interesting end to this years premierleague. I just pray that liverpool can make that top four, & if not then City. Would make for a VERY interesting transfer season.

As for the bottom 3 spots, that gap is getting wider, believe Pompey, Burnley and Hull will go down.

The laws of the game clearly state than an offence perpetrated outside the box that continues/re-occurs into the box should be a penalty rather than a free-kick outside the area.

*shrugs*  We've had it happen to us (Sunday) and against us (in the Manchester Derby).  These things tend to even themselves out over a season.

Yer tru but that was just a mini celibration / warm up celibration 4 the end if the season

After thumping a desperately poor West Ham last night, Wolves have claimed the Away-Claret-and-Blue treble (after earlier victories at Turf Moor and Villa Park).  Heh.

Round of applause for Everton taking 3 points off Man City

Thankyou, how about the lovers tiff on the sidelines? any applause for blowing the italian cool persona that Mancini had shrowded himself in?

West Ham v Sheff United at Bramhall Lane next season might be fun.

Doubt it will happen though, Burnley and Dull are so pish they will let West Ham off the hook.

Even if they go down the FA will find a way to keep them up (they won us the world cup you know)

Should already be in the CCC for cheating anyway
