Does this mean our game vs Spurs might be on Sky... as the race for 4th is the only thing left?

It’ll be the Liverpool or Chelsea game, think Spurs are certain to finish in the top 4 after Chelsea’s draw.

So happy for Huddersfield. Hopefully Soton will go down.

 

Edit: Ah crap, they won#t the goal difference between them and Swansea is too big.

Credit where it’s due, that’s brilliant from Huddersfield to get a point at Man City and Chelsea when the pressure is on. 

Man city with nothing to play for so not totally unexpected against a team fighting for survival.  Chelsea game might have been more impressive if you ask me as they are fighting for champs league spot and needed the win.

 

But even then 2 points against those two teams is still massive for them or any team from 6th onwards lol

And Spurs have qualified for the Champions League.

 

Watch out, Europe...

Apparently getting into the CL is more important than a trophy...

Tottenham captain Hugo Lloris said qualifying for the Champions League next season "means more than a trophy" after Spurs beat Newcastle at Wembley to confirm their top-four place.

So spursy.

Cue last day of the season

 

Southampton 0 - 6 Man City

Swansea 3 - 0 Stoke

 

And Southamptons celebrations last night look a little silly.

Or stoke let swansea score 10 goals due to being pissed off at hughes ruining their season and making southampton 99% sure of staying up. That i would pay to watch.

Premier League have created this emphasis on the "top four" that it means more than actually winning a trophy hahha. Give us a trophy any day.

Although they laughed at arsenal for them saying the same thing for years...

If this were to happen, what kind of trouble, if any, would Stoke get into? I remember Wolves getting fined for fielding a weakened team against Man Utd once but this is a bit different. I would find it so funny if it did occur.

they wouldn't have to field a weaker side, just not make it obvious they were letting 10 goals in.

With it likely we're going to finish ninth, and on the assumption we lose to Spurs as Kane chases the golden ball, here is a list of our finishes in the PL and points totals

 

94/95 - 29pts, 22nd place (R)

96/97 - 47pts, 9th place

97/98 - 53pts, 10th place

98/99 - 49pts, 10th place

99/00 - 55pts, 8th place

00/01 - 48pts, 13th place

01/02 - 28pts, 20th place (R)

03/04 - 33pts, 18th place (R)

14/14 - 41pts, 14th place

15/16 - 81pts, 1st place :thumbup: :thumbup:

16/17 - 44pts, 12th place

17/18 - 47pts, 9th place

 

Absolutely amazing that in six seasons since, we've only managed to beat Peter Taylor's points total once** lol

*assuming we don't get anything from Sunday

 

And I'm getting pretty tenuous at this point, but it's only our fourth single digit placing in 12 seasons. Makes 2015-16 even more incredible.
