The race for Champions League football

It's all set up for us to be able to do it, it's delivering that expectation that scares me. Arsenal games haven't been strolls in the park in recent years and newcastle just got tiote and cabaye back to first team duties. Oh and there's all the sub par teams that seem to enjoy taking points off us with ease

Chelsea v Bolton and Newcastle v Wolves today.

I would be surprised if our two rivals didn't take the points today.

Chelsea are on a bad run of form though and Wolves may benefit from having a new manager in charge. Hopefully at least one of them will spring a surprise and take something and do us a favour.

Arsenal have the toughest game of the weekend though with Spurs at home tomorrow. I really fancy Tottenham to take something off a poor Gunners side.

If Bolton or Wolves can score first in their games, it could really set them up for at least a point.

I fancy Bolton more than Wolves to get something today.

---

Gutierrez and Cissé have put Newcastle 2-0 up against Wolves.

That looks like game over already.

Newcastle will go six points ahead of us and into fourth place, unless Chelsea win their game.

---

Wolves have got it back to 2-2!! 

---

Chelsea are winning 2-0 though 

---

Sunderland's resurgence appears to be dropping off as they are losing 3-0 at West Brom.

---

Lampard has made it 3-0 

---

Arsenal v Spurs has kicked off.

Dive by Gibbs, looking for a penalty. Correct decision 

I am sure after our cup win today it will give the lads some confidence 

Really hope we beat Arsenal next week it's gonna be a tough one though.

Lose to arsenal n I thibk 10 points wil b to much even with a game in hand suppose this is our 6 pointer.

RVP injured soon

Don't think we will get fourth now. Arsenal have won four on the bounce now n we don't look like getting a run going. I think we can finish above Chelsea and Newcastle n think that should b the aim now. Best just to forget about champs league hopefully do well in the fa cup.
