Welcome to Double Maths & Soothsaying For Beginners. 

If we rake through what may or may not be going through the minds of our coaching staff for one more blog we’re more liable to be sectioned under the Mental Health Act than to find inner peace or enlightenment.

And so there are still 9 games to go.

Can that one sentence can offer restore the perspective that we’ve had systematically battered beaten out of us since Arry became England’s number one in waiting? 

Here are the fixtures and my take is based upon us playing good football, players in their correct positions. If Arry plays Friedel as a lone striker at any stage, all bets are off.

Stoke H Anti football has barely kept them in the top half of the table. Consistently mediocre all season. That said, they did us 2-1. 3 points

Chelsea A This ‘orrible lot are less reliable than us. With a bit of luck Mata will get hit by a bus driven by John Terry before we meet them.  1 point

Swansea H What a season. Premiership fresh meat has rarely been fresher and meatier. With a no frills, no nonsense typemanager  3 points

Sunderland A Rejuvenated under the reserved auspices of the man with the cheapest spectacles working in show business today. 1 point

Norwich H I’m glad this isn’t at Carrow Road, our little cherubs need to play sides who can ‘get messy’ indoors on a proper pitch 3 points

Bolton A Dire all season 3 points

QPR A By the time this game comes round Mark Hughes will have hit DefCon4. Expect a particularly ugly card fest 1 point

Blackburn H Whilst they sensationally beat Marnchesta Yanited they’ve achieved little else this term and if we screw this one up… 3 points

Aston Villa A If the our luxury coach can get past the burning effigies of McLiesh their lack of firepower should just about sink ’em 3 points

Fulham H If the Dutch Napolean’s Russian maintains his current form they will cause everyone problems including little ol’ us 1 point

So I say 22 points. What say you?

    My money is on 27 points and winning the league.

    But then again I put the wife’s inheritance on Napoleon liking Elba and Johnny Rotten doing a duet with Michael Jackson.

    3rd place for me – not me, I mean us, well you know what I mean, Tottenham. yes

    nearly Shiraz time

  • Bernard says:

    Fulham is at home. I love the way after 3 straight defeats that Harry Hotspur is now predicting we do not lose for the rest of the season!! I would agree with 19 points but expect us to lose at Chelsea and Sunderland. Those 2 point to be made up by Big Martin Jol giving us 3 points at the lane on the final day. Redknapp goes on about injuries but the only person we are missing from the team who didn’t lose for months is Lennon. Play the players in their best position. If I see Bale anywhere other than hugging the left touchline for the rest of the season I’m gonna fcuking scream.

    • Nikolay Bollukov says:

      So who do you want on the right? Someone’s got to play there

      • UnkleKev says:

        Bentley? At least the team keeps its shape that way.

        • Hartley says:

          If we had kept Corluka we could have tried Walker anead of him…..just a thought…

        • UnkleKev says:

          Yes, ’cause Corluka was completely happy being Walker’s understudy…

        • Hartley says:

          I obviously didn’t mean him as an understudy, I meant in the same team with Charlie as RB and Walker as RM….next season we should have Naughton back so that this system will be do-able and as for your suggestion of Bentley…..The bloke is so far out of place in the premier league he now needs a sat nav to know which way he is playing… :daumen:

      • Higgins says:

        Frankly, I’d be happy if no one played on the right as long as we had Bale on left and Modric in middle.

    • Harry Hotspur says:

      Yes that’s right. I have predicted we’ve going to lose every game. Sorry if I didn’t make that clear.

    • Heath Spur says:

      Can’t see Chelski getting more than at point at Citeh so assuming we beat Stoke we should go to the Fridge at least 5 points ahead of them.

      Even if we lose At Chelski we should finish comfortably ahead of them.

  • abe says:

    There’s 10 games to go!

  • OldSpur says:

    More to the point – what are C&A’s fixtures like ?

    • Heath Spur says:

      Chelski- Citeh away, Pool away, Arse away, Newcastle at home, Villa away, Fulham away

      Arse- Chelski home, Newcastle home, Toffees away, Villa away, Citeh home, Stoke away

      Not in that order but those are the toughest fixtures they both have left. Plenty of point dropping amongst that lot.

  • UnkleKev says:

    Using Kojac’s infallible 21-win system, we only need to win five more games to secure a Champions Leage spot. I’m not expecting anything from either Chelsea or Sunderland (’cause we’re Spurs and that’s what we do) but home wins against Stoke, Swansea, Norwich and Blackburn plus one away win from either QPR, Villa or Bolton should see us comfortably looking forward to the San Siro and the Camp Nou next year.
