Arsenal managed to keep up their title challenge this afternoon with a narrow 1-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford and they did Newcastle a favor today.
It means that Manchester United remain 3 points behind Newcastle with a worse goal difference.
Premier League Table 2023-2024
| Position | Team | Played | Won | Lost | Drawn | GD | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 | Tottenham | 38 | 20 | 12 | 6 | 13 | 66 |
| 6 | Chelsea | 38 | 18 | 11 | 9 | 14 | 63 |
| 7 | Newcastle | 38 | 18 | 14 | 6 | 23 | 60 |
| 8 | Man United | 38 | 18 | 14 | 6 | -1 | 60 |
| 9 | West Ham | 38 | 14 | 13 | 10 | -14 | 52 |
That means even if we lose at Old Trafford on Wednesday night we will still be above the Old Trafford side on goal difference.
The real threat now is Chelsea who have found some good form recently.
Manchester United play Newcastle at home on Wednesday night then Brighton away next Sunday.
Chelsea play at Brighton on Wednesday night and then at home to Bournemouth next Sunday.
Newcastle play Manchester United at Old Trafford on Wednesday and then we are way at Brentford next Sunday.
So there you have it – it will be important that we don’t lose at Old Trafford, but two wins will clinch 6th place and European Football for Newcastle next season.
Howay the Lads!!

Comment #43JohnJ,
Was great to meet you finally. I’m 5ft 10” mate so not lanky, no a short fella just in between mate 😉
It was difficult to chat in that bar as it’s noisy I think you were struggling to hear people. Aye it was a pleasure to meet you and I got your card “Irish, Contemporary & Traditional music Folk music” – That’s me mams music and my missus although in her mid 30s loves folk music through her Grandad. So we may pop in and see one of your shows mate 😉

Both teams equal with goal difference of 1 better for Arsenal
Arsenal v Everton
City v West Ham
And us got to beat Man Utd
But can see Man Utd beating us
Brighton beating Chelsea
Would mean all three teams on equal points
With
Brentford v Newcastle United
Chelsea v Bournemouth
Brighton v Man Utd

Comment #49Flurz,
I was asking where you were at the meet you never came mate? Would have been good to meet you mate as you’re one of the lads mate.
Be sure to attend the next one. That extends to Ledge, CH, Rom, Regan, Clint, TMQ, CBob, and last but definitely not least Check. And many more. 🙂

Comment #50About 38 hearts for his comment. And the heart machine man wasn’t there, so work it out Huckleberry.
But even if there wasn’t agreement ( which there was ) the whole experience was more enjoyable.
As Rob said, plenty of the troublemakers were at the match. I can think of two, with another selling strawberries.

Comment #56I do also like Hall on the other side. You get the feeling he might be there to stay now, as first choice next term.

Comment #58I actually like Nicky’s team on the last page. Are we saying that Schar is fit again though? As I thought he was out for the rest of the season.

Comment #59Flurz, you’re boring me. Go back and look. If it’s not word for word, it’s pretty close. You halfwits aren’t looking at the sentiment, just the wording. Anyway I’m not too bothered either way what you think sunshine. And I’m not one of the lads? Ooooh I’m devastated!

Comment #61Nicky, Hall is improving by the game. Great to see. I heard somewhere earlier that we are close to getting the two free defenders. Hopefully true. Some start to the window.

Comment #64Yeah, I hope so Munster. They seem like they’d be two great additions at the back, to what we have. Big and fast, and technical.

Comment #65Munster,
If you cannot speak English,don’t try and lie with it!
You had a go at good lads and lasses on here for no reason, other than to make a row!
Hide down your back street!
By the way it is spelled CRACK,not your craic(Irish).
Even your Irish brothers disowned you!

Comment #72Krafth is sound, but we’ve surely missed Schar’s distribution and the way he brings it out. He’s had a great season, and is I think without doubt our best option at rcb.

Comment #73Loch to be fair we need to give up on 5th. After yesterday 6th might be hard enough. Once we get some form of Europe though, it will be great. I can see Brighton stinging Chelsea, and I don’t think we’ll lose to Man U

Is this man wired really bad, he is actually obsessed with the Hearts system, he is the only person that mentions hearts…I think jail’s blind apprentice wired Munster up. This fella is definitely unhinged and is getting worse.
Munster if you need to reach out to someone for help please call this number: 0300 123 3393 – You can reach them from Ireland too, they may be able to help in some way

Comment #80I’d love to offer my thoughts on Rafa which would include inside stories of his time at Italian clubs “coming home” but I have said previously I’ll say no more about him on this blog so I’ll adhere to that
