Watching Tottenham v Southampton and the Sky commentator (Chris Coleman?) has just said “1-0 is never enough to win a game”. I beg to differ, but I would suggest that 1-0 is quite often enough to win a game!
Southampton almost certainly have enough to stay up but their form is abysmal. If it carry’s on into next season they are in trouble.
It's quite often enough to lose a game as well.
I'd like to add Hitler invading Soviet somewhere in that mix
10 v 10 now, daft second yellow for Cash.

Leicester win please tonight.
I’ll extend that to their next three fixtures. Three wins for them are really going to help with our quest for a record finish. I’ll be supporting them in each match.
I also want them (and West Ham) to finish as high as possible to hammer home the ‘big six’ BS.

Let's hope so.
Norwich and Watford should be reasonably strong next season we will need a few of the existing Prem teams to have poor seasons, if we are looking to improve our standing.
The Palace rebuild will be interesting.
What makes you say Watford and Norwich will be strong? I actually think they’re going to be two of the weaker promoted sides of recent years.
Their squads are pretty similar to what they went down with last season and neither of them will spend a lot of money in the summer. Norwich will also probably lose Buendia. For me, those two and the winner of the play offs will be red hot favourites for relegation and it will be a real struggle for any of them to stay up.
The gap between the two divisions is widening as most of the lower teams that will stay up in the PL (like us and Southampton) have been there for a number of years now so have much greater resources and squads.
I think there will be a lot of yo-yoing betwen the divisions as relegated sides go straight back up and promoted sides straight back down as we’re seeing this season. The examples of us, Wolves and Leeds will become a real rarity.
