All we can do is keep winning and finish with our heads held high!!!
No team has ever NOT won the premier league by loosing 2 games all season, so If that were to happen to us this year it would prove us the most unluckiest runners-up of the title ever!!

just keep plugging away and you never know what might happen, at some point there luck will run out, also if we cant finish first then we need to make sure of second
pity about newcastle but these things happen so we have to focus on are own game and for them what will be will be.

The thing that annoys me about the Mancs run in is that Fergie has his Pawns out there in the shape of Steve Bruce (Wigan) and Mark Hughes (Man City) with those fixtures to come for them. Whatever way the results go in those matches, they will be all cheering at the end of the day.
I wouldn't be surprised if Bruce & Hughes say in their teamtalks, "Just go out there and take it easy. Pressure is off, because we're playing my favourite team, Man Utd". 
Gauranteed they get 6 points from those 2 games!!!
So we need Middlesboro and Arsenal to beat them imo!!

Bermenstein... I will blame you for not starting all the match threads if we don't win the league..

"unluckiest"? No way.
Our players don't have the experience to realise that a season lasts 38 games.
After we dropped to 2nd, they thought it was all over, heads went and we get stupid results like the boro game.
Hopefuly they realise now that if you keep getting results and stay close, there'll always be a chance to ovrtake. We almost did it this year when the mancs wobbled, but (perhaps) 6 points isn't q close enough...

Ok. But Hughes will still have a giggle to himself no matter what.

I agree Jondoe, not having the qualifier next season will be a massive burden off us. Its a game we usually struggle with so I will be happy not to have to see us in it next season.
Anyway its not over till its over, keep on going and we might just reap the rewards come May. Games are coming thick and fast for the Mancs now, tired legs at the end of the season and the fixtures pile up. Hopefuly they will be a bit tired and it'll hurt them in two or three of their remaining games.
I'm going for 3:0 Torres to get two, Stevie the other

Our squad is not good enough , our fullbacks are obvious weakness , mainly the right , left is sorted at least for another season insua and aurelio there . We have done remarkably well to be where we are and in fact i'm proud that our title challenge has lasted the whole season and we were leading the premier league till the new year . 2 or 3 more quality signings and we will be right up there

I said "Unluckiest" in relation to the fact that if we are to finish the season loosing just "2 Games", seen that any other team to loose only "2 games" in a season, went on to win the title.
So hypothetically if we are the first team NOT to the Premier League, loosing just 2 games, then YES, we would be the unluckiest runners-up!!!!!

Still don't think "unluckiest" is the right word!
Maybe "naïve" would be more applicable
"unlucky" suggests that those draws / defeats were out of our hands.
4th to 1st is a big big difficult jump for a team without title challenge experience

sad isnt it? but im sure in many eyes, not just liverpool fans, we deserve the title. so if we were to end up 2nd, id be devastated but only because the scums would have equaled our record of 18 titles (though im still defiant we have 19!). IMO the players are champions already.
