Squeaky Time
Certainly it has now become squeaky time for everyone - United now have to win 3 games and draw one, out of seven, a very tall order - assuming the NN don't drop any points.
Stanley need to get as many points as they can and it does look as though they are on a roll and heading for safety.
Liverpool trying desperately to qualify for Europe - the Europa League that is - or is the main aim to get above Everton. Where are the glory days gone when the scousers could be expected to be fighting for the title.
Finally, and it may well be terminal, the Deadwood Gang. Can they get out of the relegation zone or are they dooooomed and going down to the 1st Division and starting on the slippery slope to oblivion - perhaps an even greater humiliation is that Burnley are way above them - perhaps R.I.P. Deadwood
The next few weeks are going to be interesting

don't know, but they'll probably be better than watching a team only rely on own goals, imagine having to bring in acoustic experts because there's no matchday atmosphere, 75,000 plastic fans watching a plastic team of players bought from other clubs for millions of pounds

But they are still top of the Premier League whilst your Deadwoods appear to be hell bent on trying to become League 1 champions next season

Check your facts Jay about who spends the most. It would appear that the Deadwoods don't have many fans according to their gates and the same goes for Stanley.
United have spent years in the wilderness but the support was always there - even when thay went into the 2nd Division they had crowds bigger than most 1st Division clubs and they certainly boosted the attendance at other clubs in the 2nd Division - whereas your teams just get lower and lower gates. Both you and Cashy should be able to see that, or is a trip to Specsavers needed by you both - By the way Jay, which are your two clubs this week?

That's right, Barrie, we have about a thousand diehards, a team of honest journeymen occasionally complemented by a rising star on his way up or a fading star on his way down, a ground comprising cobbled-together sheds and portakabins and life's a constant struggle punctuated by the occasional triumph. Not a patch on your £150,000-a-week superstars, luxury executive stands and frequent title wins. But I'll tell you something - when I stand on the terraces supporting my LOCAL club in the town I grew up in, surrounded by local folk, many of whom I've known most of my life...I wouldn't swap places with you for owt!

Think that's the answer to all plastic trophy hunting fans, It really sickens me when you hear people on Telly asked where they come from and what are their favourite pastimes is football, and they blurt out oh Norwich who do you support Manchester flaming United
