Strange how this 'Title Run-in' piece comes out now?

Also, do they honestly think that O'Neill is going to rollover for the Rags? I can't see it myself and if the title was run on paper then the Rags would be 10 points ahead by now, it's just the way.

Still, O'Neill has a year as a blue shirt. He can do it.

How can they be so blatantly biased? Saying we're both going to get the same number of points from a run-in (of which ours is more difficult). Biased bastards

Who did Utd play at home when we won the title in 68?

There all quite fair results apart from arsenal away. Our shocking away form comes from teams parking the bus and holding their shape well. Arsenal won't do that, they will attack us. So if we take that as bullshit considering our results away against teams that have attacked us (5-1, 6-1, what would of been 4/5-1 against Chelsea until the ref got involved and fucked the game up) so I think we will win that one. I'm not so confident of beating the scum at home though, considering we will be playing with 10 men against 12. But we might just nick this shiiiiiit aslong as they drop a point or 2 on the way.

Rags problem has been at home. There aren't many games at home left to trouble them but I'd have said that about Blackburn. However, I doubt they'll piss about with formations anymore, so I don't see them dropping many points. Think we need to drop 2 at most (arsenal) and beat them and then it comes down to goal difference. Would love it if the 1-6 was all that cost them the title.

Our biggest problem will be beating Sporting & them losing to Athletic now they are back on top & expected to win the league, leaving us with 2 more euro trips with potentially away games in league after the travelling before the final in between our last 2 games so spoiling our focus

And people on here are already throwing the towel in laughable really.13 Years ago our run in contained the likes of York,Stockport,Oldham and we now fear going to Arsenal to send a message to Trafford please wake me at the end of May.

cant see them loosing at blackburn....cant see us beating newcastle away...our away form is muck....they will win it by at least 3-4 points.
i do hope i am wrong as i really thought we could do it but not now despite trying to be upbeat not confidant at all now.

arsenal, stoke and newcastle away, very hard to win those 3 and we would need to.

I am not entirely sure why the piece is considered bias.

After looking at the run in after xmas I thought we would have to be at least five points clear at the start of March to ensure we could win the league. If I sat and did the predictions thing I think I would have them winning the league by five points.

To be honest if anything I can see us dropping more points than Sky seem to predict. Don't think it is biased. Cannot see United losing the title now.
