    I'd say there will be a few on here attending any possible trophy parade.

    Jesus Christ. Talking about a victory parade in February
    There's still plenty of time for us to balls this up. Nothing is won yet.

    Exactly, all this talk that the league is done is something I hate to hear. It only take sus to lose 2 games and arsenal are right back in it. Let's wait until it's mathematically impossible for us to lose it, before we talk about a parade.

    Some of the articles from sports journalists are embarrassing, saying the league is done and dusted.

    I'd like to think those who despise this early victory parade malarkey, would also be fully of the opinion the league is not done if we are trailing the leaders by 8 or 11 points with 11 games to play.

    Over the last 6 games, only Everton have matched our points tally. 7 of our last 11 pl games are at home.

    I'll bet we win the league if anyone wants to bet against me

    Only takes 2 games

    well that'll be double we've lost in 11 games we've gone 27 with 1 loss.

    We've just had our toughest period.....

    It'll take some blowing that's for sure, especially as arsenal don't even have a striker.

    Think even stevo is getting a bit excited

    The negativity on here is becoming a joke considering how we're looking in the league and doing, enjoy it ffs... won't happen again for ages

    Only a complete tit would be celebrating winning the title in February with a likely 8 point lead.

    Almost as much of one as someone who declared the title race as 'over'.... were their team 8 points behind at the same stage.

    We once won a league title after being 12th.. that's:
    1
    2
    3
    4
    5
    6
    7
    8
    9
    10
    11
    12

    At Christmas - 1981/82

    In January of '82 we were 8 points behind Ispwich and Ipswich had played a game less.. So a chance for 11 points behind on the same games played.. As mentioned we won the title.

    The reality is - with this many games to go and a cup final v the Toon.. - up next at Anfield in the league...and hopefully more than just 2 CL games V PSG....it is the behaviour of a fool to be talking about victory parades.

    100% agree it would take some blowing. But it could still be done.

    Weren't arsenal 8 points clear in April last year?

    It's almost like you want us to fail sometimes the way you bang on about how every game is tough how we're gonna drop pts etcetc always dooming it, yet here we are, siill going, still looking good.

    Keep thinking the worst and being dissapointed and don't enjoy it =)

    I'm a bit doomin the CL tie, because they'll rape trent, but i'd be happy with the league.
