More reason to be optimistic :-
From Dave Maddock's column today (normally think he's full of sh!te but agree with this one - edited it slightly as I think he got his maths wrong).
Of our 11 remaining matches, 7 are against teams in the bottom half of the table, and they also face Birmingham and Fulham, who currently occupy ninth and 10th places.
Of the top eight, we play only Manchester United away and Chelsea at home.
City on the other hand, must still play five of the top eight, as must Spurs, and Villa must play four of them. None of the other three sides chasing fourth place will now face Liverpool, meaning that the City game was the last “six pointer”.
