how many chickens?

ARSENAL lost to bolton. 10 point lead for Chelsea now. and i was quite tempted to head straight for the chicken coop.

BEING a fan of almost 10 years i’ve seen numerous horrendous cockups from my beloved Chelsea. but now it’s 10 points clear with 15 games to go. (in d premiership)

LET’S take a look at Chelsea’s next 11 opponents in d premiership. portsmouth, blackburn, man city, everton, west brom, norwich, crystal palace, southampton, birmingham and then manure and arsenal. 33 points up for grabs.

THERE are a few decent teams within there, not least manure and everton, and a potential banana skin in birmingham. man city is another one but i fully expect mourinho’s men to dish out some good ol’ revenge after dealing to us our only defeat of the season.

WITH all due respect to those teams, the first nine teams are quite the kind of teams we’d wanna be facing to rack up our points tally. from the 27 points possible in those 9 games, we shldn’t drop more than 5. and if we can draw against both manure and arse, it’d be at least a 5 point gap with 4 games to go.

TAKING the analysis one step further provides even more cause for optimism. Chelsea face fulham, bolton, charlton and newcastle in d last 4 games. these are teams which would most likely be safe from relegation yet unable to gain a european place. ie. their seasons are over.

MANYOO and arsenal both haf to face relegation strugglers southampton and westbrom in their last 4 matches. we all know d damage relegated teams can do after they feel no more pressure and just wanna spoil some parties. arsenal will haf to face fierce rivals spurs, possibly chasing a uefa cup place, too.

I have my calculator. and abacus. and i’d be outside the chicken coop. but i’m won’t be going in to start counting. not yet. =D
