Our lead over the team that rhymes with city has been cut thanks to a draw against Newcastle. A season ago, I would have expected three points at home against them, but with their new manager (well not new now) they have been a force to be reckoned with. With the two teams with the best defensive records playing against each other, a draw would be expected by many.
Our game against Brighton was a different matter. We did well to win it, but they exposed the defensive issues that I am still concerned about and the game was almost closer than it ended thanks to an offside decision.
Here is hoping that we keep winning rather drawing, but I doubt our form will continue when we play the big teams but I do expect us to finish in the top four. At least the team most likely to take the title did not win both matches.
