Dr Zeuss 0 Posted May 8, 2013 Spurs equaliser ensures that Arsenal still need at least a win to ensure at least 4th place and Champions league football. If Spurs had lost tonight and again to Stoke on Sunday Arsenal would have only needed a draw against Wigan next week. Arsenal will now still have to go for a win by my reckoning. Also probably ensures that Spurs will need a result against Sunderland to maintain any hope of champions league football next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
York Canary 28 Posted May 8, 2013 Precisely what I was thinking. I was a big Spurs fan tonight. A win would have been ideal, but I''ll take a draw as it ensures Arsenal go all out against Wigan should Spurs beat Stoke (which I hope they do!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIL 1010 4,746 Posted May 8, 2013 Great result which will not help Wigan one little bit for the game against the Gooners just 3 days after a Cup Final defeat to Man City which will hopefully put a hole in what little confidence they now have after the Swansea result last night.

killiecanary 0 Posted May 8, 2013 Not to mention the fact that the draw means that Chelsea still need to beat Villa on Saturday to be sure of CL spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,749 Posted May 8, 2013 never mind any of that.....Chelsea should now be all out to beat Villa....and if they do as win for us on Sunday and we''re safe ...and Wigan,Arsenal,Spurs etc cant do what they like!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
birchfest 397 Posted May 8, 2013 Everything going to plan, everyone has got something to play for... excpet Brom and Man City amusingly, maybe we should all turn up in our board shorts to encourge their players to get into the beach mood! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
York Canary 28 Posted May 8, 2013 Hopefully Arsenal will be all out against Newcastle too (who may well draw or lose against QPR). Arsenal could have a big influence on things yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yelloow Since 72 54 Posted May 8, 2013 Be interesting to see if this shifts the survival odds any further in our favor. It''s certainly not going to help Wigan''s morale! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
