Including the wolves game its something like 620+ minutes I think? I know it was not the result we wanted but we are still 4th, we're in the next round of the cup with a home draw and 2 of the big 4 out already, and we're on our best run of form of the season so far! If we had been offered that at the beginning of the season, particuarly after last season's trials and tribulations, we would all have taken it!

Lets continue to be positive!

It's a great achievement to have kept six consecutive clean sheets and quite un-Spurs-like. However, I think it's a little like the Man Shitty run of draws. You can't really tell whether it was a "hooray no losses" or "FFS we haven't won in months" until the run ends. Have we let too many points slip during all those clean sheets or have we done really well by not losing a game in that run? A bit of each I suspect.

And of course the big one is whether we prolong the run at Anfield AND take all 3 points. If we do, then I think the run can be considered a success overall.

I think I read somewhere that the last time we had 5 clean sheets in the league in a row was in 2001 and that is a PL-era record... so a clean sheet against Liverpool will be a new PL record for us.

We've won four, drawn two. That includes tough away trips to Fulham and Blackburn and a home match against one of our direct rivals for fourth place. That's pretty good going, in my opinion. The only result we really should've improved on was the Hull match.

You're probably right - but the Hull draw feels so disappointing that it colours it a bit. Three points and a clean sheet at Anfield will more than put it right :grin:

I have this feeling that if we so take all three points at Anfield on Wednesday, it will reinvigorate self (squad) belief of what this group of players is able to achieve - a massive shot in the communal arm.

Three points will also keep the pressure on our immediate competitors for fourth place. The run of teams in February should provide for a bounty of points that will be there for grabbing if we do one to Liverpool.

Don't jinx the mojo. You could ruin the streak by speaking "Cleen Sheat" out loud or writing it. Someone is gonna have to ritualistically sacrifice a chicken just to cleanse the karma soiled by this thread...
