A month ago us fans faced the mouth-watering prospects of the title, championship league spots, and relegation dogfight going down to the wire. Now, essentially everything is decided. ManYoo are taking (another) title, Liverpool are in the CL, and Bolton, Fulham, and Derby are all going down.
On March 7th, the table looked like so:
1) Arsenal 65pts
2) ManYoo 64
3) Chelsea 58
4) Everton 50
5) Aston Villa 48
6) Liverpool 47
7) Blackburn 45
8) ManCity 45
9) Portsmouth 44
10) WestHam 40
11) Tottenham 32
12) Boro 29
13) Newcastle 28
14) Wigan 27
15) Sunderland 27
16) Birmingham 26
17) Bolton 25
18) Reading 25
19) Fulham 19
20) Derby County 10
Now, a month later, it looks like this. What's so different? Well, Arsenal collapsed and are 6 points from the title. Everton got stuck in neutral while Villa went in reverse, as Liverpool went on their run and are now a shoe-in for 4th spot.
At the bottom, Bolton have acquired just a point; whereas Sunderland have gotten 9, Reading and Wigan 7, and Newcastle 10. Fulham have achieved 5, but are still exactly where they were a month ago -- six points adrift.
Thank God the Championship won't be decided until the very end, because the BPL sure faded fast.
