Right, we know exactly where we are. Newcastle require two Premier League victories to guarantee Champions League football and they now have back to back home matches.
It is set up perfectly.... definitely, maybe? Well yes, staged managed if it works. Squeaky time at Chelsea on the final day if United fall short. Either an ideal way to end a momentous season or far, far too close for comfort. It is always thus with Geordies.
However we stay positive as we must. Let United go out and claim their entry to Europe's elite house in the best possible way before their own passionate loyalists at St James Park.
