Survival Sunday

After 10 months of toil and sweat, the 2007/2008 season of the English Premier league has come down to 90 minutes of football to decide who will be the champion. Both Manchester United and Chelsea are tied on points, separated by United's superior goal difference.

Another 3 teams, Birmingham, Fulham and Reading, find themselves at the wrong end of the table fighting the dreaded drop. 2 of these 3 teams will find themselves joining Derby County to be relegated after their matches tonight.

Thanks to cable tv, we have an unprecedented simul-cast of 8 live matches beam live half way across the globe to this football-mad nation. Remember this will be the last EPL night of the season before we plunge into 3 months of "cold turkey" treatment waiting for the new season to kick-off.
