You'll win at your place.

Will we bollocks mate, the only team we've beaten apart from the three around us (Blackburn, Wigan and Rotherham) since October is Ipswich, and they're shit as well.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

No chance Blackburn will go down mate, will be us, Rotherham and probably Wigan if Wolves get their shit together.

Results will come....

I'm joking. You'll be fine. You'll get a few points here and there between the end of the season, we probably won't get to what you're on now.

Burton at home is a much tougher game than us away on the final day.

Newcastle and Fulham have decent run ins. Burton's notably tough.

Our run in actually looks alright compared with a few of the others around us, but it's about character now. If it came down to the final day our team is spineless and mentally weak, we'd piss it away.

We will go down.

Also, I had Wolves down to beat us in the predictions. Wolves always beat us.

 

[HarrogateMackem]

Why

Massive allocation, cheap, good pies and an excellent day on the drink

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Johnson out. Shit manager.

Johnson out. Shit manager.

He'll get a contract extension after that.

 

[Ciderup]

That was a nice surprise I will admit and we played some good stuff for the first time in months.
I think Burton are looking vulnerable now if I'm honest, particularly with their fixtures.
One performance doesn't mean we are, by any means, going to stay up but after tonight I think we might have a decent chance.

 

[Gerry Gow]

Well, that's thrown a spanner in the works!

 

[roversfan2001]

Need to win today now, still confident we'll stay up though.

We have a fucking season ticket for this thread.

Room for one more?

The highest we've been is 20th this season. We're the owners of this thread.

 

[big mean bunny]

pulled 5 points clear but more importantly put 5 bodies between us and the shark. Issue we have now is 2 home games in a row where as we look a much better team away.

Blackburn Rovers fans always playing billy big bollocks, it's clearly Rotherhams.

Can tell you aren't used to actually being alright. 9th in the league and you still find your way in here.

Rotherham, Us + 1 other.

Fucking rubbish again.

 

[SMH]

Rotherham us and Burton or Blackburn.

Give over

Rotherham us and Burton or Blackburn.

More likely to be us than Blackburn.

 

[TomPNE94]

So we've got about 6 teams going down according to this thread. Excellent.

 

[markwwfc1992]

Hey for what it's worth I think we might stay up now...

 

[HertsWolf]

Rotherham, Us + 1 other.

Fucking rubbish again.

I can actually see this happening. I'm gutted. Like you were when we went down.

 

[Jockney]

What's the record for lowest points tally in the second tier? I know that if Rotherham don't pick up any more points this season they will equal the all-time Football League record.

24.

Someone just posted it on the City forum.

 

[TractorBoys]

If we don't take 3 points from one of the next two games (Brum or Wigan) then we really could be on course for car crash end of season viewing. I can't quite bring myself to expect it to be happen, but we're definitely looking over our shoulders simply because we cannot buy a win at the moment (Last 10: W1D8L2). If I had to predict now, I'd suggest we're going to just about fall over the line in shockingly shit fashion - 19/20th or so.

If we're right in the thick of it after FT away to Burton though on April 14th with Newcastle(H), Rotherham(A), Wednesday(H) & Forest(A) left to play, I genuinely think we could fuck it.

 

[big mean bunny]

Poor Stockport County.

 

[Veggie Legs]

Give over

We've won two games in 2017. I don't think we're going to get relegated, but we're not safe yet and there is a distinct lack of confidence about the team at the moment.. As TB says, next two games are crucial, if we don't win at least one of them then we're really in a relegation battle.

 

[M Dogg]

We've really fucked it this season. I don't think we have it in us for a scrap. I'd say on paper our team is too good to go down but we just don't have the leaders or fight in us to do this. Genuinely think we will go down with a bit of a whimper!

If you do go down I am going to trawl through my twitter feed all your fans who were giving me shit when I once asked why Sako would even consider going to Forest just because we were in L1...even if we still go down!

Ipswich vs Birmingham
Brentford vs Bristol City
Preston vs Forest
Brighton vs Blackburn
Huddersfield vs Burton
Newcastle vs Wigan

Horrendous set of fixtures for Blackburn, Burton and Wigan this weekend, would be surprised if any of them got anything from those three games. Ipswich vs Brum is a biggie that we could do with Ipswich winning; there's no real danger of them dropping imo, but Brum are seriously in the shit. El Guapo's gone very quiet in recent weeks I've noticed.

Us and Forest have tough away games against inform sides that I can't see either of us getting anything from either, but we shall see.

Surely if the Blues are 'in the shit' we want Ipswich to win, dropping them further in to the mix?
