22A Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 My suggestions; 1 - City beat Brum. 2 - Wolves draw or lose at home to PNE. 3 - Ipswich draw at Forest. That combination would lift City to 15th, above Ipswich & Wolves. By finishing higher City receive more cash from the League and we are a more attractive proposition to prospective signings. A side effect would be that a draw might not be good enough to keep Forest up Elsewhere I'd prefer Hartlepool dropping out of the League rather than Newport. This is because Newport are localish (just) and they were shafted by the League of Wales and others when they last dropped out of the League.

Ska Junkie Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 Forest win, possible. Blackburn win - Unlikely, Brentford are a good side. City win - bye bye Blues. Wolves fail to win. City 15th and Brum go down. It would serve them right for the way they treated Rowett TBH not that I really care who drops as it's not gonna be us.

Robbored Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 I'd like City to beat Brum, Blackburn to win at Griffin Park although that's unlikely and Ipswich to lose to Forest. That would send the Brummies down - sweet revenge for when they sent us down........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

22A Posted May 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 I'll happily see Forest relegated. Remember 2007? Their then Manager, Cauldwell, announced how City are chokers and would fail at home on the last day to Rotherham and Forest, not City would go up auto.

Bar BS3 Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 I'm amazed how many people would rather be involved in dire fixtures Vs Blackburn next season, rather than potentially much better ones against Brum & Forest. A bit of last day drama would be great, to add to the excitement, but I'd choose Blackburn to go down, all day long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fordy62 Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 City 2-0 Blues Brentford 1-1 Blackburn Ipswich 1-0 Forest I'd pay £100 for that scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonBristolian Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Ideally I'd like us to win 37-0 and take the UK record for the biggest ever win. I'd settle for any other victory though. In terms of who I'd get the most schadenfreude from being relegated I'd go 1) Birmingham 2) Forest 3) Blackburn. In terms of convenience I'd rather... 1) Blackburn 2) Birmingham 3) Forest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderingred Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 I think it would be better for us if Birmingham went down. To lose Blackburn would be to lose a team we would have a very good chance of finishing above again next season... They are on a definite downwards trajectory. Birmingham probably wouldnt be in this situation next year if they survived. Forest may be stronger under Warburton too. For the same reason I'm hoping Fleetwood come up. I'm predicting City 3-1 Birmingham Brentford 0-1 Blackburn Forest 2-0 Ipswich Wolves 0-0 Preston Villa 1-1 Brighton Newcastle 3-1 Barnsley City win and relegate the Brummies infront of 25,000 fans... Move up to 15th ahead of Forest and Wolves. Arrogant Seagulls blow the title! Perfect day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Orns Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 As long as City win, I don't care. I'd prefer for Forest to go down, then Birmingham I'll be at a Farm park in Nottingham meeting various members from the cast of Paw Patrol, so I won't even be paying any attention to it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
