JoeAman08 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 We are now mathematically the only team not in the bottom 3 that can still be relegated. Yay. Not a dig at the team. While they were quite flat in the second half, it was always going to be tough to beat Derby. Shows the hole we dug ourselves up until January that we've played so well since and still can't pull away to mid table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst we may be the team most likely to be caught because of GD, as there are four other teams on 48 points, not quite true. One of those situations were the only people in the world who think we could go down, will be Bristol City fans (for reasons I do understand!).

We could quite easily finish there come end of the season, but anywhere except MK Dons current spot will do me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seen us falling didn't really notice we are level on points with 4 other teams!! Though we would definitely go down if we lost our last 3 and Dons won theirs. While others are much less likely. I don't think there is any way that can happen though. Just saying it's been quite competitive this year. We've done so well since January and can't pull clear of it with 3 games left. Realistically we can win the next 3 games. Blackburn, Huddersfield and QPR aren't exactly setting the world on fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derby are a playoff team who've spent roughly 25m on players for this season. We didn't play great but we won't be facing the same attacking force that is Derby. The next 3 are quite winnable and just one little point from any of those 3 will see us safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDOXO Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 the reality is we are the only catchable team due to the massive swing in GD it would take to catch anyone else. Typical. Right to the bloody end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinmans Love Child Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Mathematically we can lose our last 3 and still stay up, MK won't win 3 so will be irrelevant. At least it means one more game actually means something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Isewater Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 I think what really squits us up is the recent history of the Blue Few who , a tad prematurely but hilariously, celebrated their League safety without counting on the remarkable footballing skills of the superstar that is Sir Colin Daniel . Life would just be too unbearable if the worst was to happen. As for being negative , we old farts have had enough experience to know what football and City are capable of , so , no celebrations of the great escape until it's confirmed , mathematically and the League has published the Championship table .

Is that "MK won't win 3 so will be irrelevant" as in "Leicester City won't be leading the Premier league by five points with four to play"? Would you have expected the team bottom of the Premier League last season to win seven and draw one of their last nine matches? Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's likely to happen, but as someone else has said, I won't sleep easily until we are mathematically safe.

Craven arms Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 City are 250/1 for the drop, 10 pound returns £2,500.00. the bookies don't know City like we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the season MK have had, are they going to win their last 3? After the season Leicester City have had are they going to lose their last 3? The answer to both questions is no.

Gillies Downs Leeds Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 I am surprised bookies have City and Blackburn at 9/4 for the draw at the weekend what with both teams only needing a point to make them mathematically safe.. I thought it would be a lot shorter than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
