Win at Ewood would keep us up! On the other hand we could be 2 points away from safety!! Defining week that will say a lot about LJ and his players. Who would have thought we could stay up with 3 games to go, quite feasible and we need to make sure we are up for it! An air of complacency on here that is not warranted. Take your scenario above and reverse this Friday's results. Blackburn to win at Florest and we get mugged by "he who doesn't like us". We are then One point ahead of Blackburn and with our away form, we are not even sure of a point at Ewood Park on Monday. Leaves us sweating on good results at home against Barnsley, who won't need a team talk from their manager that day, and Birmingham who wouldn't do it to us again, would they? I now think we'll be safe but it won't be quite as easy as some on here believe. "Always believe that if Bristol City can.............................!

Malago Posted April 10, 2017 Report Share Posted April 10, 2017 Personally I can't see Blackburn getting more than 5 points from their remaining games, so with our superior goal difference a single draw should be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same goal difference, just two more wins. There is a bigger gap between us and Wigan, than us and QPR. Which makes us two wins shy of being "no mugs" then! Yes but they were not saddled with an inexperienced manager and a terrible owner! I bet the QPR fans are renewing their season tickets! They think that Freeman will be their top scorer next season!

For me, not playing them in the league is my biggest driver for staying up. If they were still in Div 4 or worse, I honestly don't think it would seem as bad!

For what its worth i don't get any satisfaction out it and i never join in the 'going down' chants. Being relegated is horrible, and the fans of said team know it. There's no hiding from it and all of us have been through it. It strikes me as just too mercenary,a bit like chant 'going bust' at a club, i just don't like it. Seem to remember , I think we were on our way to relegation and were away to Millwall. Pretty much everyone sang 'going bust' to those cheery lads to rub in their money troubles.

Sheff Weds fans on street celebrating as much as we were !!! Not for all of us. We had our coach turned back at the turnstile by the OB, they asked someone on the front of the coach if we'd stopped in a pub (we had for directions and we had a swift) so they sent us home with an escort to the MWay. Not only that when we stopped at Cov on the way back they turned up within minutes. Must have had lookouts on the motorway all the way back !!

That is really outrageous treatment of innocent citizens. One of the stranger things I remember about this match was that the Blades fans all seemed to arrive at the same time about three minutes to kick off.

We often seemed to lose to Notts County . In fairness they are a shadow of themselves these days but they had à spell in the First division and were also managed by our old friend Colin . We have often been a soft touch . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
