Davefevs Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Saw this earlier! With Sheffield Utd, QPR and Burnley out to get us. We beat Rotherham and drew with Watford. We can of course stop Rotherham we undoubted if we beat them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotherham will belt the ball into the sky and give our defenders neck ache - 0-0 Sheffield United will be firing on all cylinders to get promotion done - 0-2 Oh well, two out of three 'aint bad.

GrahamC Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Fair to also point out we’ve only played both of the top two once so far & with only 5 games left, that is a statistical anomaly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to look twice, but it’s not necessarily about matches between those clubs. No one can do the double on Burnley or Sheff U: they’ve already beaten or drawn with everyone they’ve still got to play. If Luton lose to Middlesbrough next week then they’ll lose their record - but no-one else can do the double on them now. Rotherham have still got to play Burnley, Cardiff, Wigan and us - and if they lose any of those games then their record goes! And we’ve got to get a result against both Burnley and Sheff Utd if we’re going to keep our record. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityexile Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Already outplayed Sheff Utd once this season. Just need todo it again without losing this time. We are unbeaten at home in the league in 2023. Only two games left to keep that to the end of the season…might be all roads lead to the Burnley match.

Seriously, yes, you’re right; for some reason I had it in my mind that we’d beaten them. No idea why - it must be an instinctive reaction to forget pain! But, yes, if we manage to get results against both Sheff U and Burnley, then QPR could spoil the party. And knowing City that’s exactly what will happen!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwood should have seen red for a horror challenge on Williams but didn't and they ended up scoring a clear offside goal. Ref lost complete control of the game and Tanner ended up seeing red out of frustration. No retrospective action was every taken against Norwood yet Sykes ended up getting a 4 game ban for a trip. I'm still really annoyed by that. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Open End Numb Legs Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 Is this sort of stat a compliment to the analysis and coaching teams in that they learn from the previous defeats against those teams? Might also explain the better 2nd half to the season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
