Mr Popodopolous Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 (edited) Would be funny if Birmingham went down due to the whole USA USA crowing back in August, their grand new project, begging for more away tickets not least to AG while limiting away sides to 2k etc. I'm kinda leaning towards hoping they drop, was quite hopeful on Stoke too but it feels like their turn really.

We had the opportunity to send them down in 2017 of course.. Great chance to get back for 2013 and 1999, although the latter wasn't mathematical confirmation. Oh we had lots of possession but 0 Shots on Target, biggish crowd for us at that time..a draw would've done it on GD the way results played out. Annoyingly our first Home loss since mid to late February, just a draw would've done it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been one or two on here that suggested we kinda did it for Cotts (he was Assistant Manager there at that point). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CiderJar Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 (edited) 3 hours ago, Leabrook said: Is there still panic that we will go down and if not why not as surely one win shouldn’t change someone’s view But it is one win where others not only lost points but have fewer games to make up the deficit. So one win makes a bigger difference than just the three points. It is all in context. This is why I feel we are safe. As much as things could go wrong for us, there are a lot of teams for which things have to go very right for your nightmare scenario. Look at it another way, who is currently 9 points above us and how likely do you feel it is that we will catch them before the end of the season? And, if we do catch them, how likely is it that we will be in the position in the table that they currently occupy?

Numero Uno Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 11 hours ago, Leabrook said: Is there still panic that we will go down and if not why not as surely one win shouldn’t change someone’s view The key was always the number of teams below us. The chances of them all making up points are remote and would need us to lose almost every game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted March 31 Report Share Posted March 31 (edited) Appointing Rowett probably will keep them up but 3 (4 post Mowbray health), the crowing of their fans perse, the USA USA chants in August. If a club deserve relegation it is probably Birmingham this year. Obviously Rotherham too for being awful since November. They play Huddersfield away penultimate game that could be a decider for both. Edited March 31 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
