Br 1st ol Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 A Scunny win: to kill off forest, and leave us clear in second?A Forest Win: to give us a chance of catching Scunny, but putting Forest in a good positionA Draw: no good for either team, assuming we win?I guess a draw is the answer?

Guest Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 While there is nothing wrong with being selfish and wanting to the win the title - for me I'll be over the moon if we finish 2nd and NOT 3rd.So therefore its Scunny all the way for me.

bcfcchris2016 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 S****horpe win for me chaps, I Just can't see S****horpe slipping at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilksi Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Forest win.. I reckon we can win the league but we need forest to beat scunny so they start feeling the pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke_Ciderhead Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 The main thing for us is winning promotion from this division, not winning the title which will be just a bonus.I'd snap your hand off if offered 2nd place now, and the more help we get from other teams the better.Comeon Scunny.

everreddy Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Best outcome? A nasty, aggressive battle on the pitch, with all key players from both sides injured and out for the season, provoking a pitch invasion by fans with match abandoned and Scunny deducted 10 points for failing to control their fans!!!

Jarrett81 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Personally reckon anything but forest winning would be a great result providing we keep winning. A draw would pull Scunny back in and not be a great result for forest having lost last night. Least its in our hands at the moment and for once we're not playing catch up. Get a result tonight then 2 home games coming up, could look pretty good in a weeks time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartolona Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Think i would go for a draw, if we can win our next 3, 7 points ahead of Forest and 3 points behind Scunny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TryAgain Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Its got to be a draw. This will give us a second automatic place to play for, (1st) and it would also add another 2 point gap between us and Forest. What could be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SE23Red Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Draw.However the table could look very different in a weeks time if Forest win and we pick up maximum points:1 S****horpe 37 73 2 Bristol City 37 71 3 Nottm Forest 37 66 Who said Scunny are not catchable?

Komazawa Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Before last night I'd have said Scunny win. But now I think a draw will suit us nicely. Just so long as Forest don't win. Most importantly though, minimum 4 points from tonight and saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidercity1987 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 At the moment I still want a S****horpe win, but if we win tonight I might change my mind to wanting a draw!A Forest win would definitely be the worst result imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtyeoRed Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 A win tonight at Chesterfield, with Brentford and Bradford at home to follow, a Scunny win on Saturday, we could be 8 points clear of Forrest this time next week. SO COME ON YOU REDS LET'S DO IT!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richerella Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 A win tonight at Chesterfield, with Brentford and Bradford at home to follow, a Scunny win on Saturday, we could be 8 points clear of Forrest this time next week. SO COME ON YOU REDS LET'S DO IT!!!!!Agreed. It would be a sizeable gap.But thinking of tonights game:If we win I would like to see S****horpe lose or the match end in a draw to give us a chance of closing the gap.If we lose then I would want S****horpe to win to keep Forest behind and losing.My gut reaction is we'll win and the Forest S****horpe match will be a draw.

mcbcfc Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Scunny win, allowing us to pull as far away from forest as possible. Winning the league would be great but I don't care how we go up as long as next season were at Upton park rather than Saltergate on a cold Wednesday night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richwwtk Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 A draw would be the best result for us. Either team winning would give 3 points to teams around us, whilst a draw would only give 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary the Dogs Johnsons Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 With us still to play Forest at home, a Forest win for me would be good. Win our games in hand and the title is ours. I'll even put 50p on it :Believe: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary the Dogs Johnsons Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 If you're saying everyones forgotten about Yeovil - I'll agree with you. If they win on saturday, and Forest lose, then they'll be above Forest.But it's all about our next 3 games - get 7 points or more and we'll be up there with our destiny in our own hands.Re Scunny v Forest, a draw or Scunny win will suit us fine but I'm really not bothered about that result - it's all about what we do in the next 12 games and particularly the next 3.agreed, the next three games are massive. Win them and it sets us up nicely with Forest and Yeovil still to play. I still think Scunny could have a blip between now and the end of the season. It will take good management to keep them going until the end of the season as the dreaded complacency must be settling in up there, people are already saying the title is S****horpes and that could work in our favour. That said, we all know how City can bottle it just when we need to win. If I was Gary i'd just be taking each game at a time and not worry about everyone else.

midland red Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 printed off the remaining fixtures for all three sides, and we appear to have the hardest run in with S****horpe looking like the easiest, on present form i cannot see Scunny dropping that amount of points to allow us to catch them, so i am hoping for a S****horpe win to leave Forest deflated and dejected after two consecutive defeats.yours midland red.

The Batman Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 as far as i am concerned, as long as we get promoted i don't care where we finish, yeh, it would be nice to finish top of the league, but then Forest pull away from us a bit if they win vs scunny, i realise we have games in hand, but that don't mean that we're going to win them, so all in all, i'd rather go for a S****horpe win, that way Forest don't get any added points.

Chivs Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Up until now I've thought a draw is the best result but I've thought it through a bit more.What I want, really, really want is for S****horpe and Forest to lose all their remaining games except I want Forest to lose more than Scunny as this guarantees us promotion assuming we carry on winning.Therefore, I want a Scunny win on Sat and then Forest and Scunny to lose the rest of their games.I think that makes sense.

BS10 RED Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 I would prefer to go up in 1st place but ill be happy with 2nd and that looks the most realistic spot for us to get at the moment,so ill be cheering on scunny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Rollason Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 forest win, we beat nylons sat and bradford tues = 2 points behind scunny and 5 ahead of treesso ermmmmm... c'mon you reds as it were..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samo Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Whatever keeps us safely in the promotion hunt is my answer. A win for Scunny might make first place unlikely, but if it meant we were even a tiny bit closer to the ultimate goal (promotion, not the league title) then I'd be over the moon.Winning the division will not make us any less likely to drop back down next year than coming second. Just look at Southend and Colchester this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
