thunderball Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Yet again it's just pure luck that others have a tougher run in than us, because we are as poor as any team in the league. If it wasn't for the lucky win against Arsenal on the opening day, we would be right in it, and that's not to say we might not win until the end of the season - let's face it, no one in their right mind would bet against us losing next game? The home losses this season are nothing but a humiliation. Doug wouldn't stand for it, neither should we. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much (although I really am tired of hearing people say "Doug wouldn't stand for it"), but there have been discussions on here in the past where people try and pretend that Ellis was some sort of good owner.

Rugeley Villa Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 We only need one of those bottom 3 to go on a run and Norwich to get a few points and we could be in trouble. that's what plays on my mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Real struggle to see us getting many more points. Relegation is a real concern, need a win and quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 We were clear favourites to win today according to the bookies. And against Sheffield, and Millwall, and Bradford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amo69 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 40/1 to be relegated suggests otherwise Actually worth a punt. You will only really know how bad we are without key players if you watch us week in week out. However we should have done enough already to stay up.

lmarsha_926 Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 (edited) 19 points in 11 games against the current bottom 6 Edited April 5, 2014 by lmarsha_926 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterfingers Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I wouldn't advise anyone to put money on us being relegated. I'd wager this unique season will see 34 points being enough. Cardiff need 9 points out of the next 6 games to match us & I can't see that happening. We've lost 3 on the trot, we won't loose 9 on the trot which means we'll get points from somewhere anyway. More concerning is the fact that we will end up with less points than last season-Hardly progress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I think we will get another 4 or 5 points which should do us but we are capable of only getting as low as 2 points which would send us down imo 2 more points would easily keep us up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 You think so. Were very lucky the bottom teams are so poor otherwise we would be guaranteed to be going down. 2 points could do it but it only takes the teams below to pick a few points up. Absolute terrible season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabby Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 IMO we are depending on 3 clubs continuing to get no results because we sure as hell are not likely to get many more points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on. 4th year in a row we're talking about relegation albeit unlikely but more worrying is that we'll possibly end up with fewer points than last season. Unacceptable. Well done Lerner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliffy Biro Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Its only a matter of time before it catches up to you, 1 more season with the brilliant lerner/lambert duo should do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
