I've enjoyed this season more than the last 5 in the top flight. I'm happy for another season in this league winning every week. I get the money side of things though.

Sam3773 Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 If we went up this season, with the odds completely against us, it would be an amazing story of recovery. If we don't, great. It all honesty, with the past 6 games I've got used to winning ways. Feels a little bit O'Neil-esque. Unless we are ready to go up and win a few, I'm not sure I'd like us to go up this season. Spoiler Of course I would. Let's win the last 8 games, go up as Play off winners, boss the PL. Europe. Done. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) Its not going to happen guys. Close this thread to avoid disapointment for anybody that really believes it can be done. Next season we 100% go up. Edited March 18, 2017 by Vive_La_Villa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dappadan Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Probably be a couple of wins short but...... In the last 6 games we have gained 15 points and Wednesday have gained 4 points. We could arguably have gained another 3 against Huddersfield. Same happens again and we catch Wednesday with 2 games left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastie Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Top 8 is achievable and considering we were 22nd when we kicked off under Bruce that would be a decent position . If only we'd held onto 2 or 3 of those leads we would have been right in the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante_Lockhart Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 As long as we do our bit and win the games I can't ask for more than that. If we finish the season strong and we've done our best then it bodes well for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastie Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 At least we've laid to bed the 2 always wins in 18 months - is that 4 now or 5 under Bruce? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) We're going to be excruciatingly close with the knowledge that if either chucking points away under RDM or the 9 games in January/February didnt happen we'd have been comfortably in the playoffs. It'lI benefit us in the longer run as its another 12 months for this squad to gel, which will see us in good stead after we have walked this league next year. The very fact we'll probably end up single figures adrift despite winning one game in almost half a season (1 in 11 under RDM + 0 in 9 under Bruce = 1 in 20!!) tells me that this league is there for the taking next year Edited March 18, 2017 by StewieGriffin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OutByEaster? Posted March 18, 2017 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted March 18, 2017 Incidentally, 51 points is our highest 38 game total since 2010. Now obviously those are different leagues and so on, but I think it's worth noting that from an enjoyment point of view, as a supporter, it should have felt like a lot more fun than the last six years; I'm not quite sure it has, and I'm not quite sure what point I'm making but......erm. Oh and it's also exactly three times the amount of points we got last season in 38 games. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I suspect we'll end up 3 or 4 points short and over a bloody long season that's naff all and it'll probably hurt more than if we we in the bottom half. I know people say it's too soon to go up but I believe that if/when we go up Dr_T will back the manager with premier league quality players. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
