In big trouble now. The matches haven't actually finished yet and at the end of the season it will be down to what we do 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deeps Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Loads of twists and turns yet. Still in our own hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nokesy Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 The teams around us ability to take points from the ‘top’ teams once again proving why we’re dead certs to go down. We have taken 1 point all season from the top 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 In huge trouble. We're a poor team and will likely go down. I don't see us getting the points required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laughable Chimp Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) Well this was coming. Man, our next league fixtures look horrendous. I think its fair to say we're probably not gonna be out of the bottom 3 anytime soon. Edited February 29, 2020 by Laughable Chimp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam2003 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 My three-year old girl whines less than some of you lot. We have a cup final tomorrow. Why not turn it off for 24 hours and just enjoy the weekend? We have every game for the rest of the season to worry about our league position... it’s going to the wire. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted February 29, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) I can't see anything other than relegation with the team we built over the summer. Was a monumental task to get it right considering the amount of players we had to bring in. With the injuries we've sustained this season, it's only made it worse. Truth be told, we didn't buy enough players imo. Could have done with another 3 or 4. We can blame FFP all we like for restricting the amount of players we brought in, but it's our own fault for doing such a shocking job of building a team in the Championship. Tis a shame, but the Premier League isn't all that really. The main thing for me is that we lose Jack, I really wouldn't be that bothered about another season or two in the Championship if it wasn't for the fact that Jack will 100% leave if we go down. Ah well, it's just football. Edited February 29, 2020 by PieFacE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romavillan Posted February 29, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted February 29, 2020 Everyone wasn't going to lose every week were they. Die isn't cast yet chaps, despite all the usual bullshit that will be posted after we get a tanking tomorrow and are in the bottom 3, it's still quite possible we'll win 3 and draw a few and stay up. Even if we don't we are in a massively better position than we were before Edens and Sawiris took over. We'll be going down with some huge parachute payments and competent owners this time. I'd back them and Smith to bring us back up in short order and have a better go at it next time. That said, we might stay up as league cup winners for the 6th time too. So till we're mathematically relegated we're still in with a shout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, it's just football. I share all these views apart from thinking he will probably leave if we stay up as well. And while no player is bigger than the club, etc, it will be less fun watching us without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we're going to probably get smashed in the final and sit in the bottom 3.
