uttoxram75 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Gumps will beat Leicester tomorrow, so don't start gloating too much. Maybe, maybe not. We can relax, sit back and watch them squirm.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaffsRam Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Even if they do, they're still below us. Poor gumps - could end up beating Leicester and Burnley and still be below us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Touche. However, I see you have won despite having almost half the total shots and half the shots on target. I see you are still getting the rub of the green! We had most possession. It seems the harder we work the luckier we get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerTedd Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Gumps will beat Leicester tomorrow, so don't start gloating too much. And if they do, God bless 'em. It won't help them, but it will help us get first. **** second place, I've got my eyes on that championship trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I would have to hand it to Forest if they managed to win away at Burnley, nobody else has this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaffsRam Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Shteve's record for us; W 14 D 4 L 3 (46 points from 63) Such a better Manager than Davros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Still only had one league game (Wigan) under McClaren where we didn't score. We're also the only team in the league who haven't had a single goalless draw this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRamFan Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Touche. However, I see you have won despite having almost half the total shots and half the shots on target. I see you are still getting the rub of the green We are getting the 'rub of the green' because we are playing on the green stuff. Stats are great, gives you gumps more excuse to explain away your underachievement in the cup, you had nearly 70% of the ball and did bugger all, you're arrogant in defeat and you where judged. Now the Carl Froch fight is your plan to make enough revenue for your underachievers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knowle Rohrer Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Shteve's record for us; W 14 D 4 L 3 (46 points from 63) Such a better Manager than Davros. He has been magnificent for you. Many Forest fans were very excited about his appointment and many were glad to see the back of Davies. It was a disaster at Forest but he does have a very mixed CV and it wasn't all his fault things went so badly. It will be interesting to see how he fares if he gets some cash to spend.

Now the Carl Froch fight is your plan to make enough revenue for your underachievers Tounge in cheek, stats are often misleading as a team can huff and puff but not look like scoring. I was disappointed at our performance on Sunday even though I think a draw probably would have been the fair result. But there's no way we deserved to beat Preston in the replay so these things even themselves out. You sound a broken record constantly going on about our underachievement. Where do you think we should be in the league? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Touche. However, I see you have won despite having almost half the total shots and half the shots on target.

Knowle Rohrer Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Probably a bridge we won't need to cross..... Do you think he will keep on bringing in very talented youngsters on loan? Surely if you go up there will be sensible amounts of money to spend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaffsRam Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Do you think he will keep on bringing in very talented youngsters on loan? Surely if you go up there will be sensible amounts of money to spend? No idea. I don't think it's any great secret that our owners would likely try to sell us if we went up. That being the case I'd imagine that they wouldn't want to plough too much in. Best bet would be a quick sale during the summer. In the meantime I'd imagine we'll continue to reap the rewards of our own Academy, and a few others'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Shots from outside the box Wednesday - 61% Shots; On target 4-2 Off target 7-6 You lot read 18 shots to 9 didn't you? Stats don't tell stories, they back them up. Over 30 games in and we're still lucky. Good luck in the FA Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Where do you think we should be in the league? Above us, at the very least - whether that (theoretically) be 2nd, 5th, 14th or 23rd. tbh I think you're only underachieving a little, and in the context of us and Burnley overachieving - without us two you'd be in 3rd place, which would be about right for money spent and wages paid, and the nonsense about 'King Billy's Unfinished Business'...

Where do you think we should be in the league? You should be a lot closer to Leicester than us based on your wages and budget. So should QPR. You've both got **** managers.

StaffsRam Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Shteve went to Holland and won the title with Twente - that's like going to the SPL and beating Rangers and Celtic to the title with Raith Rovers. Harry on the other hand has at least managed to buy himself an FA Cup. Davros, has been given money to spend, most notably by Forest, and managed to win fook all except a playoff trophy which we won despite him not because of him.

Ambitious Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Forest aren't under-achieving, in my opinion. They have a budget for a top 6 side, and they're a top 6 side. No matter how much more than us they've spent, I bet their wage budget is less than Bolton's and Wigan's for instance (never mind Leicester, QPR, Blackburn and Reading...etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
