Most are more balanced. I have said this before 'in our own hands' is a mathematical statement, the subjective assessment may and often is quite different. Not sure you should be digging at fellow fans that don't want to confront reality yet, I fear they may not be able to avoid it IDC We played much better last night and if they had won nobody could possibly say we nicked it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shouldn’t assume we’ll come straight back but we shouldn’t assume we’ll be down there for years either. But we are not down yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hintonsboots Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 I’m trying to stay optimistic. I can see us getting 2 or 3 wins in the last four games. Particularly fancy Swansea away, as they will have cemented their play off place by then, and won’t want any unnecessary injuries going into the semi. Rotherham v Boro worries me, for obvious reasons ?. The team need to give everything though, to break away from the League 1 tractor beam. “ I canna give it anymore captain”, is what I expect from Shinnie and co. Let’s win it in midfield...COYR.

Also mate if we did go down every team in that division would treat playing us like a cup final. Why should you be so arrogant to presume we would be favourites?

Well we need to see who owns the club, Morris or Erik the Spaniard, plus we don't know how much we can trust him at present. We don't know what investment will come into the club to buy players. Or is it a carry on of been skint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should you be so arrogant to presume we would be favourites? I don’t think it’s being arrogant and he said “one of the favourites” not “the favourite”. Rightly or wrongly, I suspect every relatively big club that gets relegated to league one for the first time in ages automatically gets seen as one of the favourites for promotion. I wouldn’t be surprised if Sunderland were. As I said in an earlier post, unless we get a big points deduction (I really don’t think we will), I see us suffering a number of years as mid table mediocrity.

Ramarena Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 At least we are in a position where we control the outcome still. That said our form is pretty much the worst it’s been all season. Can we turn it around? We have to hope we can, but you can’t deny it looks bleak! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is “we control the outcome” another way of saying it’s in our hands which it clearly isn’t. Yes we’re still in the fight and we could escape but I’m not sure that I would say we’re in a position to control the outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
