Their form says no, but it’s football, and it’s been that kinda season... I'm not sure that they will! They might. Considering that they cannot do anything about Rotherham's result, their most achievable route to survival will be nicking a win against us. And, if that comes from scrapping, then I agree with you. But, if another approach would bring them a better chance of nicking a win, then they might go for that too. I hate the thought of it, but I don't think that it would be impossible for the managers to try to change Derby's (and Sheffield's) tactics mid-game if Rotherham were to go a couple ahead or behind!

Most don't want to see Rooney here but I don't see anyone willing us to go down. You seem incapable of distinguishing between the two. I was chastised for saying something similar immediately after a game. I think it’s how we perceive some comments and especially directly after a defeat when we are all hurting. If we were all sat in a pub we’d be able to show our reaction and not have to rely on how our comments are read. I think I made sense there but I’ve had another bottle ......

But I would be very sad that I was wrong unlike some who would be delighted to be right I am sorry Curtains that is totally uncalled for and out of line.

Ramley Apple Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) Good result. Rotherham are beyond poo; there's no way they're getting three points from Cardiff. So survival is in our hands. Earn at least a draw against an almost-as-poo Wednesday side and it's job done. Edited May 4, 2021 by Ramley Apple Curtains 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mucker1884 Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 On Saturday, almost immediately after the defeat to Swansea, I predicted a bottle job for our final game. I predicted failure. I predicted relegation. I predicted shame, humiliation, dejection, and despair. That was Saturday. But with 3/7ths of this week now passed, I'm beginning to feel a tiny throb of hope. Not expectation, just hope. And it really is just a tiny throb, but a throb all the same! Give it a few more days, and I might just be up for this, after all!

I think we could go out of business first though But then all our debts would be written off, and with our large fan base, we would soar like a phoenix to dizzying heights - rams carried aloft in its talons - dripping in blood and straining at every sinew - as we go from the foothills to the mountainous pinnacles that is deserved by the greatest football club in the world!

Just praying we can nick a couple of quick goals and put it to bed early tbh. Indeed.

You're giving yourself an odds-on chance of losing a baalock. [Feel free to edit the last word if it might be thought likely to offend the ear.] It's an amazing show of commitment though. Perhaps it could become a regular half-time feature, with fans being prepared to offer up a testical in thanks to the god of balls, after each victory! I have always had a gut feeling that fans simply do not do enough! (Maybe the players would like to do the same whenever they lose?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I now think the post refers to the possibility of Wendies staying up (with a victory over us), and how Rotherham can still influence their destiny, which makes my entire ramblings in this matter moot, null, void, and utterly irrelevant!
