Woodley Ram Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 This game has draw written all over it, in a lot of ways 2 similar clubs in size and history both with an inability to get themselves out of trouble. I still think Rotherham might put us both out of our misery . maybe we should become Icarus Wednesday and Icarus county Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4derby Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 ‘This is the biggest game in our recent history.’ I get it, but people have been saying this for the past 5 games. They’re all big. A win in any of the past 6 games would have seen us safe. We’ve failed every one. Saying it’s big doesn’t change the fact that we look poor and unable to be better for 90 mins. The players need to hold their nerve and get some luck. We will get what we deserve from the game. ‘Lawrence is the saviour/he’s a waste of space and only plays because Wayne thinks he’s undroppable.’ 2 viewpoints, weeks apart. 2 weeks before he returned, there were many fans saying that Tom would be a big plus when he’s in team and get us more goals. He has done, including 2 with his head. Now many are questioning why he’s in the squad. He’s a player who can score and play well when he has confidence. We’re low on that at the min. Admittedly, I’m already in the final stage of grief - acceptance, about the whole season and our fate. If we go down, we’re in for a rocky ride but many of us will still be there, with hope and expectation of better days ahead. And if we stay up, then we have a chance at a better season. The same as 21 other clubs next year (apart from the obvious advantage of the 3 relegated Premier teams and their money) dcfc4ever, SillyBilly, eccles the ram and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thekingofbuxton Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Just thinking about Jack Marriott this morning, is it possible to recall him and play him in this match? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May Contain Nuts Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 (edited) Our last 10: 1 win, 1 draw, 8 defeats. Scored 8, conceded 17 Their last 10: 3 wins, 3 draws, 4 defeats. Scored 12 (including a 5-0 win against Cardiff), conceded 13 I can't help but feel that we don't stand a chance.

Van der MoodHoover Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 We stand a chance of course. But on a continuation of current trajectories we will not be likely to make it. So what can Wayne, Liam, shay and the other one conjure up to shift the momentum? On the lash until Thursday and then one last practice of zonal marking Friday perhaps?

Robert Earnshaws Workrate Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 We'll get at least a draw and stay up. Based purely on Wednesday being slightly more sheet than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in worse form than any other team with 6 straight losses and 13 (or 14 now??) games since a win. They are measureably less sheet than us!

SaintRam Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 (edited) The permutations have probably been listed earlier in the thread but just to check if what I think is correct, We stay up with a win, unless Rotherham win both of their last 2 games, in which case we're down (unless we win by 12+ goals). We stay up with a draw unless Rotherham get 4 points from their last 2 games. We go down with a loss, but whether its Sheffield Wed or Rotherham who stay up depends on Rotherham's result. So its clean draw or win territory if Rotherham lose to Luton. Definitely wouldn't want to be a team on huge losing streak, that's for sure.

On paper Sheff Wed's have much the better team and if only for their points deduction the roles would be reversed. With us needing the win to survive. If going down means our club continues to exist with a rich chairman and no Rooney I do not think that is a bad thing. Big ifs though all round. Hope it’s indoors otherwise you’ll be watching the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
