The odds are on us staying up Id much rather be in our position than Rotherham or Wednesday Definitely rather be in our position, particularly as we haven't been able to even pick up a point in the last six.

Tyler Durden Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 What blind faith are you basing your optimism on? This manager and bunch of players have had more than enough chances to avoid this scenario yet they've been capitulating week after week and suddenly right at the last possible moment the manager is going to galvanise them into doing what he should have been getting his team to do weeks ago? And even then that might not be enough dependant on other results. Morris missed a trick by not removing Rooney when he had chance, very ironic really given his predisposition for bulleting managers randomly, when he does have the chance to do this with Rooney he doesn't.

Or score a goal in the 94th minute to win but Rotherham having won on Tuesday score a 95 minute goal to stay up! jono 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abu Derby Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 We are the last team in the British Isles that you would bet upon staying up. We have no fight, no spirit for a fight and have a very poor team. Rotherham, yes Rotherham - the team we are banking on to do us a favour - have taken 6 points off us this season. Wednesday have already beat us at their place. We couldn’t get anything from Coventry or Birmingham when we needed to and even Wycombe got a draw here. As someone else has alluded to, if Wednesday score first then it’s game over.

GboroRam Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Statistics say we'll stay up. Form says we're going down. The reality is we've a game against another really poor side that we must take something from, and rely on a third really poor team to not pull a rabbit out of a hat. It's almost impossible to call. r_wilcockson, Rammy03, jono and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mckram Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 I just don’t see how we stay up. Wednesday have absolutely nothing to lose, they’re currently down, on Saturday they probably thought they were down for a while. A draw isn’t good enough for them, they’ll go all out. I think Rooney will set up for the draw and there’s no chance we won’t concede. So as soon as they score he will have no game plan.

Rammy03 Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 I've always been one of the people that said we'll be fine. I've been confident all season that we'll be safe by the end. I was wrong. But let's get it right, this has been nothing more than a total capitulation from our team. 6 losses in a row is just embarrassing. 3 games squandered from winning positions. Chance after chance after chance to pull away and we just can't do it. How on earth have we blown this? We have one more game to save ourselves. Even I'm not confident anymore. Do we really have it in us to go out there and win? Even a point could do it. On paper of course we can do it, we should be able to but for some reason we just can't. We go in front, we can't hold on. Go behind, we can't come back. It just feels like we're doomed. Wednesday are also an awful team with no fight. It's anyone's game on Saturday. Even Rotherham could send us both down. I just can't call it. We're still in the best position though and I'll be nervously cheering them on come Saturday. COYR.

Please Curtains this isn't the time for prevarication if you think that getting relegated to League 1 will be a positive move financially or otherwise then we live on different planets.
