LoOkOut Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) Which is why he will probably make sure to avoid the yellow and get a clean slate in the playoffs. I just remember our game against them at their place. We really struggled to make any impression whatsoever. Anything could happen, but I think you are clutching at straws a bit hoping for a yellow to one of their players. You don't get a clean slate for the play offs it rolls through. He's a key player for them if he goes their team is much weaker imo. Edited April 16, 2017 by LoOkOut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRightSide Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Bookies agree with you. Odds for top 6 finish... Huddersfield 1/250 Reading 1/100 Leeds 1/7 (I think that means odds not to make it are hugely generous) Us 4/11 Fulham 1/1 Put everything you have on Huddersfield. They can't drop out.

Holmowl Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 I think, having conceded a late equaliser, we were inches away from conceding a second and losing. It's my thread and I will spin it any way that suits me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMOwl72 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) Big concern is that we have the worst record involving the top 7 teams playing each other which doesn't bode well for the last game v Fulham. Saving grace might be that Fulhams form away at the top 6 teams is poor (and they still travel to Udders as well). Its a straight shoot out between Leeds, Us and Fulham for 2 places which in my view will go down to the wire. Bonus for Leeds is that we play Fulham last game.

If Leeds have Billy Bonds in defence I fancy our chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Put everything you have on Huddersfield. They can't drop out. Would you risk 5 grand to win 20 quid. I wouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 You were quick - edited that more or less straight away I may be quick on the keyboard, but Billy Bonds would still outpace me over 20 yards, and he is 106. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Internationowl Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I actually hope Leeds look at their fixtures and think "yeah, nice easy run in" then come unstuck. Same with Hudders. One thing is for certain, those matches wont be the results people expect them to be. They never are in this league. So, if you're expecting the results not to go as expected, doesn't that mean your expectations won't be met? Ergo not only will the outcome of these games not go as expected, they won't end up as you expect, which is to say they will unexpectedly and inexplicably fall short of any expectations, predicted or unpredicted (as long as the unpredictability wasn't expected). NB. Please re read using the voice of Daffy Duck for maximum clarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherlyegg Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Could do with Wigan going on a bit of run, cos if they don't they will be relegated by the time leeds play em. For leeds to drop out, woods need to be out and they would have to bottle it like no bottle has bottled before....waint happen i thinks. But I was once wrong..

To me, on the dole, it might as well have been a Rolls Royce. Years later, in a new job interview, based on this dim and distant memory, I cheekily pushed for a Renault 25 and lo and behold they agreed. When it arrived it had voice instruction, which was EXACTLY like Daffy Duck, lisp and all. The best instruction, in the lispy voice of Daffy... Pathenger door not thyut. Thtop ath thoon ath pothable.

Lord Snooty Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I'd love to see a crack at L**ds. About half a mile long right under Bellend Road. Some sort of whopping great sink hole which could take the whole place down to the fiery pits of hell where they belong. Scum. Morning everybody. Late night.
