N0rtherner Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Best start preparing for League One, 8 points adrift of Derby right now and worse gd and not going to catch up to that with 15 points left. Nothing in how we play suggest we'll miraculously win even 4 of those 5 remaining games. Forget about mathematical probability, face the reality of how poo and wobbly we have been all season, we're down. Irrespective of how tonight's game played out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s low odds for sure but why give up before it’s confirmed when we just need a couple of rounds of fixtures to go the right way Sorry for my flippant post mate it's just that (as I posted on another thread) if I had a quid for every time I have heard 'we need to win the next 2' recently.... It never happens, because we aren't good enough to win 2 in a row and the players don't want it enough. Incredible to think that, but they don't, as most are out of the door in a few weeks. Cardiff was THE platform to go on a run and give us a decent chance in the last few games, and instead we go and fold abysmally against a team with nothing to play for, and then looked insipid against a team that has barely won a game lately.

It’s what we do This 100% We'd probably go 2-0 up on that final day too... then collapse like a withered old ball sack.

Only the greatest optimist believed we were "relying" on anyone this evening. We were down before tonight. We've been down for longer than many cared to admit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget about mathematical probability, face the reality of how poo and wobbly we have been all season, we're down. We play Derby the last game of the season, so we need to make up 5 points in 4 games before that (I think if we did that and beat them the last day of the season we'd end up with a better goal difference anyway). Of those 4 games, we play 3 at home and 1 away; Derby play 3 away and 1 at home. So if we can somehow pick up some wins (big if, I know) it's not totally out of the question that we could go to their place still with a chance of finishing above them. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S36 OWL Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 With Derby's goal difference being so much better than ours, we are basically 9pts behind them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal difference isn't a problem. They are -16 and we are -20, but assuming we need to beat them to stay up on the last day of the season, that's at least 2 of the goals back straight away (assuming a one goal win). And also, to make up the 5 point gap that would need us to win two games while they lose one and draw one. So even if we only win 1-0 each time and they lose 1-0 and draw, that's another 3 goal swing. Or if you're assuming a draw on the final day of the season, with both teams level on points, we would have to pick up 9 points (3 wins) while they lose 2 and draw the other. So again, even assuming the narrowest margin of victory possible for each match, we would be 1 goal ahead on goal difference. Bigger problem is we are absolutely awful, don't have a manager, a left back or half the rest of a team and are incapable of winning matches. But at least the goal difference situation is promising. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this lol.. the situation is there for the taking, it could be 47 points for 21st place now. Its just that we’re not good enough to get that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jack Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 People need to accept we are down, even if the best case scenario and win the last 5, we will still go down. Its over and has been for months. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we beat Derby but lets be honest they absolutely hammered us and did everything but score. Was just one of those games where the ball wouldnt go in for them. Kind of like the opposite of us v Cardiff. It happens sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
