Bluesteel Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 It’s that wierd stage of the season. Could see us all pulling off some results and it will have been those six pointers that cost us along with the deduction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, that could be very significant. At the time the goal went in I almost laughed, it was so typical and I thought it was a game we had to win, so missing out on one point didn’t seem that big a deal. I really did think we would be down already by now, but other teams seem determined to drag this out to the bitter end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxtongent Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Let's be honest. Rovrum or no, we couldn't even beat Wycombe Wanderers, and over the season, they're the only club that have been worse than us. We don't deserve to stay up ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulcinella Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 DC relegated us with the dodgy dealing -12pts start, which caused an unbalanced summer recruitment (who’d want to join a team on -12pts), followed by a succession of managerial appointments (who’d want to stick around with a club starting on negative points, unbalanced squad and no backing in the transfer market). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthefish2002 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 The Championship is a poor league. We have been embarrassingly poor on and off the pitch this season and we still have a fighting chance of stopping up. Even our own dyed in the wool fans say we deserve to go down. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S36 OWL Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Colin has a big say in this too. His lot are at Rovvrum tonight, then play us on Saturday. Wouldn't put it past him to play a weakened team tonight to save his best players for the game on Saturday to try and send us down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big significance of concedeing the last minute goal with the Rotherham game was that it became a 3 point swing with 2 extra points to Rotherham and one less to us. If it wasn't against one of our relegation rivals it would just be the one point dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes much like qpr did, I am expecting Boro to be poor tonight and stronger on Saturday against us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Crawshaw Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 If we go down you can give many reasons why, but the fact they have won both games against us will probably be the main one. If we had done the double over them we would be 12 points ahead of them. Even 2 draws would have seen us 6 points above them They are not very good, a team of triers but no real quality. They looked tired and out of ideas against Birmingham on Sunday. Tonight's game could be their best chance of 3 points in their remaining games. I wouldn't put it past Colin trying to do them a favour and taking it easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughan Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Might be the last points Rotherham pick up tonight. Their run in is not good for them . I realise i am clinging to the slightest gossamer of hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieman Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Looking at the fixtures and current points, Rotherham are definitely the favourites to stay up, IMO. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
