I've got Leeds getting another 5points and Burnley another 6. Predicated on a draw with us. With Everton having Brentford and Palace at home and Watford away, could be as tight as gnats chuff. Could be a delicate balancing act that last game, losing and sending Everton down one minute, then a goal for them could mean were losing and sending Leeds down, would just as soon win the game if that's the case.

Its like weve got a world cup round the corner and a squad to decide on from quite a big pool of players. ASM is getting the friendly time but he's not doing a Gazza against Czechoslovakia and making it impossible not to select him. Quite the opposite.

Two wins needed. unnamed responses: 1) Can easily make a case for them not beating any of those teams either. They have won 4 all season, have picked up 3 out of the last 15 and let's be fair they were very lucky to have beaten Everton midweek also. 2) Honestly Burnley are a dark horse for a Europa Conference League spot.

The only thing unfounded about it was that Ashley wasn't genuinely interested in selling as the next 11years showed. Had his bluff called on selling then disappeared.

Anybody got the Oxford game highlights from that promotion season? Was on youtube but was taken down before I illegally downloaded it. Is kind of a forgotten after and before the lord Mayors show game and I think the season videos has music over it. Was straight round the shops the day after that Sheffield Wed game to get Mathie 14 on the blue shirt. Great night.

Weddings, wrestling and holidays apparently.

Bluto Samuel had his weekly dig today. Shamelessly alongside his weekly defence of all things Manchester City. It was a regime he was a shill of that sold the club to PIF and his propping up the last regime with Bishops bullshit so we couldn't get rid until a group of this magnitude came along helped create the situation. Fat vain attempt as assuaging his guilt bitter shill shit journalist mail cunt

Fair play to the lino, he couldn't get his flag up quick enough in that clip. None of this waiting for the beeper or a stoppage in play or an actual offence poppycock

Strange position for a club bigger than Spurs to be in. Based on highest one-off gate and more titles and ignoring everything else. Have that Levy.

No. Only similarly minded players as Bruce looking for a skive and effectively having given up on their development would want to work with him again.

I wondered given the only parameter they have over us in the 'bigger club' debate is more league titles how they come to their conclusion. I must admit I never factored in which club had the biggest one off attendance and had the biggest away win as gage on account of both Sheffield clubs having much higher highest gates than Liverpool not being reflective in the slighest of their respective status. Just seems a bit particular and selective compared to things like recognising the existence of the FA Cup and Europe, major trophies won, minor trophies won, 3rd division participation and not, 50x more games in Europe, total domination of attendance figures, profile, record transfers an current status.

If we lose these next two with a 4-0 aggregate I'll take it. Though it doesn't really matter like the Spurs game in the overall trajectory it stays on the permanent record. Don't know how I feel about them now. There's good (the YNWA Ronaldo chant) and bad (smashing up coaches). Klopp is perfect for them, half likable and charming gobshite half drug fuelled too much with a hint of prickish arrogance.

The hiring process for Bruce without joking would have been basically like Blackadder the third recruiting an MP requiring "someone over whom we have complete control. A man with no mind, with no ideas of his own. One might almost say a man with no brain." Charnley presents Bruce to Ashley.

Especilly as Jordan as a detractor of NUFC has previously been pedestalled by them along with the stellar likes of Curtis Woodhouse (me neither).

I could be okay with English sides doing well in Europe when the PL wasn't by far the richest league. Now its like wanting a rich c*nt to beat someone less rich and less of a c*nt

Hidden gem of game. Villa were the best team I felt we'd played, probably the only team that had been better than us at home that season, until Bracewell's goal.

Not sure now but it used to happen quite frequently. Middlesbrough, Sheffield United, Notts County and nearly Cambridge pretty much back to back 87-92 went from D3 to D1. In that time Wolves, Southend, Cambridge, Grimsby and Peterborough went from D4 to D2, Darlington from non-league to D3 in back to back seasons. Think the money counters momentum more nowadays.

Radio commentators making out the temperature is exceptional one way or the other when its almost always clement and been experienced thousands of times by the listeners without fuss.

Another proud season of not being able to get out of division 3 without the play-offs.

Not had a shot on goal yet according to flashscore. Its written.

Can't see them not getting in the play-offs, squirming will have to do. Have a feel Sheffield Wed are a bit cursed for things not working out for them. Portsmouth last day, tricky.

Not at this stage. Group stage is terminable though.

Coped perfectly well without it during the Keegan era and most of the Sir Bobby one. You move on and get new rivalries that matter instead of local disputes. Really the derby's have only mattered a lot when we've been bad so sod them for me.

Think they'll get another last minute goal and everything'll be tight as owt going into the last games. The last game aside they've played s**t in all those games I gather. Sheff Wed were all over Fleetwood last I checked will probably get mugged off too.

Wonder if he'll gloat about finishing 13th this season, if he can scrape it.
