James Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 If point averages of all other teams stay the same come the final game, 4 points will guarantee 3rd, 13 points guarantee promotion, and 14 points guarantee the Title. If we kept our average, we'd get 25 more points to finish on 97. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 It's ours to lose now and I don't think this league has two teams who are good enough to go above us or enough good teams to stop us getting the points that we need to even have to worry about others.

Ketsbaia Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 that forest goal slightly dampens the celebrations, might have to wait a bit longer. but the next 2 matchdays could decide it methinks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Dont lose against Forest, and its just about done. Forest will have to play much better than they have been to beat us at SJP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Nine points plus a far superior goal difference over third place now, and with a game in hand too. It would be nice to win the league but going up is all that matters and we'd have to self-destruct in a manner unknown even to NUFC to screw it up from here.

Stifler Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 It would be great to win the league, but lets just focus on the promotion bit at the moment and if we are in with a chance of winning the league when we have garunteed promotion we can then focus on winning it.

oldtype Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 With our luck, I fully expect Ashley to bring in an unknown Uruguayan center-back on emergency loan tomorrow and Hughton to get so offended by it that he walks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Think this was probably the last game this season I thought we might lose, so picking up a point coupled with Forest's defeat and general form makes it pretty much a cert for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I'll be quite dissapointed if we don't win the league. Being at top for so long and throwing it away would be quite hard to swallow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughton wouldn't walk, he'd play him on the wing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 This time next week things will be a lot clearer, because as soon as the gap with Forest gets to double figures its virtually over. I'm only nervous about Bristol City and Doncaster now, so you'd think we'd do it. Should beat Scunny. These next 2 matchdays will be important.

Guest Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Basically, 7 wins out of 11 guarantees it no matter what Forest do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I must admit, after leading for so long I really want to go up as Champions. I want to see that trophy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 We were one goal away from going up this afternoon. Had we got a late winner then we'd have been virtually up imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With our goal difference situation, Forest would have needed 4 wins more than us whether we'd won or drawn today. 11 points would have been massive though. I must be the only one who doesn't give a shit about winning the league. Seeing the likes of Smith, Butt and Nolan parading the trophy around the ground at the last home game would be a bit wierd seeing as they were the ones who took us down in the first place. They would be righting a wrong but it wouldn't be anything to get carried away with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious question - If we didn't go up this season but we managed to do it next year (or two years down the line) and Smith, Butt and Nolan were parading the trophy around the ground, would you still feel that it was weird to celebrate? Fingers crossed, I would absolutely love to see the club celebrate going up as champions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
