The other games today - 2009/10


Recommended Posts

Used to have a soft spot for Forest before this season. The epitomy of a one-man club. Brian Clough is Nottingham Forest.

 

This! Wanted Forest to come up with us up until this year. Delighted for Blackpool, even more delighted if the go up, should give take up one of the three relegation spots automatically.

High scoring games are rare but the play-off seems to find more than its share of aggregate beltas

 

1999 Bolton 4-4 Ipswich (incl 3-4 in 2nd leg aet)

2000 Bolton 5-7 Ipswich (incl 3-5 in 2nd leg aet)

2003 Forest 4-5 Sheffield United (incl 3-4 in 2nd leg)

2004 Palace 4-4 Mackems (incl 3-2 in 1st leg) - Palace win on pens (remember Jeff Whitley) HA HA

2007 Southampton 4-4 Derby (incl 3-2 in 2nd leg) - Derby win on pens

 

 

 

charlton 4 - 4 sunderland may 1998

Very hard to take for the Forest supporters if you ask me. They were 2nd for much of the season and won't get promoted now. Unfair but that's football.

 

Nope, two best teams go up and the next 4 battle it out for the playoffs. Perfectly fair.

 

Forest :lol:

If Blackpool go up surely they're nailed on to finish 20th next season.

 

Aye. They'll be spectactularly bummed which is great for us.

 

Apart from the fact they'll no doubt beat us at their place and snatch a 0-0 up here. :lol:

Just out of interest, if Blackpool do come up, who on earth is going to join them? Who could they afford?

 

Forest being out is the best thing for us, only ones I could see putting up a fight. Cardiff are broke and Leicester have nowhere near the quality required.

 

:thup: i'd feel pretty confident of finishing above one of those 3.

The novelty of Blackpool will quickly wear off next season if they get up, when it becomes clear that they are Burnley x10 in shitness  :lol:

 

It will wear off even quicker if they actually start the season well.

 

See Hull City.

 

Struggled and just avoided relegation the season before they finished 6th and were promoted.

I thought they were being a bit harsh on Forest on the TV. That second Blackpool equaliser was a fluke and turned out to be the turning point. Things can turn on bits of luck and it went against Forest tonight.

 

Still, I've thought that Blackpool could be the dark horses for a while now. They're a very relaxed side and they have a fair bit of skill.
