AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I don't really want them to go down, but a decent relegation scare wouldn't go amiss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I don't really want them to go down, but a decent relegation scare wouldn't go amiss. They're probably the worst side in the league and certainly the least attractive but they won't go down. I still think that in the dogfight of a messy relegation battle they'd be better suited for survival than us, and I find it hard to believe that two clubs seperated by only 2 points, and still having to play each other, can have supporters with such polarised levels of optimism.

mattypnufc Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I think we should all calm down to be honest. They may have a harder run-in but were only two points above them. It could very easily be us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could very easily be us. it's why the fulham game, seemingly forgotten, is as big as those around it. 3 poiunts from that and we are safe and able to relax for the derby. don't really want to go into that game "needing" points.

SEMTEX Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Nelson Mandela admitted to hospital. Coincidence? Maybe he thought he'd be expected to goto the SoS and felt a weekend stopover at a South African hospital was preferable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I'd really hate it if they went down. Not having the derby games to look forward to would make next year so much less interesting. WTF Id rather have 2 derby games to really add some excitement into our season than have 2 meaningless games against Derby. The massive rush for tickets this morning suggests I'm not alone. Aye but surely you would be disappointed rather than "really hating it".... If they go down its party time! I wouldn't give a fuck if they got relegated for the next 5 seasons and went bust and not longer existed. cunts. I would genuinely hate it. Football is about these games and local rivalries etc and losing our only rival (probably forever as they're not coming back up) would leave a massive gap in our footballing lives. I admit I don't take the rivalry as seriously as most btw, only when it matters. It wouldn't like. I would quite happily see them relegated year after year down to the Northern League. Hate having to play them, the games are shit with little or no football played and too much at stake for my blood pressure to take. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoreboard82 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Hate the derby games. No matter if we are in better form or not. The law of averages say they have to win the occasional one. Our biggest danger this season is complacency I reckon. I'm certainly the least nervous i've been for many a derby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ste Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Doesn't matter how confident I am in the weeks leading up to a derby, come derby day I'm all nerves. Would miss derby day if they went down, like I did when they spent a few years in the Championship. Nothing else like it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 It's not like we have been convincing in any of our home games this season. Stoke were utterly dreadful but we needed a last minute goal against them to beat them. Southampton, we could afford to relax after getting a lucky og Chelsea was just a good atmosphere and players raising their game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but I don't usually get as stressed about a game v the stokes/WBAs of the league. All i'm saying is that despite the respective form of both sides, and us having the upper hand in recent years, there's always the chance of a bad result on derby day. That's why i'd rather not play them at all, but that's just me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
