The other games today - 2011/12


Recommended Posts

If you want some free money, get it on us to go down.

 

After tonight, I am utterly convinced. There's no point hiding it or trying to tough it out, if there were any justice in football, we would be relegated, we totally, totally deserve it.

 

I've also never witnessed a club where the fans were so utterly disconnected from every single level of the management of the club - and I say this having supported us through over 30 years of Doug Ellis.

 

:lol:

 

I've been waiting patiently for about 20 minutes to see the last poster in this thread being brummie.  Knew it would be gold.

 

The loudest chanting I've heard all season was tonight, it was five minutes from the end, "Fuck McLeish M'Lord, fuck McLeish" and "Fuck off McLeish, the Villa is ours".

 

Although not as funnily poignant as Saturday against Sunderland as they alternated "Martin, you're a twat" with "Alex, you're a twat".

I am honestly aghast that there are Newcastle fans who enjoyed watching that and were even close to being in two minds about it. Really completely and utterly puzzled.

 

What's so difficult to understand that the best scenario for us is for Chelsea to have one extra match in the run, get distracted with the CL final and then lose in the finals (which is likely given how many of their key players will be out)? Support Barcelona all you want but don't insult others as not supporting our team just because they have a different view

on the best scenario for NUFC

 

There is absolutely no way this is the best possible scenario for NUFC.

 

Jesus Christ.

 

And why not? You're talking as if we've got 4th spot sewn up. We have some tough fixtures coming up and there is no way we will win them all. We'll need Chelsea to screw up their league games too and the best way for this to happen is for them to have a congested fixture list with their mind distracted on the CL final.

 

The best scenario for us is for the above to happen and then of course for them to fuck up the CL finals. Unless you can given reasons otherwise, you're just talking rubbish

Just makes the CL final even more important. 100% want real to go through and destroy Chelsea, Cronaldo in particular, and I think it will happen. I also think we won't finish 4th, but that prospect has come closer with us playing Chelsea totally occupied with cup finals. It's not as bad as the drama queens are trying to make out, if you want it back in our hands, win all our remaining games, we will finish 3rd not 4th, arsenal will fuk up at leas one of their remaining games.

 

Anyway, let's beat Wigan first, tough game, before being as devastated as you've been all season. Christ man  :lol:

hmm.  Black Country Baggies away, North London White at home and Norfolk Yellow away.  Not the easiest of run-ins!

 

I honestly am thinking of putting a few quid on us scoring zero goals between now and the end of the season.

Highlight of the season, man. We've all been wanting Spanish style GOL GOL GOL GOOOOOL! stuff for years.

Love reading Brummies posts at the minute, great to see Villa floundering and falling.

 

Not sure I can see Bolton/Blackburn picking up more than 4pts more though to overtake them.

 

On the plus side for their fans they've 22 clubs that they can sign their 'Have you ever won a European Cup?' song too. Enjoy.

Puts on tin hat.

 

Surely, the very best result for us would  be finish third and see Chelsea win the thing.  Missing out on Champions League football would really hurt both Arsenal and Spurs. (Chelsea, on the other hand, can just spend their way back in.)

 

That said, the risk is too great. Hope Real Madrid or Bayern crush them in the final. (Can't believe I'm going be rooting for Real Madrid over the next couple of weeks.) No way Mourinho loses to Chelsea. So, I'm behind them 100%. First Liverpool, now Real Madrid. Feels icky.

Villa will stay up by the skin of their teeth, they'll get a point out of their remaining games which will probably be enough.

if bolton get 4 points from 4 games villa will go as i can;t see villa getting another point (wigan have yet to play wolves so i think they'll stay up)

You are aware by them reaching the CL final their fixture list is no more congested than it would be by not reaching it in terms of games during the league season? CL final is a week after the final PL game.

 

Can see where you're coming from though.

Think they'll just about survive. Though I think that's more the mentality of "it'd be funny if they went down, so it won't happen."

Xavi (169) has made 24 more passes than the whole team of Chelsea (145) during tonight's game #fcblive #ucl

 

Still lost.  :iamatwat:

We're 4 points ahead of Chelsea with 4th place in our own hands.

 

Chelsea being in the final has completely taken it out of our own hands. We won't even be able to celebrate finishing 4th if it happened FFS. How can people try to skew this to be positive is completely beyond me.

 

Ya coz there's no way for Chelsea to beat us at home or Man City whose still going for the title to beat us or for Wigan who is fighting off relegation and who just recently beat Man Utd and Arsenal to beat us or fir Everton to beat us at home. There's just no way for Chelsea to catch up with us. Yeah right, you're living in cuckoo land. And for the record it's not out of our hands, not unless a severely understrengthed Chelsea (they won't have a recognized CB for fuck sake) beat Bayern or Madrid in the final which is a big ask.
