Stu Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 We'll stay up but I'll not exactly crack open the champagne. If it wasnt for Europa, this season would be a complete embarassment. Cant wait for August! bang on the fucking money, mind you as Stu rightly points out we've not been quite so embarrassing in the papers for a while so i suppose that sort of balances out how fucking abysmal pardiola has been from the first minute of the season eh? we should be thankful The 'embarrassment' of not being in the top 10 when missing your best players for most of the season. This is almost on a par with Wullie's 'shameful' effort above. I just don't get how you can be so arrogant about NUFC in the Premier League, or so taken by the 'potential' of our players (despite them seemingly not performing near top level for the last 7 months).

afar Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I'm confident we can beat Fulham and Sunderland at home in April which should see us home. Fulham have proved to be a bit of a bogey team for us over the years and have been getting the odd good result here and there, just beat Spuds at their place, this weekend. We play the mackems right after a trip to Benfica, it will be a tough game and they'll obviously be up for it. I'm not as convinced about that.

Jack Flash Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I just don't get how you can be so arrogant about NUFC in the Premier League, or so taken by the 'potential' of our players (despite them seemingly not performing near top level for the last 7 months). 13 games left, realistically think we can expect to pick up points in all of them - maybe Citeh away is one game that could be a stretch too far but with the new boys in the squad, I genuinely don't see why they should fear anyone. Not outside the realms of possibility that we can pick up another 25-30points. All depends if we decide to cut loose in the league and go for the wins (not got a lot to lose) and focus on the Europa league adventure. 52/55pts good enough for top 6?

Aye we just won 6 out of our last 10 in all comps with only 2 defeats before yesterday but now we are incapable of getting a couple of wins before the end of the season Amazing what one defeat does to people, i hope the players are not as negative as some of you lot.

Especially when you consider the nature of the defeat as well. People on here are making out as if we were absolutely abysmal yesterday, which is simply not the case. Everything went against us yesterday though, absolutely fucking everything, and it won't be like that on a consistent basis the rest of the season. We're going to pick up about around ten points (which is about or average points per game this season) and finish around where we are now in the table.
