LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 The pin prick of light in the darkness has now gone up to a glimmer. Dare to dream. Another result has gone our way. We'll have to throw everything at Aston Villa and hope it's enough. At least now there's 3 teams (4 if you count Middlesbrough) shitting it on the last day of the season. Sunderland now have a worse goal difference than Newcastle. That point against Fulham might have come in handy Howard Webb you bastard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Assuming Boro are down - leaves 27 combinations of results from us, Hull and the shite. 11 of those combinations keeps us up. Yes, I'm nervous. Yes, I'm boring. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GM Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 So 16 of 27 results combinations would send us down? I'm up to a 9.5 then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 In some perverse ways its a more straight forward task for us and Boro. We simply have to win. Hull and the Mackems will be stuck between stick or twist in terms of trying to defend for 90 minutes or going for the win. I can see all 4 teams being in and out of the bottom three during the 90 minutes on Sunday, Jeff Stelling et al are going to have a heart attack.

I doubt we'll be going all out for the win with this in mind. I think they may well sneak a draw, or at least be holding out until the last 5/10 minutes. Looks like the 4th choice keeper may be playing for Man U. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troll Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 It's back in our own hands now. There's no way Man Utd and Chelsea will both lose, meaning a win is almost certain to keep us up. In Villa's last 12 games, they've won one, drawn 5, lost 6. Our form may be even worse, but we've still got something to play for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmymag Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 we're 7/10 to be relagated now And you've got us down as a 9/10, and as a betting man I'd assume that means you've been down to see your local bookmaker and availed yourself of, what you consider, to be a value bet.
