Paullow Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Just looking at the BBC table and at the business end of the season, from the last 5 games, the below teams have collected the following points: Millwall 5 (5 from 6) Blackburn 3 WBA 8 (and have at least put together back to back wins) Coventry 6 Sunderland 9 Norwich 5 (or 7 from 8) Preston 9 (but were coming from far back, and have now lost their last 2) Watford 4 - and almost certainly out of the race Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LionOfGosforth Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Quality-wise, it's a garbage league, probably only a couple of teams that stand out, the rest aren't much better than the league below. It's no wonder promoted teams quite often go on and get promoted again straight away, the gap is generally not as big as people expect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think promotion would mean these chancers finally fucking off and selling to decent (and/or rich) owners? Could be a club-changing season if it does. Would also be another factor impacting on your chances next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sima Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Not sure why Diallo is still there. From singing racist songs about the size of his cock to now openly booing his religious beliefs, it's clear they most things about him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birtley2702 Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) Batth injured for them for the remainder of the season. Probably their player of the season, think that will put pay to any lingering chance of sneaking in the play offs.

NUFCDoog Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 In the play offs if they win tomorrow, another good day of results it's looking like for them. Need WBA to beat them tomorrow, still right in there mind even if that happens now, everyone around there just don't seem to ever fucking win Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 They're all so bad. Don't think I've ever checked the score to see a Blackburn win - yet they're seventh?!?!? Even if mackems lose to WBA, they'll beat Watford and Preston. Easily. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paullow Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Big goal for them that last second Preston equaliser. As Doog says, back in the playoffs if they win tomorrow. Currently 5/1 to make the playoffs which is the lowest odds for a long time. If they lose tomorrow, it's pretty much over for them as they will be 4 behind Coventry and WBA (who will have a game in hand) with only 2 games left, a win and they will be in the driving seat, still not officially in their hands (with WBA and Bburn having a game in hand, but with tough remaining games), but in a great position, and a draw will kind of be as you were, but another game chalked off. Basically win and they will probably make them, lose and almost certainly out, draw, still with a chance, but less likely. Coventry have Birmingham at home next. A bit of a derby, they have shared a stadium and Bham will want to beat them, but you'd think Cov would probably win (unlike most up there, they do seem to have a bit about them at the moment) and that could put them on 69 points and be very hard to catch if Sunderland didn't win tomorrow. Regardless, it's a really big match for them (and WBA). 3 big matches back to back with them, us, and then the FA Cup semi final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paullow Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I've mentioned before that I have put little bets totalling just under £15 and stand to return just over £1,500 if they do go up. £2 of that is on a 250/1 bet, so returns £502, and the current cash out is only £12.38 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Dare say tomorrow is shit or bust for their play off hoped. A loss and they're four points behind with three to play. A draw leaves them in the hunt but at the mercy of Blackburn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Personally would love for them to come up. The Ashley era derbies were by and large a disgrace (the 5-1 aside). This would be something else entirely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the Sunderland fans in my family have been saying for a couple of weeks now that their season is over and they’ll never make the playoffs with this being a commendable effort but that’s all.
