Dokko Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 We've Sheff Utd away coming up and we simply cannot afford to lose or be prepared to be drawn into a relegation battle which i doubt the players or the fans have the stomach for, especially considering 2 of out of our last 3 home games are against the 'big 4' opposition. This really leaves for us to secure EPL status in the away games, something which frightens me right now, and apart from the last day of the season, this game is the easiest opposition on paper, lose, and expect a snowball effect which could bring us right to the relegation knife, whether it cuts or not depends on the teams below who are picking up form and closing the gap every game. They could eventually crumble and we will have nothing to worry about, but those teams are mentally in a relegation battle, they have already started to fight for their lives, were simply asleep and could easily lose out if the fight comes to us. 2 wins would secure us in my opinion & Europe is now a distant dream and unless something dramatic happens we can forget about it, the players and manager have let us down on that front, they don't deserve it even if we do. The run in looked rosy on paper a few month ago, the teams haven't changed, only our form which ironically has got worse since out key players have come back from injury, says something for the kids and also the mega stars, it also says a lot for luck (Spuds game) and a couple of goals from Martins who if he didn't go on some form about that time would have meant us being were we all fear right now, in the thick of the battle at the bottom. So when do we panic? Now, after the Sheff Utd game or when were 17th hanging on for dear life? I don't know, but the fans are really out of this one, apart from the Blackburn game, which by then we either don't care as we have our wins, or shitting bricks and baying for blood, either way poor way to end another disappointing season. So the next game is vital, 2000% if some think we have any chance of getting into Europe, drop any more points and thats gone meaning even less money for a club losing £1m per month as it is, but its just as important with the rest of the run in that we win to keep us out of the fight, if we lose, the shit will really hit the fan.

ElDiablo Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Away, against a team that needs the win, crowd behind them, with the incentive of having us in their grasp, Roeder in the dug out = Loss. Charlton all over again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephen927 Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 We'd definitely be pushing our luck if we came away with anything other than a win. Sheffield away, Blackburn home and Watford away are the only wins I can see us picking up from now until the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicago_shearer Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 All true. But one of the biggest problems this club has is that you don't see a natural leader on the pitch. Someone to step up and lead by example. We only showed any urgency against Man City after we went behind - 80 minutes of dictating posession without creating any chances before we showed any attacking spark. They SHOULD have had all the incentive they needed to put in a performance yesterday after the Alkmaar debacle & capitulation to Charlton....but they seemed as boring, uninspired and one dimensional as always.

The manager is so fucking stupid he cannot put out anywhere near our bets side, how do you expect him to be good enough to identify, empower and support a leader on the pitch?

Agree, we have noone who can get us a goal out of nowhere when our backs are against the wall (like a Robert or Bellamy to an extent). Or be our Gerrard and lead by example, we make hard work of scoring goals, which we needn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, got you now, was thinking what were you on about there. Soz for snapping, thought you were being serious that we needed to repsect GR & the board! Aye, they have, although the board lost our respect a long time ago, GR has made sure with his latest comments any last bit of respect for him has completely evaporated, the defeats we can take, that's football, but the tripe he comes out with, and now sinking to a new low blaming the fans, well, his cards are marked, its only time until he's sacked, its just whether the board decide to amputate early and avoid anymore damage done next season.

Tbf they never really had the respect anyway. yes... when still at UEFA... i still think roeder was decent manager... all players still good enough for at least 7th place... or at least if we lost we lost to much better side i.e. Seville... Fat fred still had my respect... for appointing roeder because we still has the stability... of playing... but now i feel i just want to get rid of all of them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledDog Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Not in any way panicking yet. Yes we are garbage, but some of the clubs below us have as bad or worse run ins as ourselves. Lose to Sheff United and I'll get twitchy, but I cannot see us not pulling the few points we need out the bag in the remaining games. Even I have enough faith left in the squad to believe that.

NUFC06 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I think if we lose to Shefild United we are going into the relegation battle especially with this kind of football we are playing and the tough games still left to be played-Arsenal,Chelsea,Portsmouth,Reading 2-3 more games withough win and we are 17th Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 We owe tham a stuffing after the embarisment of them stuffing us up here, I just hope Glenn does not choose to try another AZ tactic of sit back and hit them on the break.
