No one from the other relegation threatened local papers think it will be us

Recommended Posts

It's interesting that none of them think the team they cover will actually go down.

 

It shows how local bias affects people views.  Including ours.

 

P.S.  I hate the Mercury website.  It's that bad it makes you not want to open a link to it!

Interesting that none of the reports from the other bottom 5 clubs thinks we'll go down, because really all we've done is give ourselves a chance (which was incredible), rather than actually accomplish what we need to

Exactly this, we have achieved nothing yet, people can say we are safe, but we need to keep performing like the last 3 games, and hope we get the results.

Its all irrelevant what papers/pundits or bookies say. We need to gain points, just because we have won 3 in a row is meaningless to us staying up right now. It means we have a chance, technically, its still not in our own hands. Lots of minutes of football to be played, many more ups and downs to come.

 

Burnley away is absolutely huge. Not just for us to stay up, but IMO to almost guarantee 1 relegation spot to be filled by Burnley. Negative result and we are slap bang right back in the middle of it.

Well technically it IS in our hands...

Beat Sunderland and we go above them. We're already ahead of burnley and qpr so beat them and we're ahead of 3 teams. Match their results in the other fixtures and we're safe.

And that's before you take into consideration matches between relegation battlers like the Burnley/Hull game, for instance...

It certainly is, but it's also in their hands... if they win their games, they stop up

It's not over yet. 

 

Little do you know that their local newspapers are being banter merchants. We're favourites for staying up now which also increases the chances of us slipping up.

 

Don't be a sheep in the farm pal.

3 games ago a lot of them probably had us as dead certs. Therefore a lot can happen in the next 3 games. For all we know any one of the other teams will go win 3 on the trot. But with our fixtures and momentum, it's likely that we will be favourites.

I much prefer being written off. Now the bookies, the pundits, basically the entire world thinks we're already safe, and that doesn't sit well with me.

Agreed. We are screwed.

The contrarian approach would be to say that when everyone believes one way, it's time to do the opposite.

The financial move is therefore:

Back us to get relegated (I do hope that doesn't happen).

I think 7 should do us fine.

This is the thing isnt it, any of the rest of the bottom 5 could easily get a run of 2/3 wins in a row.

What's all this Rachel Riley stuff about? I've saw a few things about her on here over the last week.
