cc_star Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 I think you need a different thread - not that I'm disagreeing with you. No, every single thread regardless of topic must be tainted with that point of view... It's law
ImBlue Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 No, every single thread regardless of topic must be tainted with that point of view... It's law The topic is effectively 'do you think we will stay up?' No I don't, haven't thought we stood a chance since Christmas. Were rubbish, and can't defend, hence were bottom of the league and will remain there until game 38. My sarcastic post was aimed towards those who just seemed to think we were fine, showing blind faith that everything just comes good. Funnily enough, them posts are few and far between now.
Donut Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 When you need 5 wins from somewhere, chucking one of them away in the 88th minute wont help. The word id use to describe us is ''plucky''. Not the most tactically aware or gifted squad, but always fighting as hard as they can and making the most of what theyve got most of the time. Sadly, that alone wont get it done.
AndWhat? Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Just noticed we play QPR and Villa play Burnley on the final day of the season. I just hope we're still in with a chance on the final day. That could be a cracker!
Max Power Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Just noticed we play QPR and Villa play Burnley on the final day of the season. SURVIVAL SUNDAY LIVE ON SKY. We'll be gone by then I'm afraid.
6ups 6downs 2 cups Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Imagine a last day scenario where we have to beat QPR and hope Villa and Burnley draw to stay up.
cjslcfc Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Kevin Kilbane does (not that I rate him as a pundit!) I reckon it will be close but we've already made enough mistakes and dropped enough points like yesterday's that means it's going to be very unlikely we stay up. We're not down yet. Anyone who says we are already down is just deluded. However, I do think it's a mammoth task from now on and we will probably end up going down, given how much ground we may have to catch up after the playing City away.
Fox Ulike Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 SURVIVAL SUNDAY LIVE ON SKY. We'll be gone by then I'm afraid. I think they'll go with: FOUR-WAY DEATH-MATCH SUPER SUNDAY (live on Sky)
6ups 6downs 2 cups Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 I predict the table will look like this after 37 games. Hull. 33 -13 Sunderland. 32 -18 Leicester City. 31 -13 Aston Villa. 31 -20 QPR. 31 -23 Burnley. 31 -24
5waller5 Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Even now I think we could just sneak it. We certainly don't play like a related side (most of the time anyway!).
LanguedocFox Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 I predict the table will look like this after 37 games. Hull. 33 -13 Sunderland. 32 -18 Leicester City. 31 -13 Aston Villa. 31 -20 QPR. 31 -23 Burnley. 31 -24 I'd like that, but out of interest, how did you work that out? I've worked us out at a realistic 32 points after 37 games
ADK Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 It's the mentality that bothers me. I think that is why Pearson had loaded us with older veterans. I can rely on Cambiasso to have 20-30 minutes where he creates chances for us. I can rely on Paul Koncheskey to play competently even though he has shortcomings. Huth has so far been solid, he's seen it all so he doesn't panic. But a lot of our players are erratic. Schlupp is such a massive confidence player, I knew as soon as he missed that open goal he would be useless and so he was. Had he tucked it away he would have been excellent for the rest of the half. Likewise Morgan can be solid defensively, but he loses his head and panics when we are up against it which is not what you need in a dogfight. Mahrez is inconsistent too.

Hull. 33 -13 Sunderland. 32 -18 Leicester City. 31 -13 Aston Villa. 31 -20 QPR. 31 -23 Burnley. 31 -24 I would absolutely love it if we finished above Ciaran Clark, Alan Hutton, Joey Barton and Sean Dyche on goal difference. Every Christmas rolled into one.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Come on City lets fvcking do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finn Claw II Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 what shit goodbye QPR will be if we and them are already down. may as well just give Mannish the highlights, then again the whole stadium could sing "Shit League, Shit Fans" for 90 minute.

Pearson said after the match yesterday that he was happy to have experience, particularly at the back, and I think that is going to help the team. Don't forget Nugent's experience as well: he made a big difference against Everton.
Guest Col city fan Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Yes I genuinely think we'll stay up. So much so, I've had a hundred on it. I just hope Nigel and the boys repay my faith in them.

Don't forget Nugent's experience as well: he made a big difference against Everton.You are being serious?
I blame Wellens Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Despite Pearson and his perculiar team selection, particularly at the back. I still refuse to believe we are down. And we slag ourselves off as fans but I do feel we are bloody good bunch who will pull together for the next 12 games
Buzzell Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Yes I genuinely think we'll stay up. So much so, I've had a hundred on it. I just hope Nigel and the boys repay my faith in them. What odds Col?

Guest Bilo Posted 23 February 2015 Posted 23 February 2015 Not long since done this prediction. Let's hope Col is collecting a tidy win.
