6th - won

Derby were 6th weren’t they?

Time to get the Lampard statue on order.

 

[thekidfromstrettoncamp]

Yes but remember we must assume Ipswich will win the majority of their remaining games

Think possitive they have only won 5 away and their 2 games in hand are away.Their away games include Watford .Southampton,and most of the religation threatend clubs 1 just being a local derby,Home games include .Millwall ,Brum and Middleboro,and they are 11 points behind with a far inferior GD.
Enjoy the ride.

I struggle to know which of Blues or Wrexham I want in the play offs least. Don't like either club. I

Tricky, isn't it.

Birmingham's owners are genuinely odious in a way that Wrexham's aren't, but Wrexham just feels a bit more egregious.

Plus there's the utterly nauseous fawning over them. Salford never got the same brown-nosing for buying their way out of non-League. Perhaps Gary Neville should have appeared in more shit superhero films.

I did laugh last year when they played each other and some wags dubbed it 'el Plastico'.

I'd much prefer Ipswich over either of them. Much prefer them.

The fact you haven't even mentioned Leicester conceding late to deny them a win shows what a cracking day it was!

Leicester? Who the fook are they?

Sorry but only interested in decent sides. There's only 2/3 of us. The rest are also rans.

And Millwall over any of those 3.

 

[Lamps]

I'm in Scotland. We are an hour behind

You're a fookin lifetime behind

 

[Otis]

Did I say that?

I might have done, tbf.

I did feel like it a bit after the couple of results preceding it.

Football fans are always reactionary, though some are worse than others.

No, don't think it was you. May have been Tommo 93? Not 100%, but others agreed too

 

[robbiethemole]

Just had a quick look at the other sides boards,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, lots of infighting and bickering, loads of 'we're fucked' and Lesta 'we're going down', I fucking love it after all the years of SISU shit we put up with!!

 

[mmttww]

Oxford's results vs. the top teams is a bit mad.

Sounds a lot like this place for the past 2 months

A dream day. Getting myself a few beers to watch EFL highlights tonight. Will be a great watch.

[quinn1971]

Difference a week makes, it’s our year , just stick with them

 

[Otis]

It was more rope and razor blades to be honest.

Our season was over.

Doesn't look over now does it.

 

[quinn1971]

Sorry I’m pissed, had EMC 1st goal and 2-0 milking the shit out of this weekend, its happening pusb

 

[Sick Boy]

And Millwall over any of those 3.

I’d like to go up with Millwall in 2nd and Derby in the POs.

 

[Danceswithhorses]

6th - won

nope - Derby were 6th BEFORE the games (not afterwards)

 

[SKYBLUES90]

I don’t know how but I’d totally missed that Leicester appointed Gary Rowett as their new manager. Some fall from grace that.

 

[thekidfromstrettoncamp]

Sorry didn't realise haven't read all the Quotes too many for this old geezer.

 

[Briles]

Rumours Ramsays been sacked

 

[robbiethemole]

Board meeting straight after the game

 

[EalingSB]

What a day, probably the best Saturday of the season

Great day but securing the stadium and putting 7 past QPR in the sunshine was also pretty special.

 

[Lamps]

No, don't think it was you. May have been Tommo 93? Not 100%, but others agreed too

And there goes the problem.

Predicting before a season starts is a fools game. Let's keep this polite.

I predicted we would finish 2nd to 4th. I was a fool. I predicted the Southampton manager wouldn't be a good choice. I was a fool. I predicted Leicester would have a hard season ahead. I was a fool. I predicted Ipswich would run away with it. Nobody disagreed but I was a fool. Middlesbrough sold most of the players that scored their goals so I thought they would struggle. I was the fool again.

Just because we get some right it doesn't mean it makes up for those we get wrong. Hull? I had them near the bottom. Today is where they are not going to worry us but it has taken nearly 3/4 of the season to know that.

Predictions are just that. Predictions. I know I thought we would be in a strong position but that means nothing. If football was as easy as that the bookies would be skint and we would be rich. Leicester would have got relegated 10 years ago instead of winning the Prem.

Unemployment will lower anyone's standards. I'm sure he hates it.

 

[Frostie]

Dodgy fake keeper injury

 

[shmmeee]

Didn’t we post basically this exact thing on TikTok when we played Blackburn a couple of years back and the same thing happened to them?

 

[The Nomad]

You're a fookin lifetime behind

Not at Rugby

 

[Finham]

That Ipswich result is so massive: even if they win those two games in hand, they're still 5 points behind us and 2 off 2nd. And with the fixtures piling up, its a big if. The pressure is really back on them now.

 

[Briles]

Didn’t we post basically this exact thing on TikTok when we played Blackburn a couple of years back and the same thing happened to them?

We did it to loads of teams that season too

 

[Finham]

Not at Rugby

It's not a great town, granted.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Hope Hamer picks up a red card tomorrow

 

[Finham]

I’d like to go up with Millwall in 2nd and Derby in the POs.

Eyeing that relegation battle, eh?
