I’d in


With 6 to go down I’ll hold back on the excitement

Fair point although 5 of them around league 1 level may give us a fighting chance

Summer recruitment will be vital again

I think league cup possibly may go on hiatus. I hope it returns but in todays world it may not

True, but a lot of the premier League use squad players in early rounds, so still won't want extra games in league.

Agree however unprecedented times so maybe its time they dont get what they want

Relax we usually finished 15-17th whilst in the championship - we’ll be fine

Why 6 to go down?

 

[Grendel]

Why 6 to go down?

To rebalance

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

To rebalance

Isn’t that only if the prem don’t relegate though

 

[Grendel]

Yes but the chances are they won’t if they season isn’t finished

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

To rebalance

They may balance it out over 2 or 3 seasons, cant see them relegating 6 in one go.

Sorry to piss on your jealous chips, but I have already ordered some very expensive champagne in, I guess you be celebrating by waiting for your universal credit

Dale?

Will this new cup be named the Trafalgar square cup

I just took a look, they don't seem to be that bad, probably not much different to how we'd be- they know they're not going up whatever happens, but they're mainly saying void the season in what seems to be mostly a case of "if we can't go up then nobody should"

There isn't of course. But it's the circumstances that make it a bit of a shame! The one time in however many years where we are truly the best in the league and surely you cannot deny there is even the slightest of smudges on it! I'm still delighted and will celebrate accordingly, but struggling to believe you don't at least understand a little bit mate

I am honestly, genuinely not disappointed in the least- bearing in mind something like 50,000 people have died- I just feel good about this- if it happens. I know what you're saying and maybe its just me, but I honestly don't feel any sadness at all about the football, its just a great bit of news (if it is true!!) to make life a bit better.

The point is just bollocks. Its been negativity all the way through, slating players, calling Robins a twat etc- now we should apparently not celebrate promotion because of something which may or may not happen and because we are afraid of the Championship.

I already know of 2 teams we're better than, and we hardly did badly against Birmingham did we, what are they in the table- 16th or something?

Its off the field that would present more issues than on- I have no doubt whatsoever that Robins would keep us up in the division above, he's been proving the doom-mongers wrong for 3 years now and that would just continue to be the case.

 

[Ring Of Steel]

We would stay up. Would be a bit nervy at times but we would be ok.

Why we would refuse to celebrate promotion because of this is just the usual negativity.

You are right. Some people will find a downside but if this actually happens its another huge step on the way back from arguably our lowest point ever.

Many people were talking about the serious possibility of non league football 4 years ago, or even worse, liquidation of the club.

Strange that, think your boring everyone with your BS pal

Rather hilarious coming from you

 

[oscillatewildly]

This is all just in the (pre) proposal stage, right? I've stated already on a couple of other threads that I think there is zero chance of anything outside of PL or C'ship being decided on merit/PPG. I'm sticking with the 'power of negativity' - it appears to be tentatively moving things along in the right direction.

Yes I rarely come on here sober, need a stiff drink to get me through some off the dribble on here

If it does happen then Mark Robins goes second in our all time managers' list when purely taken on 'honours'...

1. Jimmy Hill (2 promotions)
2. Mark Robins (2 promotions)
3= John Sillett (1 FA Cup), Billy Frith (1 promotion), Harry Storer (1 promotion), Frank Scott Walford (1 promotion)

I don't want to tempt fate any more in case it doesn't happen..

Let’s be honest for a minute anyone with any respectable wealth wouldn’t sign up to an internet forum to tell strangers how great they are. I think you are living in a make believe fantasy and it’s not your first account on here

ROS is the most guilty of that to be fair

Forget the negativity - we are going up as champions who gives a shit about PPG.

All aboard Operation Premiership 2.0

You think Birmingham will allow this?

 

[Sick Boy]

Fucking hell imagine if was based on the halfway point of the season, there can’t be much chance of that, surely??

There are some "supporters" who have been advocating both... all be it with an agenda....
A promotion would hinder their plans...
