2 games to go (16 Viewers)

I thought we played very well at Hull..

Should have beaten them easily.

So which member of the team deserves our scorn?

This game is just as difficult as it's against a side playing for their survival in the Championship. If Lampard doesn't set us up wrong for our opponents like he did with Plymouth we will have a better chance of getting something from the game.

And Derby unfortunately not like he hasn't been forwarned.

I am pretty confident about Saturday and I sure we will get a reaction to the Plymouth game.

We only need a point. Luton have to win. We might be able to exploit that. Plus we played very well in the two games prior to the Plymouth game, so you would expect a better effort this Saturday.

Plus, there is a bit of the revenge factor too. They went up, we stayed where we were. Now we could pretty much send them down.

I wasn't nervous for WBA. I did think we would struggle at the "they are bottom for a reason" Plymouth game and it proved to be the case.

I just knew Plymouth would play well.

Luton have to win. That may prove to be very nervy for them

My gut feeling on the day was that we’d draw because I couldn’t recall us going back to back on the Easter games.

It is a bit reductive, but our results this season has pretty much been decided by the first goal. It’s something we need to get much better at next season, something similar happened in the L2 days.

Against Luton, I’d like to see us be a bit more conservative and let the pressure mount up on them to come at us so we can find the spaces that Plymouth didn’t allow.

You are right, I didn’t feel nervous v WBA or any game at home for that matter, including Boro.

Those Arsenal teams still had the likes of Vieira as a midfield general. There isn’t really a comparable figure in this team.

Post then.

I'm thinking the era with Hleb, Fabregas et Al.

Though a fully fit and on form Sheaf could fill that role... he's doesn't and will never have that steel tho.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Two games to go. Essentially it is the playoffs already as the matches are more or less knock-out.

I have concerns that we aren't tough enough when we are playing teams that are fighting to the death. Hopefully that won't be the case and we can put Luton out for the count. We can then worry about not losing to Middlesbrough. Gonna be tense.

Let’s say we don’t make it and it’s a Sheff Utd Vs Sunderland final…who’d you want to go up?

Sunderland for me.

Sunderland for me.

Suppose I’d say the same. Sunderland are the bigger club.

 

[Lamps]

Let’s say we don’t make it and it’s a Sheff Utd Vs Sunderland final…who’d you want to go up?

Sunderland for me.

Sheffield United would most probably have the better side out of the two in the Championship next season. But I'd laugh my fookin arse off if Wilder failed then got the sack.

Sheff Utd

If Sunderland go up it would leave us to compete against one more team with parachute payments

 

[bigfatronssba]

If we draw the next two games we're in the play offs.

If someone had told me that at the start of the season I'd have been delighted

If you had told me that in November I would've allowed you to do unspeakable things to me


No matter what happens it has been a brilliant 2nd half of the season. If Lampard can get us going from August next year, then I am very hopeful for next season

 

[shepardo01]

If we draw the next two games we're in the play offs.

Not necessarily.

Would I want a hippopotamus to drag itself from a stagnant swamp and empty its bowels directly into my mouth or would I want a horny gorilla to to swing down from its tree and force itself into my anus? These choices are still preferable to the above.

 

[bigfatronssba]

Not necessarily.

Only if Millwall win at Burnley, which I really can't see happening

 

[Otis]

Not necessarily.

Very, very likely though


Either Blackburn or Millwall would have to win both their remaining games.

Blackburn are away at Sheff Utd last game and Millwall are away at Burnley.

The gorilla shagging you up the arse, surely.

 

[shepardo01]

Blackburn?

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Not necessarily.

In that scenario, it’d only be Millwall who can get to 69 points, right?

They have Burnley on the final day, it’s a remote possibility they end up on 69 points. Swansea is also a tough game for them.

 

[bigfatronssba]

Blackburn?

Would have to win at Sheffield Utd on the last day

Its entirely within our hands. We don't actually have to do much.

2 pts from 2 games. Its relegation form and we're in.

If we don't make it then it is only ourselves to blame

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Can’t see us getting anything at Luton which is utterly depressing

Haven't you heard Sky Blue Pete, Cov City love a must win last game of the season, it's in our DNA.

2 points from 2 games and milwall and Blackburn can finish above us, still think we get 4 points, preferably do it by getting 3 points Saturday

 

[Otis]

But highly unlikely.

I am convinced 2 points will be enough

 

[quinn1971]

That’s to get 6th, think we need to finish 5th to have a go, we”ll suprise everyone by hammering Luton and middlesborough, mad, we could actually finish the season only 4 points behind Sunderland

 

[Otis]

Yeah, 5th would definitely be a big advantage I think

 

[quinn1971]

Yeah, 5th would definitely be a big advantage I think

Massive, Sunderland over 2 games Rather than sheff Utd , could even be a Cov v mboro/ Bristol city play off final

 

[shepardo01]

Would have to win at Sheffield Utd on the last day

Who might Sheffield United play, over two legs if they were to lose to Blackburn on the last day.....
...... ......

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

I'm going early with a 2-1 win to city simms and wright to score
