Because we were gifting goals, couldn’t score and looked like we wouldn’t win again all season. A massive turnaround saved the day. All this I knew we wouldn’t go down sounds like after the event bullshitI knew we would win the cup final in 1987 and that Man Utd would score 2 goals in the last couple of minutes to win the Champions League in 99 too
Same here. I had a little wobble after QPR, but was confident we had the points on the board and I dismissed Rotherham's games in hand. Games in hand are not points and just a quick flick through their fixtures showed how difficult some of those matches were.Even then we were consistently 6-7 points ahead of Rotherham...
We had a couple of tough away games that we lost badly and a lot of people were simultaneously catastrophising our form and overestimating Rotherham.
Cards on the table, I got very nervous when Rotherham pulled it to 3 points after their win v QPR because I did not fancy our away form. Other than that, I’ve been very much dismissive of our relegation chances.
Season after nextThe only sympathy I really have is for the Wycombe fans it could be some of them never get to see their side play in the Championship.

I would have only feared relegation if we had dropped into the bottom 3.
If you look back though, I DID fancy Wycombe at Rotherham in the Today's Games thread. Rotherham are very poor at home.In fairness to a lot of people, Rotherham did have Wycombe, ourselves and Birmingham at home as well as Huddersfield away. They just came away with 1 point from 12 which is why they’ll get relegated.
Had they beaten Wycombe, we’d have been in the bottom 3 going into that Rotherham game. Rotherham had their fate in their hands and they blew their best opportunities to stay up!
The QPR game racked me off and I stopped watching shortly after we went 2-0 down.

Possibly, though Rotherham did look shot the other day. Like they had completely run out of gas.If it wasn't for the fact that Rotherham have lost their last 5 games you would think they have a chance of staying up looking at their and Derby's remaining fixtures.
Rotherham have lost all the last 5 games by 1 goal and they have had some tough games with every opponent except perhaps Middlesboro needing to get the points.
I still think there could be a twist in this.

But while everyone was quite rightly banging on about us having the worse away form in the league they were ignoring the fact that Rotherham had the worse home form. Thats the lack of objectivity I was referring to.
I understand everyone was stressed by our plight but the doom and gloom wasn't the scale.
‘We dropped two points at home to Wycombe and they said we’re going down. A few days later we put in our worst display of the season against QPR and they said we are definitely going down now.
We won the next three games on the trot and I turned around and said what were you all worried about?’
