We are not safe, but it would take 4 teams to overtake us to relegate us. Even if we lose our last 2 games, that means: Blackburn getting at least 1 point Plymouth getting at least 2 Wednesday getting at least 4 Birmingham getting at least 4 All 4 of those need to happen to relegate us. And, of course, we may pick up some points, which will make those requirements even higher. That is why the odds are 50/1 or longer. (I'm ignoring Huddersfield as they would need 2 very big wins). |

I was lucky enough to see pretty much all of his home games and a few away too. What a player and what a character. Just loved going to LR in those days. So many memories. |

I was lucky enough to spend my teens watching Stan at LR. My username says it all. What a player and what a character. RIP. |

We’ll lose and Dickie and Wells will score. I wonder what odds I can get on that. |

I don't think so. But it might be worth putting something on Rotherham to beat us the week after. |

That was just so QPR. The day we need to be our best is the day we are our worst. The worse the opposition the worse we play. Can't see any any chance of escape now. We've blown our easier Jan & Feb and our chances to get out of the bottom 3. March is tough and I wouldn't be surprised if we end up in the bottom 2. |

Getting nervous about this one. I don't see a draw as a good result; this is a match we need to win. (Use of semi colon with thanks to the other thread!). Obviously a defeat would be a real set back. A draw would use up one of our diminishing number of opportunities to escape the bottom 3. We have a tough run of games in March so we need to pick up some wins now. |
| Forum Reply | Is this, unexpectedly, a season to be savoured after all? at 14:01 7 Feb 2024
Too early to tell. Loving the positivity at the moment but this club has let me down too often for me to trust it. Problem is that however hard I try to tell myself that, I can't help getting swept along and ending up gutted. |

My impression on the 40k at Wembley was that they were mostly real fans but included many who don't go every week, many who hadn't been for a while and some guests (I took 2!). Apart from the match itself, my abiding memory was the guy next to me who'd bumped into Stan walking down from Wembley Park station and had a selfie with the great man. I think that was a bigger thrill for him than Zamora's winner. |
| Forum Reply | Dykes in midfield? at 09:17 15 Jan 2024
Just don't get the hatred for Dykes. Yes, he's a limited striker but he works hard, is rarely injured and never hides. I thought he had a good game yesterday - and he scored. |
| Forum Reply | Colback or Dozzell? at 17:32 14 Jan 2024
I'd say that Colback was very poor. His 2 decisive contributions were: (1) Made a shocking tackle that could/should have been a red. (2) Missed a gift-wrapped chance at 0-1. We talk about needing a quality striker but any professional footballer should be scoring that. |
| Forum Reply | Big thank you to Clive for keeping this forum going at 17:04 31 Dec 2023
Well done numptydumpty for starting this thread. Not sure if Clive realises how much his work is appreciated or how much his writing is admired. There are probably many like me who read regularly but only post occasionally. Many thanks Clive and keep up the great work - please! Happy New Year to all. Let's hope that there is much to cheer in '24. |

Bad reffing mistake but 2 or 3 City players should have been sent off for the way they went after the ref. The spoilt little boys aren't used to bad decisions going against them. They also don't want to admit to their own part in failing to win the game. |

Brilliant choice. Hard to choose just one but this would certainly be on my short list of 2 or 3. [Post edited 15 Sep 2023 10:52]

I'd never use Purple Bricks. We saw a house on Rightmove that we wanted to view and they made it virtually impossible for us to do so. So, how are they working in the sellers best interests if they are stopping viewings by potential buyers? |

Now I understand why Willock has played so little part this season. We're focusing on the first 4 letters of the alphabet. |
