It is frustrating, but I get it. I’m a head over heart kind of person and I like looking at numbers because I like patterns and find it fun, but I can understand that to others that’s a boring way of looking at things. Theres something romantic in thinking that something might happen, even if it’s incredibly unlikely.
It would give us the chance to avoid small shocks. That is all. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
Oh I love getting excited and carried away early in a season or after a sustained run of form, but people mistake literal mathematical chance (I.e points we have left to play for is more than gap to play offs) for real chance (the fact the teams above us won't all pick up zero points)
Before Derby BEAT Blackburn yesterday, there was just 1 point between Blackburn and Coventry. So yes, conceivable, but unlikely. Anyway, that aside, the complete statement was "It would only take us to do our usual this Wednesday and 1 or more of the current bottom three to pick up a win midweek (Cardiff v Luton, Portsmouth v Plymouth, Derby v Coventry = quite conceivable) and the narrative on here will soon change back". Can't you actually understand what the above is saying? "...and 1 (or more) of the current bottom three to pick up a win midweek .." Surely it isn't that complicated? I simply listed who the current bottom 3 are playing. One (or more) of them winning is what I said is "quite conceivable". If it helps, imo, I think Luton getting something at Cardiff is the most likely, followed by Plymouth at Portsmouth, followed by Derby at Coventry. But you never know (as we've proved against Sheff U, Sunderland, ...). I also think we'll get at least a draw against Oxford.
