Watford - the final outcome

Let's just not get too carried away and forget the HUGE elephant sitting in the corner.

 

Bassini?

 

.....or should that read 'padded cell'?

I think Roger has actually missed a couple there though - there is always the dreaded possibility of loss of form, not to mention the Tall Poppy Syndrome to contend with. Eleven out of the twelve remaining teams we have to play will be aiming to 'chop us down to size' and be lifting their game accordingly. The twelfth is Cardiff - the only team above us.

 

Or Dumbo as he shall now be know

 

It's okay Saxet, he's been released by Ipswich and won't be coming back here.

Seriously, though, with the fantastic season we're having can we please all resolve to try not to be w@nkers about it?

 

not shamed at all. i just think something will go wrong for us in the final. I think we are good enough, but are the officials? and will luck be on our side too.

 

wont need the playoffs Dan I hope, playing some great stuff any karma or justice left in the world then we should be ok.

 

I would love that too. But i dont want to be over confident. I would rather dream small and have them exceeded than dream big and have them dashed.

 

I decided to be serious and vote for auto promotion, but my heart tells me Champions!

 

We have nothing to fear from the team in 2nd place. The hope is the top two can create a gap to the third team to make life a little easier. Right now you are 2nd and that means we are in the same boat trying to stay there. If the other teams want to help us then they can lose all their games from now on. Neither of us is planning on giving hull 3 points.

jck

 

I know that football does not turn on a single game but I think Wolves was your watershed - had you lost that you would be only five points ahead of two teams with 2 defeats behind you and the fears of a wobble would be rife. As it is you won and are 8 points clear with a game in hand and you need only to get just over a point a game now to finish top.

There is no way you should be able to mess up now - so yes - do us a favour and beat Leicester and Hull

 

maybe red would be fetching lol its goodenough for baadiff

 

Got SSN on, and apparently the latest odds with Skybet for promotion are: Cardiff 1-28, WFC evens, Hull 5-4, Leicester 13-10, Palace 9-4, Brighton 5-1, Blackburn 9-1, Middlesbrough 11-1. Obviously those willl change after tonight's matches.

 

What are the odds on Cardiff NOT getting promoted?

 

They didn't show that, unfortunately.

 

My guess 20-1

 

Yeah we'd be laughing because we'd expect to be favourites to win the league.

 

Perhaps we should hold hands and go skipping?

 

Interesting that the only person who thinks Watford wont make the play offs is a dumb Hull fan - clearly mathematically challenged

 

Bet this is not the result we would get if we polled again now

My own vote would downgrade to play offs - and failing to win through
