a 2-1 win for us and a 1-1 draw for Bolton and say Bolton will go down. Would we accept those results now knowing Bolton would have to win at Stoke to stay up on the final day?
I'd rather Bolton lose and we win on Sunday, a bit of clear daylight would make all the difference...
Flyer! No we mustn't accept them! With those results a Bolton win at Stoke and us loosing at City would send them past us by a point and probably down. We must refuse to go down because Clint's goal needs to be added back in as another point, plus interest for late payment keeping us up. Which is what you mean I guess?!
Wouldn't be ideal but could be a lot worse. They would still have to win on the final day and we would only have to draw (eek).
Jesus boys, it couldn't be much better. If anything they have the easier game in a way. If we better their result this weekend its fantastic. They could easily beat West Brom.
No point worrying about anything other than our match against Stoke. What will be, will be. Let's beat Stoke and then see how we stand on Sun evening. All these threads about if's buts and maybes are driving me mad. Try and forget about everything except Stoke. For now, thats all that matters.
QPAAAAAGH predicts: the results from the 'action' in the MOTD backroom Lineker to stay on top Hansen to sneak in by the back door Lawro to go down
I always thought Lawro was the type to like a "big man at the back" so hed be the one with the backdoor action.
According to the only way we have of predicting the future ie looking at form and the odds, that is indeed the more likely (but of course not certain) scenario: Qpr 1.91 v Stoke 4.5 draw 3.75 Blackburn 3.6 v Wigan 2.9 draw3.6 Bolton 2.1 v WBA 3.75 draw3.75 Man City 1 v QPR 12 draw 6 Stoke 1.9 v Bolton 4 draw 3.25 As you can see, of the games that interest us on Sunday, we are the most likely to win and the odds for the last day demonstrate just how important that win is. For this w/e, our destiny is still in our hands to a considerable degree. The following w/e is damage limitation and protecting the goal difference though we did take City to a breathtaking 3:2 at LR. Last roll of the dice rapidly approaching!
Col, if that happens, we are more likely down than up. If we survived that, it really would be the great escape.
