Feck me, that was tense again. So bloody glad we didn't lose to the bunch of cheating swines.... Watergate, then getting away with kicking lumps out of us but we still came through. The blues are staying up!!!
Unless we lose both, Reading win both and over turn our 7 goal better difference. Yes, we're safe.................
Nope, we are safe because Reading and Huddersfield play each other on the last day... Both of them are now unable to overtake us even if we lose both our remaining games... Huddersfield can if they win both their games (but stop Reading) or Reading can draw level and have to overturn our goal difference (but stop Huddersfield)... WE ARE STAYING UP, SAY WE ARE STAYING UP!!!
Unless delirium is setting in then I'm pretty sure that's the case. Where's Sparky when we need him... He's a details man!!
Not sure that’s right (sadly) as Huddersfield have 3 games. So they beat us & Sheff U & lose to Reading they’ve got 50 points. Reading beat Wigan & Huddersfield they’ve got 49 points. We lose both by a few goals then we’ve got 49 points & it’s down to GD
And now Rotherham must prepare for their next game against Hull Kingston Rovers , or is it St Helens?
T'Udders have 3 games left. If they beat us and win another, Reading beat them and win their other, Burnley stuff us and Reading turn over our goal difference then our survival is not mathematically certain. All together too complicated, with other clubs like Rotherham included, I can't get my head around it all. Suffice to say if we didn't stay up it would be totally Spursy. Speaking as a Spurs fan of 62 years. It's all very aunty, bollocks, uncle. Nevertheless I think we are 99% certain to stay up.
But if Reading don’t win we’ll not need a draw as we’d be safe. It would be nice to actually see a home win. We’ve won more away this season
As I said upthread, I dont see 4 teams overtaking us. Mathematically it could happen, but those theams are down with us for a reason. They dont win all their games. Funnier things have happened, but I wonder what the odds are on us going down at the moment? Sparkey? A big result for us last night which piles the pressure on the teams below us.
The "relegation" odds on offer dropped out of the outrights list on B365 quite a few weeks ago now - don't know why. You can still have a go at the "the top 6" finish and the "to be promoted" but that's all that's left in the "outrights" now.
Its such passion and togetherness that can dig you out of holes and scrape the points together to keep you up. For some reason, Sory seemed particularly congratulatory. I'm convinced we've done enough to keep us up. Time to look towards next season. Compulsory set piece practice and penalty taking for the off season. Can we have a bit more structure to rectruiting and a definite game plan ready for pre-season please?
