Basically means at the minute the bookies don't think we'll go down, but that will be an ever changing picture as games go by
McCririck has just turned in his grave, and he took some turning. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
It's not necessary to risk the future of the club though is it? Forest risked a small points deduction and got it, but it's worked out much better for them than not having a competitive squad would've done.
And if they went down They were ****ed financially Forest didnt do anything long term They got immensely lucky And its not something a club can copy
Didn’t invest in players that’s why they’re dropping like a sack of **** into league one, at least they’ll have a half empty new stadium though
Aint we am example of doing a forest but it not working? We chucked a load of short termism hoping to get promoted Forest got lucky and went up And when they got promoted They won a penalty shootout to even get to wembley All fine margins Stayed up by skin of their teeth
If it hadn't they'd still be trading as an EFL club. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
They're doing it long term now though - they've copied the Brighton model i.e. buying real prospects and selling them on at a profit and already have their target(s) lined up to replace them.
I’ve been reading a lot of comments over the last few months about how this is a poor Championship season, so I decided to look at the average points for each final position in the Championship since 03/04 compared to every team's current points and Opta’s predicted points to explore how this season might compare to the average Championship season. Interestingly, both the top and bottom ends of the table are doing – or expected to do – better than average this season. Average: 94 — Current: 88 (-6) — Predicted: 96 (+2) Average: 88 — Current: 88 (=) — Predicted: 95 (+7) Average: 83 — Current: 83 (=) — Predicted: 89 (+6) Average: 79 — Current: 76 (-3) — Predicted: 82 (+3) Average: 75 — Current: 64 (-11) — Predicted: 69 (-6) Average: 74 — Current: 63 (-11) — Predicted: 69 (-5) Average: 71 — Current: 60 (-11) — Predicted: 69 (-5) Average: 69 — Current: 60 (-9) — Predicted: 66 (-3) Average: 67 — Current: 60 (-7) — Predicted: 65 (-2) Average: 65 — Current: 56 (-9) — Predicted: 60 (-5) Average: 63 — Current: 56 (-7) — Predicted: 60 (-3) Average: 62 — Current: 54 (-8) — Predicted: 59 (-3) Average: 61 — Current: 53 (-8) — Predicted: 58 (-3) Average: 59 — Current: 53 (-6) — Predicted: 58 (-1) Average: 58 — Current: 50 (-8) — Predicted: 54 (-4) Average: 56 — Current: 49 (-7) — Predicted: 54 (-2) Average: 54 — Current: 48 (-9) — Predicted: 52 (-2) Average: 53 — Current: 47 (-6) — Predicted: 51 (-2) Average: 52 — Current: 46 (-6) — Predicted: 52 (=) Average: 50 — Current: 45 (-5) — Predicted: 50 (=) Average: 48 — Current: 43 (-6) — Predicted: 48 (=) Average: 45 — Current: 42 (-3) — Predicted: 46 (+1) Average: 41 — Current: 40 (-1) — Predicted: 44 (+3) Average: 35 — Current: 40 (+5) — Predicted: 43 (+8)
game week 43: derby v luton - 12.30 norwich v portsmouth stoke v sheff wed boro v plymouth swansea v city sheff utd v cardiff 5.30pm
Come on Derby v Luton draw, with red cards for Derby. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
A win sees them go above us, a win by two goals means if we draw they're still above us. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
…. Who cares if they finish above us??? The only important thing for us is finishing above the dotted line…a derby win makes that more likely doesn’t it???
I don't want any team below us to win, or finish above us, that guarantees us surviving. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
