Promotion made easy

[tigercity]

Right lads.. we have 4 chances..

1. Lesta beat Watford

or..

2. We beat Barnsleh

or..

3. We beat Cardiff

or..

4. Play-offs

and if none of the above happens we don't deserve it.

 

[tigercity]

5. and if Waford get a point at the King Prawn, do we park the bus at Oakwell? .. that would be tantamount to suicide IMO..

 

[ellewoods]

actually there are 6 ways.

6. Leeds Beat Watford.

 

[John. Walkington.]

It's time for the players to 'Walk the Walk' and not 'Talk the Talk'.

Had enough prior to the Bristol match with them saying they all 'up for it' and then to not turn up.
If they blow it they will always be remembered and reviled as the team who blew it.

The supporters will turn up at Barnsley - will the players.

Either Watford **** up on Friday (= lose), or City get 1 point/3 points on Saturday

Yes?

No we have a 4 point lead so it is possible that we get 0 points and still go up even if watford win on Friday. A loss to Leeds or Lesta mean we go up. They must get a minimum of 4 ponts from their next 2 games to go up.

Yep I know that too well but I don't trust Leeds!! and I don't want to go up thanks to them.. (although I'd smugly accept it TBH)

 

[ellewoods]

There are far more than 5 or 6. I count 18 ways so far that we go up.

1. Watford win against lesta; Watford Lose against Leeds: We win against Barnsley
2. Watford win against lesta; Watford Lose against Leeds: We win against Cardiff
3. Watford win against lesta; Watford Lose against Leeds: We lose to Barnsley
4. Watford win against lesta; Watford Lose against Leeds: We lose to Cardiff
5. Watford win against lesta; Watford Lose against Leeds: We draw to Barnsley
6. Watford win against lesta; Watford Lose against Leeds: We draw to Cardiff
7. Watford win against lesta; Watford Draw against Leeds: We win against Barnsley
8. Watford win against lesta; Watford Draw against Leeds: We win against Cardiff
9. Watford win against leeds; Watford Draw against Lesta: We win against Barnsley
10. Watford win against leeds; Watford Draw against Lesta: We win against Cardiff
11. Watford win against Leeds; Watford Lose against Lesta ; We win against Barnsley
12. Watford win against Leeds; Watford Lose against Lesta ; We win against Cardiff
13. Watford win against Leeds; Watford Lose against Lesta ; We Lose agsinst Barnsley

We're more than capable of beating Barnsley away.

I don't think park the bus will come into it.

If they win both their last games, we need to win at Oaklands.

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Hope you don't miss the party by going to the wrong ground.

 

[ellewoods]

No in that situation we would only need to win One of our last 2 games so we can lose at Barnsley/Cardiff and still go up as long as we win One game. It is really not difficult math.

Remain calm all is well. Honest.

So...if we lose against Barnsleh, Cardiff will gift us 3 points?

Yeah, right.....

Im sure they wont. I am also sure it would be just as much up to us as them how that game turns out. The point was the possible ways. Unless you have ESP or a Delorean that has a flux capacitor then us beeting Cardiff is in fact a possible scenario.

 

[mostynthecat]

Think will be getting some booze to steady my nerves on Friday. The question which has to be taken into consideration is that last Friday we were playing a team who were relegated and there was the pressure/nerves from our fans, on Saturday we are playing away to a team who are under pressure also to get 3 points to avoid relegation - so will Barnsley V Us be an open attacking game with plenty of goals, or will it be a game full of misplaced passes and every player scared to make a mistake with added pressure from the crowd for the home team to get the 3 points. OR if Leicester win on Friday how will Bruce approach the game, and will our players then have the mindset that they want to show they are good enough to be in the 1st team next season

OK - point taken! But a win on Saturday removes the doubt.

 

[The FRENCH TICKLER]

Think of the pressure that Watford are under at the moment.? They have to win or it over as far as automatic promotion is concerned.

Absolutely and like you implied a win against Cardiff is no easy thing to accomplish so winning Saturday is of immense importance.

No, they could draw and still go up.
