Happy Face 29 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) Scene taken from The Likely Lads episode The Suitor, first aired 1964. Terry: You going to the match tomorrow? They'll Lose! Bob: There's a shrewd observation. Of course they'll lose, they always lose. I can tell you what's going to happen now. They'll come out like Real Madrid, run round the field for ten minutes, get one goal down, go to pieces, lose five nothing, it's pathetic. Terry: So you're not going then. Bob: Course I'm going. it's innate. Edited March 17, 2008 by Happy Face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen 0 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) Going to stick my neck out and say 2-0 Newcastle. Owen in the first 10 minutes, Taylor towards the end. If we lose this it would be a huge opportunity lost to gain some crucial points. 3 points on the board tonight takes a great deal of pressure off and keeps things in our hands.

Row Z 0 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I fancy Smith for a goal tonight for some reason Its his kind of game, there wont be much football played and relegation 6 pointers are always about who wants it more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattM4 0 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Its his kind of game, there wont be much football played and relegation 6 pointers are always about who wants it more. But that's exactly the problem, Smith "wants it more" in absolutely the wrong way. Making him a waste of space on the pitch whoever we play.

The Fish 8973 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 my optimism has departed on a jet plane heading for warmer climes and sunnier dispositioned folk. 0-1 to the brums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asprilla 96 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 3-1 to them. I reckon they'll be really up for it and we're shit. I realise we played quite well against Blackburn, but we haven't got a single leader in our side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6300 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I think this'll turn out to be a draw.... Given where they are though, we really need the points tbh - those who claim that it's not as concerning since the results at the weekend are kidding themselves. This is one of the critical games Imho the critical games are the home games, this is one that can ease the pressure and give the team a kick start. Losing it would be bad but not a disaster. Maybe that's why I am not that nervous. Normally I'd agree but given that this is a real 6-pointer I think we critically need to win. If we lose, they're above us with a vastly superior goal difference. The psychological effect that'll have on us will be as bad as losing at home IMO. If we win, we're 6 points clear of the drop zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyluke 1 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 As shit as the entire situation is, does anyone else think it's a refreshing change to actually have something to play for at the end of the season for once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acrossthepond 699 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Us to win 2-0, it will be tight but all the luck we've missed out on will turn up tonight. Smith and Martins to score. Of course then Smith will be an instant hero and guaranteed for selection in all of the rest of our matches, but isn't that happening already? As someone said already in this thread, really fancying Smith to score tonight for whatever reason. Just a feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I might join the "mental" group, i reckon Smith is going to score (probably 1 in total this season) and i think its going to be a crucial one, so why not tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
