Yes, it’s the only way we can go down now and would be such a Wednesday thing to do. However we’d have snatched your hand off to be where we are Now at any point of the Season. Rohl has somehow managed to get a team who looked completely hopeless and lacking in both belief and effort into a unified unit, who would run through a wall for each other and at times play some lovely Football, but it’s the energy and Will to Win that’s most impressive. He’s also got the whole Fanbase behind him and the Team. All this despite having to work with Chansiri. Fantastic job, but not quite complete Yet. Keep us up and stay at Hillsborough and it could be just the start, even with Relegation we must do everything can we do to keep him. Already nervous for Saturday.
All of the permetations that see Blues survive require us to beat Norwich and hope for other results. Having been through this final day scenario countless times this year feels different, I just don’t see this useless bunch of gutless wankers being able to get anything from Norwich. I can see Saturday turning pretty nasty, early KO or not, there’s already been fans turning on eachother the last couple of games, think the players might be in line for some on Saturday. Can’t wait!!
Nah, the Rooney stuff left when his fat arse checked out stage left, you’ll not find a Blues fan with a good word to say about him. It’s typical frustrated fan behaviour when everything is going to shit, some people seem to think you have to stand and applaud whatever tripe is served up, where others seem to think you can shout whatever obscenities you like without recourse because you’ve paid for your ticket… The truth of course is somewhere in the middle. I neither applaud or abuse, I walk straight out and have a beer.
Blues beat Norwich and Hull beat Plymouth. It shouldn't happen but this has been one crazy season so why not?
There’s rumours of big changes at the club this summer. Our Director of Football is apparently off to Lyon, we need a new manager, it is an absolute necessity we find a good striker and also having to replace Jack Clarke when he inevitably goes to a Premier League team. One of the biggest summers we’ve had in recent times and we have to get it right. I didn’t realise just how bad we’d been until I seen that table posted. Frightening that it’s only Rotherham who’ve been worse than us in that time. If Sheff Wed beat us on Saturday they’ll only finish 3pts behind us I’d have called you mental if you’d said that a month or so back.
Least you'll get a decent batch of new grounds in League One next season. Let us know what the Mem is like! Shame Walsall aren't still down there, could have started a rivalry with them
I was visiting Bristol Rovers back in the mid 90s Joshua when you wasn’t even an itch in your dads underpants, not much will have changed in the intervening years I imagine!! Being shit and playing in shitholes is nothing new to me, in a macabre kind of way I’m looking forward to revisiting my youth. Same goes with Walsall, they detest us, also going back to the 90s when we used to play at the same level, we took the piss at their ground during a pre season friendly, they’ve never forgiven us, and never invited us back!!
I think you will win with the way you've been going. Reckon Birmingham win too which isn't good for us, Wagner *may* rest players, flashback to Huddersfield v Birmingham and Brum winning and surviving and we went on GD. My hope is Plymouth slip up, not that it's them specifically I want to go, just the match I could see a slip up in but they did beat Leicester, so... Think we lose to Leicester unless the title win does us a favour in any way. Be a nervy end anyway.
Yeah we've been having the same arguments this season. Our home form has been terrible all season and you get the happy clappy section of the support who try to blame the fans for it because we haven't been creating a cacophony of noise for 90 minutes every game even when we're 3-0 down and have had the temerity to boo them off a few times after some particularly terrible performances. And then there's the other side as you say, the 'I've paid my money so I can say what I want to these useless overpaid fannies' who sarcastically cheer when the flavour of the month worst player in the team is belatedly subbed off and shout abuse at individual players and the dug out etc. Which I think we can all agree isn't helpful. The truth is in the middle like you say. Yes the atmosphere has been mostly crap this season but the reasons for it are pretty understandable what with how awful our football has been continually for the last 7 years and 6 consecutive bottom half finishes. Atmosphere is a two way street and the players need to give you some sort of spark, something to grab hold of and they consistently fail to do that. I think overall considering how sharp our decline has been and how mind numbingly bad the football has often been, we've been pretty patient and had we done this in the 90s there would have been protests and pitch invasions by now. But it's also true that there have been some unhelpful things creeping in like the occasional targeting of individual players and the full scale arguing between the team and fans at Blackburn in February. Tension and frustration is definitely building and I think it'll pour out next season if we have to endure another relegation battle. I'm the same as you, after a crap performance I just walk out in silence and leave them to it. No polite clapping, just straight down the stairs and out. Most of the useless twats aren't worth getting angry over.
The chairman knows what we need, he’s opening all the bars around the ground at 10.30am, all beers £2 a pint, just posted on his Instagram quoting the acronym FEA referencing an old Blues song from the terraces “F^ck ‘Em All” which was sang at the end of the most recent open evening. He wants it nasty, he wants it hostile, he wants Norwich to walk into a bears pit. He just might get it, until we go 1-0 down, then I’m off to smash some of that £2 grog!!!!
Aye we've been shite for a good few months now, and nothing to play for. I can see an away win today. Let's have an entertaining 4-4 draw meaning Weds get the point they need I'll be there work is doing a corporate day so lots of free drink and food
Tough luck for Birmingham but if they keep Mowbray I think they come right back up, and coming off a winning promotion season is probably what they need after circling the drain for years.
Another season in this wonderful division. Staying up is a huge achievement considering our budget alone… then add everything else that’s happened this season Two promotions and the goal to keep us in the Championship- Joe Edwards, captain
