The Promotion Thread 2019

[SMH]

Oh bloody hell Luton...

 

[Hooped Wizard]

I’d be confident of beating Luton if they somehow bottle automatics, anyone else and we’re fucked. Just thank fuck useless Fergie is managing our opposition for 6th

 

[eric read]

We're definitely up for next week at Luton and playing well.

Although we made eight changes yesterday (although it never showed) Karl Robinson has said we owe it to the rest of the league to be at full strength next week and to give it everything. He also said that the club are still pissed off about the 98th minute Luton winner at our place, and the controversial red card for Shandon Baptiste earlier in the game.

I hope the midweek fixtures mean this game is "all or nothing" for Luton as we're coming to spoil the party.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

There was nothing controversial about that red card. In fact the only controversial thing about was that he wasn’t off for a foul earlier

Is there really going to be this mentality last day of the season with fuxk all to play for with a holiday the following day?

 

[BelizeHatter]

Of course. Wed wanna fuck up their party if the shoe was on the other foot.

 

[BelizeHatter]

Its OK tho. Its Oxford. We always beat them easily.

 

[Craig]

Posh win tonight and Luton and us should have it secured on goal difference at least.

 

[Luke Imp]

Or a draw?

 

[Craig]

Or a draw?

No if they draw they could still finish a point ahead of us.

EDIT: NO YOU'RE RIGHT, I THOUGHT THEY HAD MORE POINTS!! WE'LL TAKE A DRAW

 

[K-Win]

No if they draw they could still finish a point ahead of us.

If we draw tonight then we can only draw level on points. You'd basically be up as you're 9 and 13 goals better than us, respectively.

 

[Craig]

Might buy a pass on iFollow for it.

 

[K-Win]

Posh should be up for this one. If they don't win then the season is over for them.

Not sure what to make of Peterborough. Probably the most erratic team in the division. In 2019 they've managed to lose to Scunthorpe, Plymouth, Shrewsbury, Bradford, Wimbledon and Walsall. Yet they've beaten Oxford and Blackpool away, and drawn with Charlton and Sunderland.

Hopefully we've got enough left in the tank. I think we've played more games this season than ever before, although admittedly most of the Checkatrade squads were reserves/youth. Only got two injured players though so the squad is pretty healthy. If we can score first then we should be fine.

 

[Jamo]

I would love it, love it if we could go into the final game without any nerves. Posh disgraced themselves vs Walsall and will want to make up for that, plus they've generally been good away from home this season. It's a must win for Pompey so obviously they'll be giving it everything too. Not expecting anything other than a home win but I can live in hope.

Don't mind if Sunderland win at Fleetwood as long as they don't batter them 4 or 5 nil.

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

Not betting on them doing us any favours, MacAnthony has been having a go at the players on social media and already talking about next season. Might be trying to take the pressure off I guess but can’t imagine any of them are too motivated to play for the club whilst the chairman is acting like that.

 

[oakroader]

we are luton..nobody likes us....ask no favour give no favour....what will be will be....

 

[Craig]

I quite like Luton.

 

[oakroader]

I quite like Luton.

why craig?

 

[Craig]

Ok I lied.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Hasn’t Fergie been upto his old tricks? Telling players they aren’t wanted next season then relying on them to win the last 3 games

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Posh could be 3 up already, bloody rubbish Pompey

 

[Kenneth E End]

Oh my.

Surely after being so close so many times in the last week it’s going to happen...

 

[Kenneth E End]

2-0 POSH!!

Surely!!

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Squeaky bum time second half Kenny

 

[Kenneth E End]

Squeaky bum time second half Kenny

Surely they’re not going to come from behind again. Three times??

 

[Kenneth E End]

These next 45 minutes are going to be excruciating. We were seconds away from virtually sealing it last Tuesday. A half away from being champions on Saturday. Is it going to be agonising again?!

 

[oakroader]

Who needs laxative??

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Wouldn’t surprise me if Fergie put 3 defenders on after a hour if they are still winning

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Play up Pompey

 

[Super_horns]

Wouldn’t surprise me if Fergie put 3 defenders on after a hour if they are still winning

2-2 now and you'd expect Pompey to go and win now ?
