The Relegation Thread

[Walkley_Owl]

Maguire is staying on loan for the rest of the season.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

Wigans win gives them a bit of hope and keeps Fulham, Rotherham and Brighton involved.

Ridiculously, we could be back in a hint of trouble if we don't do well in our next two home games (Norwich and Fulham) and Wigan close the gap summore. We have a very tough April, but finish away at Blackpool.

 

[Walkley_Owl]

So the remaining fixtures for the "four"

Rotherham : Forest (a), Wednesday (h), Birmingham (h), Brighton (h), Boro (a), Fulham (a), Reading (h), Norwich (h), Leeds (a)
Fulham : Leeds (h), Huddersfield (a), Brentford (h), Charlton (a), Wigan (h), Rotherham (h), Blackpool, Boro (h), Norwich (a)
Wigan : Watford (h), Bolton (h), Boro (a), Derby (h), Fulham (a), Millwall (a), Brighton (h), Wolves (h), Brentford (a)
Brighton : Millwall (a), Blackburn (a), Norwich (h), Rotherham (a), Bournemouth (h), Huddersfield (h), Wigan (a), Watford (h), Boro (a)

Yeah, Blackpool will do well to stay up now

 

[Dazza]

I think they can be relegated this weekend if they lose and other results go against them.

 

[mistermagic]

Yep. If they lose and Rotherham and Fulham win, they're mathematically down.
Really wish Wigan beat Bolton this weekend. If they can't win home games they can't stay up! I'll let them off for the last game as it was against Watford who are high flying but cmon beat Bolton, Wigan! Fulham in the 3rd tier would be so funny.

 

[markwwfc1992]

Why do you want tinpot Wigan to stay up? To be fair though I'd love to see Fulham go down too.

 

[Bobbin']

Fulham should be in the third tier, at least.

 

[Super_horns]

What is the earliest anyone has been relegated?

 

[Madejski]

If I could ask for any two teams to go down it would be Wigan and Fulham. Shame Millwall haven't found form as that could have been on.

 

[Dazza]

The only good thing about Fulham is that it is a short journey for us.Still think Wigan will go down although if Wigan could win at Fulham on the 10th April it could change.

 

[Etienne Vermeer]

I'm sorry we're so incredibly crap. Wigan, Fulham, and Blackpool would be three relegations back to places where those clubs belong. It's sad that one will stay up.

 

[Muzzle]

Have to say Denzil, millwall were very poor at our place. We gave you enough chances to bring it back to 2-2 but your front line is pretty poor. Would rather, donkey Lashers, pie eaters and Fulham go down

 

[Bobbin']

I will miss Millwall as far as local derbies and a bit of banter with Millwall supporting mates go but seeing as we can never beat them or even score against them, I'll be pleased to see the bastards go!

 

[Dazza]

I would rather Millwall stay up and Wigan, Fulham,Blackpool went down.Always enjoy a trip to the New Den.

 

[mistermagic]

I don't particularly want them to stay up. I just find it a shame that there is no fight at the bottom to give the end of season that little bit of spice.
I've always preferred tight relegation scraps to who finishes in the top 4 tbh. Not sure why.

 

[Jockney]

We were really good yesterday, but the change has come too late. Expect us to give it a good go, though.

Yeah, your boys were excellent I thought. We nicked a result we didn't deserve.

 

[Kopper]

I had 60 odd accumulators and they all went down on the Brentford v Millwall result last week.
I still haven't learnt from the opening game of the season when all my accumulators hinged on Man Utd v Swansea.

When will I learn and earn?

60?!?! In one day?! And you didn't win any?!?! What the fuck!

 

[Dazza]

Blackpool going down today as it stands. Rotherham are 1 up.

[Jockney]

Almost certainly beyond Wigan now and possibly us, too. Have to beat Watford, and get at least a point from our game in hand away at Blackburn, to stand a chance. Harris is getting a lot from the limitations and inexperience of our squad but he's no miracle worker. We will do very well to keep Deeney and Ighalo out on Saturday, especially with an 18-year-old at centre back.

Hold fire...... & trust me I go to nearly every Millers game (missed two home games, & Blackpool away).....The Millers look awful just now, falling apart, I wouldn't back against RUFC going down unless we improve 100%.

Can actually see a potential points deduction playing to Evans' general indignation and galvanising your squad going into the last four games. Probably the fire up the backside that you needed.

 

[Nook Terrier]

At least we're not in this thread again until next season..

 

[beaufighter]

Good win for Millwall. Makes it very close. Looking at fixtures remaining I can see Millwall getting one more point, us getting three deducted and staying up on goal difference (assuming we get nowt else also)

 

[SamScfc]

If Rotherham win tonight are Wigan relegated?
