It's strange as Penrith, Keswick have an accent but sound OK, likewise Carlisle in the North and Barrow in the South but once you pass Cockermouth the Workington, Maryport, Whitehaven triangle accent is something else 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaCider24 13,971 18.6k Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Norwich winning 2-0, which is a shame. Coventry are losing 2-0 though, which would mean we'd go to 7th if we win tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeaCider24 13,971 18.6k Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) A slender window is open. Win tomorrow and we're 7th, 4 points off the play-offs with 12 points to play for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And after tomorrow we still have Ipswich away and Leeds at home. But if we win tomorrow you can’t blame anyone for hoping. Stranger things have happened. But we probably need 15 points from the last five games and still hope Norwich slip up big time. And Coventry. And Preston. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still hoping that fixture congestion does Coventry's chances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaCider24 13,971 18.6k Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) Forgot that Preston had a game in hand of their own. But Southampton will be desperate to win that, tonight's results have opened up the door for them to sneak in to automatic promotion again.

LinoJo3 3,897 11.2k Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 that open goal miss vs Blackburn is looking pretty important rn lol. But if we pull it off and get into 7th with 4 points behind I’m not sure how close people want it to get before we get permission to ‘hope’ 🥲 The mental gymnastics to convince us that we still have no chance will be funny though.

Downsouth 6,746 36.2k Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Favourable teasing results last night but Hull will think the same as Boro. Probably a bridge too far but a Boro win tonight will sure make it interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we win tonight I think we are down to 5-10% chance. Fail to win tonight and it’s curtains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate, these are Boro fans your talking about. We could be sat a point off 6th on Saturday evening and there'd still be people saying we have no chance 🤣 We're a pessimistic bunch at times 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're probably right, but I think being 2-0 up and drawing against one of the worst teams in the league can have a catastrophic effect on the mentality of those Norwich players. The pressure they'll be under now will be immense. You can't underestimate what that negative momentum could turn into. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaCider24 13,971 18.6k Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 They do seem mentally fragile, Norwich, even though they're capable of putting in a great performance when things are going their way. Never seen a team capitulate as badly as they did when they had a player sent off against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
