RiseAgainst 3,792 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Two astonishing decisions considering the current stage of the season and the fact Watford are battling to stay in the PL. What is a new manager supposed to do in a week that Pearson couldn't? Incidentally, I have advocated Pearson as a future Boro manager for years. He worked wonders at Leicester, and built the foundations of the team Ranieri took to the PL title. Yes, he can be a bit...unpredictable, but Leicester scored shedloads under him and Watford are a powerful, physical side. Both the exact opposite of our squad, just as we approach a major clearout of all the dead wood. Link to post Share on other sites

BoroJake 2,345 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Leeds 3-1 up against derby whilst half-hungover. Hopefully they can do us a favour and beat charlton too Link to post Share on other sites
White Band 831 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Think that's Bournemouth down unless they win against Everton and Watford get beaten by a goal difference of at least 4 across their last two games. Villa actually have a chance as their game against West Ham us probably easier than Watford's remaining ones. Link to post Share on other sites
White Band 831 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Come on Forest, hold on and don't let Barnsley score, then you will have done us a favour. Link to post Share on other sites

Don’t think it matters. A Barnsley win would only bring them to 46 points 4 behind us with only one game left to play Link to post Share on other sites

It's highly unlikely they could catch us, but each relegation for teams below us removes uncertainty and is good for us. Link to post Share on other sites

Really feel for teams like that who try to follow the financial rules in the spirit in which they were written yet possibly end up relegated. Doesn't sit right but with the EFL just standing by and doing nothing what chance have they got. Link to post Share on other sites
