There are too many others in that running for us to outrun them all and pinch that 7th spot.
I have had constant smile on my face reading through the whole of this thread tonight,who would have thought we be where we are now.
200/1 sounds about right.It is possible of course but I won’t even be putting £1 on it.Having said that i don’t ever bet on anything. We would need to win 11 out of our last 13 games I would think to even have a chance. If that happens it would be quite remarkable. Let’s stop this silly talk and just be realistic which is a possible top 12 finish.
winning 7 drawing 2 would give us 23 more points to add to the 46 making 69 obviously with an obviously improving goal difference seems doable so long as Craig doesn't have a suspension or the goalie doesn't get injured of course 8-0-1 yields 24 but I'm not greedy5 home matches & 4 away to goBarnsley steam rolled into the play offs a while ago and went up at Wembley in that year Altrincham knocked them out of the cup on a friday night when was it they were 2nd bottom in November

Nobody could have possibly expected this outcome, because it simply doesn't happen.We only won 10 on the bounce once before, in a season when we were breaking all the records of English football.No team wins 29 points from its first 29 games, then 41 from the next 16. It just does not ever happen.But it's happened to us.You now have two choices.1) Revel in the historic nature of what we are doing.2) Dig at people who said 3 months ago that it couldn't happen.Have a look at yourselves in the mirror and ask which choice you'd like to make.

Good luck to those people that live their life in hope of a 1 in 100 year event and when it’s right think they are always right. A stopped clock is right twice a day.

We will be a stepping stone for him to play at a higher standard next season, and if I was a betting man I would be on him to play most matches like Faal injury allowing.Assuming that you maybe a betting man what odds would you give him be selected more than 10 matches (from the start)?10/1 meaning you bet £10 to win £1 and I'm being generous it's obvious he should have gone to a League one team not a League 2 team ( let's forget about that "dud Thomas " we signed from them who they soon released) - Craig signed a long term deal in the Summer of 2023 as I said.and it's obvious we splashed the cash (plus the joker card playing) to outbid league one teams I have been watching Plymouth for 3 years now seeing how they splash the cash to fill half the team with top quality loanees --- GRANT KNOWS THIS TRICK AS WELL AND HAS GOT THE T_SHIRT -- easy if you have the pennies :::Plymouth have just taken a tottenham 18 year old on loan as a couple of their loanees have been recalled : let's call it a library book team remember our joker card - in that Mason knows we are a family club with a Championship Stadium and pitch - we have a reputation for not playing "hoof ball land of the giants " football and we helped his career the joker card ?"In August 2010, Mason was loaned for the first time to Championship team Doncaster Rovers on a two-month loan deal,[15] and made five appearances.[16] Then in January 2011, he was loaned back to Doncaster until the end of the season[17] and made a further ten appearances.[16]On 28 July 2011, Mason signed a new two-year contract with Tottenham, keeping him at the club until June 2013. He was then immediately loaned back to Doncaster on a season-long loan.[18][19] Mason was recalled back to Tottenham in November 2011 after making five appearances since the start of the season.[20] On 29 December 2011, Mason and teammate Harry Kane agreed a loan deal with Championship club Millwall from 1 January until the end of the season.[21]"Mason will remember the circumstances of his recall ? (was he injured ?)Season changing loan ?? me thinx yesnow what are those odds

Approx £1800
Quote from: knockers on April 29, 2024, 02:05:23 pmApprox £1800 Don't wanna seem like I lack confidence in Grant and the players but if we get past Crewe I'll probably cash out so I can just enjoy the day out in London.
So it turns out I can cash out! Currently at £805.33. £3000 plus my £20 stake back if I stick it out and we achieve promotion. Anyone with more betting experience than me know or have any idea what I could expect to be offered to cash out assuming we beath Crewe over 2 legs?
