Robert Barnes 19 Posted March 11, 2016 I Still believe that we have a chance all bet it slim of surviving.There are still 5 teams in this relegation race, a slip up or 2 from any of them and down they slide. We need our team to play hard and play like they can and who knows what could happen. We can and have beat any team in this league OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 318 Posted March 12, 2016 Starting today we need to show that it is possible to avoid the drop, not sure we can do it, nothing in the past to give any confidence regarding survival. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,139 Posted March 12, 2016 Not a time to be either optimistic or pessimistic, it''s very much in the balance.Finklestein in the Times uses percentages to predict games and for today''s encounter he has it as:Norwich win ....... 17%Draw ..... 20%Man. C. win ..... 63%Which is about right, although a a City supporter I''d go for 20-20-60. (smiley)Similarly, I would rate our chances of survival as:Stay up 45%Relegation 55%This slightly negative, yet realistic assessment is based upon our recent form, games to come for all three teams and managerial changes. The latter, I feel, gives our opponents a slight edge, although the reverse could happen and we could well benefit from the consistent factor evoked by keeping AN in place.A gush of positivity from this forum will not make the slightest difference to the outcome of the season. Neither are those who''s glasses are far from empty any the less true City supporters because of their pessimism.The odds are only slightly against us, as I see it, but with ten games left a lot could happen ...... and it will.

nutty nigel 7,526 Posted March 12, 2016 Realism about an unknown can only be judged by the person making the guess and not reality of events. Tagging "realism" to an opinion is only like saying "I read it in the tea leaves". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,139 Posted March 12, 2016 NN: "Realism about an unknown can only be judged by the person making the guess and not reality of events. Tagging "realism" to an opinion is only like saying "I read it in the tea leaves"."As opposed to the "knowns" being our points tally so far this season, our recent form, our remaining fixtures and the managerial changes of our rivals, which could or could not be of benefit to them.Quite easy to make a realistic assessment from that list, I should think. Even without resort to tea leaves, or whatever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
