lake district canary 4,531 Posted February 5, 2017 Sad, maybe, but there is a point behind it. If Wolves, Ipswich, Villa and one or two others start getting strong and take points off our rivals, then that can only be good for our quest to get in the play offs and even the top two if we really put a run of wins together. Great if 1p5wich getting points helps us to get promoted, surely? [:^)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chesney Hawkes 0 Posted February 5, 2017 I want those binners to lose every match they play and disappear without trace via League One, administration, League Two, a winding up order and a rebirth as Felixstowe Athletic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lake district canary 4,531 Posted February 5, 2017 They play Brighton, Leeds, Newcastle and Shef Wed. Hope they win them all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FenwayFrank 2,459 Posted February 5, 2017 I would rather have another season in this division and see the Binners relegated, than have promotion with them beating those teams Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,606 Posted February 5, 2017 I struggle to ever want Ipswich to win. A draw I can take.Of course if it comes down to us needing them to win to make the play-offs then I can stomach it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,606 Posted February 5, 2017 @MortyYes I''d rather do it on our own merits but if we got to the final game of the season and needed a favour from them to make the play-offs then I''ll be ok with them winning- I''m more invested in our success than their failure. Also there is a delicious aspect to a good result for them being tainted by helping us out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drazen Muzinic 1,445 Posted February 5, 2017 I''m happy for a compromise of them drawing against our rivals - that would only help us as rivals lose two points and the Binners tread water in their quest to remain in this division for eternity.I wouldn''t trust them to win a game we needed them to anyway - and wouldn''t they revel in it if a loss stopped us achieving something.Lakey, I am happy to copy and paste this post the next time you dredge up the same topic.

Bagster 101 Posted February 5, 2017 When I was a young teen my dad used to say to me at the start of each season, I will take you to carrow road three times this year,what games would you like to see. Ipswich was always first on my list,for the atmosphere and also there in my view was not a better feeling in this world than beating the binners:)I would be happy if they drew all their games bar two, but I wouldn''t want to see them go out of business, I just enjoy beating them too much;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
