splendidrush 698 Posted April 20, 2019 We'll have it done against Blackburn, said so before Wigan and it's looking even more likely now. Get ready for the party! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarydan23 4,060 Posted April 20, 2019 "Teams clearly know how to play us" Not really. You can't rely on dodgy refereeing. We've not been at our best but the fact of the matter is with three decent refs the past three games we would be on a phenomenal 11 game winning streak: Reading - 2 penalties denied, one as blatant as you'll ever see Wigan - there only goal came from a "joke" penalty Sheff Wed - should have played most of the game with ten men and an outfielder in goal and their second was one that would've shamed Maradona and Henry It seems that what teams need to "play" against us (not beat us, BTW) is a supportive ref. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PurpleCanary 5,530 Posted April 20, 2019 We are stumbling a bit, and nerves are plainly showing, and I am as cautious as anyone and absolutely not counting any chickens, but... We only need to get to 92 points if both Leeds and Sheffield United win all their remaining games. The chances of six wins are small. Leeds United in particular would do very well to beat Brentford away and Villa at home. If only one of them draws a game our required total drops to 90, and if only one loses it drops to 89. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skyrider 6 Posted April 20, 2019 (edited) I have be following and had a season ticket for 40 years Norwich City don't do easy it will be done next Saturday At least we got three points in the three games and do not lost Leeds and Sheffield ut'd will draw with Ipswich Edited April 20, 2019 by Skyrider Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Il Pirata 249 Posted April 20, 2019 Since 6 games to play we've only needed 2 wins. Now with 3 games to play, we still need those 2 wins! Personally, I cant see how we're going to win another game! The gravity of the situation has really got to everyone, including Farke. That Reading goal ended the invincibility feeling.... we look a different team and far from our best. Some of the passing and decision making last night, particularly in the second half, from the likes of Leitner, Mclean and Steipermann was shocking and uncharacteristic! Even Pukki smashed a cross into row Z late on! The players are riddled with Nerves. How do we get over the line?! Thankfully I don't need to find the answer, because my nerves are more than shot! What a season, eh? Probably the best one I've witnessed. Just get over the line boys... please! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JF 694 Posted April 20, 2019 Stoke away is probably a perfect match for us. Away from home so the pressure and and nerves from the crowd won’t be a factor. Stoke have had a poor season and have nothing to play for and their fans aren’t exactly going to be up for it. Get Bundia back in the team, play how we can and we should get three points 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Villa beat Leeds we'll only need 4 points to get promoted I seriously hope we have the promotion and title tied up by the time Leeds get to potaloo road. A thrashing of town by Leeds to cement their forlorn place in third and ultimately failure in the play offs is required. Sod both of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baldy09 154 Posted April 20, 2019 I mention yesterday that I had a bad feeling and we are not playing well and yes I do believe we could be drag into the scrap between Leeds and Sheff Utd - Stoke win is a must a loss is the writing on the wall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex Moss 2,165 Posted April 20, 2019 I think promotion will be tied up on Monday, with the title coming at a buoyant Carrow Rd on Saturday. Try not to worry folks, it’ll be just fine 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JF 694 Posted April 20, 2019 I said last week that I thought promotion would be sealed Monday and I’ve seen nothing since to make me change my mind on that. I think we will take all 3 points at Stoke and I can’t see both Leeds and Sheffield taking all 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,655 Posted April 20, 2019 I'm not sure that we're more likely to win ...or less likely to lose at Stoke than Leeds are at Brentford or Sheff Utd at Hull.....we could easily lose whilst the other 2 win, which would make it terribly nervey thereon and in all probability our starting in 2nd place come k/o vs Blackburn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex Moss 2,165 Posted April 20, 2019 I’m pretty sure Paul Lambert will want Ip****e to end the season on a ‘high’, and I would think that they will make it far more uncomfortable for Leeds than what we all expect. I can also see a scenario where Leeds melt thanks to the pressure of having to get a cricket score to overtake Sheff Utds superior goal difference. That’s quite likely imo.

glory.win or die. 270 Posted April 20, 2019 1 Win should do it for us, and you have to fancy us home to Blackburn although there's no reason we can't beat stoke on Monday too. I'm worried tho, but more In a worse case scenario. Strangely the only time i have ever been confident of success was at Wembley,I just knew we would win. Monday is the big day..we could be promoted but we could also end up just 2 points ahead of 3rd with both teams below us having Ipswich to play. Anything can happen. But all 3 teams are under huge pressure and we at least have a 5pt cushion..Leeds and Sheff really have no margin for error which surely will cost atleast one points Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
