pete 318 Posted October 7, 2019 Apparently we are on course to stay up but given our away form we may have to rely heavily on the home form to pick up the points needed to survive. After Villa came and demolished the team and ended their lengthy travails away from Villa Park. Ending your poor away record an antidote inevitably is a visit to Carrow Rd this has proved to be the case too often in the last few years to be just a coincidence. Next up is Man Utd who are on the back of a disastrous run both home and away and even lost at Newcastle. Must be delirious that next is a visit to City. Fail to beat Utd might leave us adrift at the bottom. Which may be the case with the forthcoming visit of Watford in November who similarly are having a tough time soon to end at Carrow Rd. The other fixtures are Sheff Utd making a good fist of the PL. Arsenal who we regularly struggle against. Wolves who have recently taken care of Man C at their fortress a visit to leaky Norwich hold no terrors. And finally this year a visit from Tottenham who again usually come away from City with the points. Taking into account the likelihood of the accumulation or otherwise of points from the above fixtures instead and of being satisfied with our current points tally we need to be afraid very afraid of where we might be before the return of significant defensive returnees or recruits by the end of the year. We must rely on miracle results as Man City to get the points needed to avoid fan despair how likely is that with our defensive frailties. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThorpeCanary 71 Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) 3 points the difference between making a good fist of it and needing to be afraid very afraid? Fine margins. Edited October 7, 2019 by ThorpeCanary poor choice of words Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wcorkcanary 4,334 Posted October 7, 2019 Pete, why bother, a not particularly good Newcastle did a number on man u, we may well do the same, we may not. Watford are beatable, doesn't mean we will or wont. Your post is miserablist speculation at best. I reckon most supporters knew ,even before this season started, that it'd be tough going, what's new. Nothing in your post. As boblozo says... 'cheer up' , life is more fun with a sunny disposition. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
