Midlands Yellow 4,118 Posted January 13 Should be a lively affair with Coventry starting proceedings at home to Leicester at 12.30. Could run them close, 2.2 draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,733 Posted January 13 Nah, Leicester win for me - they’ll just be too good for Cov. The binner game will be interesting, their form is not good and when you look at the highlights of their games v Leicester and QPR they should have lost both, with blatant pens not awarded in both games.

Creedence Clearwater Couto 1,312 Posted January 13 Coventry are absolutely flying, and I expect them to sew up another playoff spot. West Brom too… I can really see the top six pulling clear of the rest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sonyc 5,541 Posted January 13 Well I'm completely enjoying the Sunderland game. One really decent team too. 0-1. Wheels coming off the bin van? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dylanisabaddog 5,057 Posted January 13 Extraordinary goal by Silva at Newcastle but I'm switching to the Ipswich game. They've just gone a goal down to Sunderland and I just can't stand the thought of another hour of Ally McCoist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There’s a third of the season to go and anything can happen Clearly we’d have to be far more consistent - which is where the transfer window might be key - but isn’t part of being a supporter to think of what positives might happen rather than being doom and gloom and miserable all the time?

RobJames 905 Posted January 13 We need another 37 points to be around 6th. That's a total that would give us 81 points were it to be over the season. Not undoable. There is no advantage to finishing third other than the thought you may be a better team than 6th. 75 points would suggest a minimum number needed. Something to be achieved by winning as many points as possible. Three last night suggest it might be possible..........just might be. I doubt the top six will be the top six come May, so at this stage it is pretty academic about who wins or loses, other than us. So put away your phones, stop stamping your little feet and get someone to put your toys back in the pram. We have been here before, and will do so again. Genuine supporters know the good times will be back - so my advice to the whiners is in Kiplings thoughts "If you can meet with Triumph and Disasaster And treat those two impostors just the same; Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it, And which is more you’ll be a Man, my son" and he should know, given the amount of cakes he sells Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Binners get so many crosses into dangerous areas, the one thing I can say about us is that when we do get one in everyone is so shocked we generally score. Oddly, when I tried to type in Binners it kept changing to Bummers Edited January 13 by Nik Vawn 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
