Would we be better off if we did,y play tomorrow

Recommended Posts

Been thinking we have had "should we lose,should we draw should we win" threads on a Friday.

Would it be better if we didn''t play and then got one of the games in hand back?

They according to some posters are definately worth three points so.......

Good thinking Batman[Y]

Let''s keep sabotaging the sacred turf and get our home games called off until we have so many games in hand we can''t fail to get enough points[;)]

Butler - I''m beginning to understand that they''re only a sure-fire three points if other teams have them. They''re useless to us apparently so we may as well lose them at the allotted time[:S]

Following some comments it is possible that could be the situation but if the thread is pulled far enough we might just unravel the truth.

Of course it matters. We can have these points safely secured until we possibly lose them or not.

Therefore we are better off having games to play than having played and possibly not secured the full value of the postponed game.

Just think how good tomorrow could be Beau.

A steady drive to Norwich, couple of drinks, sit in the sunshine for two hours, another drink (perhaps) and a steady drive back. No stress, no hassel and still have the possibility of three points waiting.

So what we effectively have is a Schrodinger''s cat situation. The cat (ie our potential points) is sealed in the box with the poison (relegation). While the box is sealed we don''t whether or not the cat is alive or dead (ie whether we''re a Championship side or a League One side). That''s very profound, Butler. I hadn''t thought about our plight in terms of quantum mechanics, but it''s all becoming clear now.[:P][;)]

Sorry if this post is just slightly further in the curriculum than you have reached yet.

I am sure quantum football and parallel universe teams will reach you soon[:D]

I''m amazed at how many people didn''t pick up the joke. Especially when you said "According to some people they are worth 3 points" [:|]

Ok it is not Tommy Cooper but the clue is that a game in hand is said to be worth three points.

This is a humourous dig at those many posters who assume that the games in hand that other clubs have will automatically be worth three points and doom us to relegation.  Yet if we have a game in hand it is worth nothing.  It is a good point.  There are no easy games and no guaranteed three pointers.  Games in hand are an opportunity not a guarantee.
