A point on Sunday and we're out of bottom 3

[PurpleCanary 5,580]

Tomorrow at Stamford Bridge will be the equivalent of a disorganised rabble wielding pointed sticks against a highly disciplined force armed with the latest bullet-firing technology. Not unlike Rorke''s Drift...

How about the Rorke''s Drift test match, 100 years ago as it happens.

Im a positive person and i have believed we would do it, even during the dark times under Hughton, and my positivity was at its highest after the Liverpool game.

But lets face it, its over. Sunderland could get a win today at Man Utd if theyve got half the squad out. And we will lose at Chelsea you can bet on that.

If Sunderland do lose today they will most likely beat West Brom next wednesday and that will be that.

 We can still overhaul Villa.

[Yorkshire Canary 118]

All common sense, form , wisdom, logic etc says we are down, but its never over until its over

[Sussexyellow 55]

Agree Yorkshire,

In my optimistic moments I see us in with a shout of another 4 points. Trouble is I do not think 36 points will be enough.

We need a Roy of the Rovers totally improbable two wins.

If Aston Villa don''t win on Saturday and we get a point on Sunday then they are knees deep in it too.

[Mr Jenkins 0]

Quite right me old Cobber.

Yep, that is about our best shot. But even that scenario relies on Villa getting zilch from their last three games. A point anywhere and even if we get 4, they stay above us on goal difference. Now that would hurt!

The only other option is for Sunderland to suddenly lose the form they have just found.

I was more referencing a Monty Python sketch (John Cleese: "Ooh, ooh, ooh; want to learn how to defend yourself against pointed sticks, do we?") than trying to be historically accurate...

That''s the ticket Purple! Don''t inject all your positivity in one go. Keep your powder dry.

[Sussexyellow 55]

Purple - maybe we are not ready for the pointed sticks. We should take the field at the Bridge armed with the fruit!

[quote user="Tony Cottee Woz Ere . . ."]Delusion 1000. I can only imagine Jenkins hasn''t followed Norwich for many years or he''d know how it goes by now. We will get hammered, no if''s, but''s, or maybe''s. Sunderland will get a result at Man Utd. They are bang average and were there for the taking last week, the fact we lost 4-0 to that side shows how truly woeful we are.[/quote]

Looks like I''m spot on again.

[Carra Rud 17]

[quote user="Jenkins"]Would you like to explain how getting behind our team is stirring up the SH1T now Carra?.

What an amazing post to see on a Norwich forum.

Irony at its very best.[/quote]You obviously aren''t stupid and nor am I... I know a wind-up when I see it...I see you took exception to my post as if it was personally addressed to you... ah well, I take it you have multiple accounts?Morty gave the info I was after Brienne, thanks for that - just interested - no agenda, if you want to continue the conversation about irony feel free to PM me anytime [:D]

[quote user="......and Smith must score."][quote user="Jenkins"]....a point on Sunday will see us out of the bottom three.

Maybe the title of your post ?

Cardiff stuffed, Fulham stuffed, Sunderland hang on for a win.

[crabbycanary 2]

The title of the post was of course total irony, in that everyone was predicting Sunderland to win today.................

[Sussexyellow 55]

Amongst all this misery Purple your loganberry quip is still making me chuckle.

Thanks for getting me to look on the bright side of life!
