[Football] Have we blown it?

[NorthstandRacoon]

Got a horrible feeling about today, I know the big clubs suit us and we have a good record against them and Arse’ but feel like Monday may have bolloxed our season, OR, am I BEDWETTING?

 

[Stat Brother]

Soon, but not yet.

 

[JonnyComeEarly]

Not blown it but not made it easy

Biggest concern is the squad being SO thin now

Still looking good for top 6

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

No no no. We will first have a period of hope where we truly believe. THEN we will blow it.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Everton game was a huge loss. But then again ManU game was a massive win. We'll finish where we deserve to finish really. Whatever happens from here on in, it's been one helluva season

 

[Acker79]

Can't it be both? Blown (the best) european places (?) but also bedwetting because finishing in the top 8 is still a major achievement for us given the experience level of our squad.

It’s not the recent results which are bothering me, it’s our injuries and ridiculous schedule.

 

[Stat Brother]

The next 5 games will be season defining.

 

[Mustafa II]

Anything can happen really.

We might surprise ourselves by picking up points againt Arsenal, Newcastle and/or City... but then again we could implode against Southampton.

I personally think we're gonna miss out, sadly... squad is too thin, too many fixtures, most of which are difficult.

Let's just take it one game at a time and get behind the team.

 

[Rambo]

No no no. We will first have a period of hope where we truly believe. THEN we will blow it.

This is the way.

 

[Affy]

A draw tonight puts us in a much better place. City will be a super tough game but a draw against Newcastle and villa and a win against Southampton and everything should be ok.

Id almost rather we rested key players today to then have a right go at Newcastle, who are inferior to Arsenal by quite a distance IMO, it’s not that simple though.

They’ve had a week off nearly now. I’d say we need to go for it. Hard. We have a good record against arsenal and, yes, they are arguably the better team, but St James’ Park is horrible play to play for the away team. Unlikely 3 points tonight and everything is suddenly super once again.

Probably saving the first Dicking Around At The Back epic fail of the season for just such an occasion

The longer the season goes on without a dicking about failure the more likely I think it'll happen.

Hello Villa my old friend.

Obviously.

I already regret buying my ticket for this one.

(* I think what we do is 'fannying around')

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

It’s not the recent results which are bothering me, it’s our injuries and ridiculous schedule.

Our upcoming ridiculous schedule is a consequence of a ridiculously lighter league schedule than other teams around us before now, Strolling around in the sunshine against Grimsby and postponements because of the success of others eg Newcastle gave us a comparatively easy schedule. Now it’s payback and we have to turn those games in hand into actual points. If we don’t then I incline towards the opinion of others that we will finish in the correct position regardless as what goes around comes around.

Guy breaks down in the arctic ice on his skidoo, mechanic takes hours to get to him, by which time the guys beard round his lips and chin is white with frost all over it. Mechanic says to the guy, "You've blown a seal", the guy says "No I haven't, its just frost, honest!"

 

[Hovegull]

Everytime Spurs keep losing, I continue the hope. It’s not just our scores - it’s everyone else. It’s such a fight at both ends, with nothing decided this late on. Scores are very hard to predict.

 

[KZNSeagull]

We haven't blown anything. As RDZ rightly pointed out, the target was top 10 and we will achieve that. Everything else is a bonus.

Just enjoy it and change your sheets.
