[Albion] Is Saturday our first “Must win” game of the season?

[the right footed denilson]

The biggies are Saints and Cardiff but you fear they'll pick up points elsewhere, so yes it is.

 

[Honky Tonx]

YES. Lose then alarm bells will start ringing. Management questions in the summer.

 

[pb21]

Must not lose, morale would take a significant hit if so.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Psychologically we need a win badly.

As soon as possible.

So, yes - it is *must win*.

 

[Sussexscots]

Yes. Need to win our home games, especially against this lot after they won tonight.

Andone and Bissouma will surely start.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

That is the answer as defeat wont hurt us unless Cardiff win at Wolves and Southampton win at United.

You keep repeating this, and it’s utter, utter nonsense! We’ve about 5 winnable games left, and we probably need to win 3 of them. Of course wasting the biggest opportunity of the lot would HURT us, for goodness sake.

 

[banjo]

**** superstition. We’re gonna win Saturday.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Not beating clearly the worst team in the division would be a psychological hammer blow.

 

[ferring seagull]

No, the first must win game was several weeks ago !

 

[BensGrandad]

It won't if we beat both Cardiff, the most vital and Southampton so they are the big ones not Saturday although a win would be a distinct bonus for us but not desperate if we don't.

Why do we have only 5 winnable games left all games are winnable with the right attitude and application.

 

[Weststander]

Wasn’t this said before Burnley at home?

 

[Weststander]

YES. Lose then alarm bells will start ringing. Management questions in the summer.

Squad quality a more pressing need.

 

[doogie004]

No, not must win as we have plenty of other potentially winnable home games after Saturday to get us out of trouble.

However this forum will be “must not visit” on Saturday night if we do lose.

You r joking right? If we dont beat Huddersfield Saturday then we deserve to go gown and hughton sacked !

I thought Cardiff might win tonight. The table would have been more worrying if that happened. Would have put even more pressure on 3 points needed Saturday.

 

[The Rivet]

1983, FA cup final + relegation.

 

[jamie the seagull]

No...Cardiff and Fulham away were

 

[The Man from Del Monte]

Yes.

What?

Cardiff...we lost to them in Cardiff....Southampton..we were two nil down and scraped a draw...Bournemouth are a far better side than us...Newcastle are on fire at the moment. Man City are the best side in the world ....remind me where the potential games are?

 

[Lethargic]

That is the answer as defeat wont hurt us unless Cardiff win at Wolves and Southampton win at United.

Wrong, wrong and wrong if we can't beat these teams at home where are we gonna pick up the required points we need, do you figure we will beat Man City and Bournemouth? We need points to stay up and those games are our best opportunity.

I’m beginning to fall out of love with the football recently I haven’t even tried getting the day off work if a game falls on my shift on. 4 friends have now decided to not renew their season tickets and will downgrade to just members and keep the loyalty points they have and just go to a few games that we could possibly win eg not a top 8 side. Part of me is thinking do I give it another season along with my boy or do I chuck it and get some golf membership instead, seriously considering it especially if we will capitulate against huddersfield. Have until mid March to decide I wonder if others will. It’s a shame but it’s either the team, Chris or just the premiership that is so so boring ohh along with no bottle tops now
