• All - you probably don't need to be told, but....
    Despite the Admins' best efforts some spammers/scammers/scalpers are getting through the entry system and are, astonishingly, in possession of FA Cup tickets that they, astonishingly, don't want!

    It's probably a scam, and either way it's a criminal offence under section 166 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, (as amended by the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006) to offer or expose tickets for sale.

    Please DO NOT engage with these people - please REPORT any threads/posts offering tickets for sale in case we've not caught them.
    Thanks!

Does anyone remember sheep shagging Derby County? (STILL the worst team in history!)

Burnley will score about 8 goals next season if they go up.

Next season will be tricky for them if they don’t bring in some good new players as I think Wrexham and Birmingham will be mid table at worst

Burnley have dropped a right bollocks there... Pigs even worse. Could do with a Plymouth win tonight to tighten that screw, though I think Derby have done enough now.

They do. Problem is Stoke have probably done enough to be safe by then. We needed Derby to not go 4 unbeaten with 3 wins and a point against top 3. They're staying up.

They are out the drop zone on goal difference but there is 5 points between 17th & 23rd & Derby play 4 of them. There is no way you can say with certainty they are staying up because every point they drop somebody is going to make ground on them. You could argue it's in their hands but I think they have the absolute nightmare fixtures because they can't afford to lose any of them.

It's gonna go to the final day regardless.

When you put the kind of recent form together that they have, from the position they were in, I think it's highly unlikely they drop. Hope the wheels fall off, but 13 points from the last 15 says they're staying up to me unfortunately.

Ok but form does not last forever. Everyone down there is in good form, and they also don't have 13 from the last 15, they lost to Swansea last week.

You should be putting money on them staying up if you are so confident, you will get good odds. They are currently joint odds with Cardiff to go down so the bookies can't call it.

I don't gamble, but if I did I would and also have a bet on Arsenal cocking up their next leg. Because Arsenal.

Obviously I hope Derby drop, but I believe that ship sailed last weekend.

Stoke at home?

What could possibly go wrong?

Ah.
I remember my nephew saying, "Don't worry, Swansea won't win by 6 goals to better our goal difference, and we are at home and Sansea are away." I reminded him that he needed to take into account how a loss would affect things. I'd seen Forest turn a drama into a crisis enough times to think a 5 goal advantage before the last game, meant very little. And so it was, Forest lost 4-1 at home to Stoke and Swansea won 4-1 away at Reading. 😭

Hopefully Stoke can do the same against Derby on the last day this season and it can put them down.

Think they'll be alright now thanks to those 4 wins, Cardiff have the much trickier run in.

Could be interesting if they beaten by Luton but I can't see it.

Actually, thinking about a move from the CG. It would be tough at first wherever we might go, but imagine finishing up at a waste land like the Sheep Dip? Not only the souless bowl, but the surrounding area. I've only been once and that was enough.

Its not that bad, you can take in a game, buy some shitty fast food, pick up your mobility car and finish with your tea, a pint and a line in the Merlin.

Take my kid trampolining across the road and take myself to Tim Hortons after for a £3 breakfast deal. Quite enjoy my trips to pride park nowadays.
