Would that be the 11 desperados who did a good job of hiding at Molyneux last weekend? We'll get a a draw at best and more likely a Villa win. Agbonlahor still has quality. On the upside, only 2 more games and you'll be gone forever - you promised.

The best way to get through this game would be to drink 11 desperados.

Don't get me wrong - I hope I'm wrong and we stay up but you promised to leave if we went down. Are you a man of your word?

You said we'd stay up easily and we're too good to go down and we can relax so many times I've lost count! Here we are, with 2 games to go, and we're still in deep trouble. Where's the realism?

You have been telling us all season that we should "relax" because we would avoid relegation "easily" "comfortably". No way did you expect we would be favourites to go down with 2 games to go. It will be a miracle if we survive, you never thought we would have needed one. This little problem is of your own making.
Stuart Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Such a ridiculous notion that we will lose an intelligent, articulate poster over a bet that is only one sided. What consideration have you put forward, Jim? Yes, the uber positive bravado has been annoying - particularly the patronising tone of it - but I think their should be some kind of commuting of this sentence. At worst, a new account and a fresh start. At best, let's stop being silly and realise that when the crunch comes we will need a Jim and a Mercer to keep the club alive.
Rover_Shaun Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 The situation is far graver than the future of a slightly unhinged poster.

I was in the process of putting a post together but you beat me to it. There would IMO need to be a referendum on this MB before any possible MEXIT.....and relegation is not as yet confirmed. Lets keep this thread to more important stuff. The Villa game. Edit: I prefer Willy Wonka's view of a Mugwump: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/apr/27/mugwump-what-is-insult-boris-johnson-corbyn-only-use
philipl Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Great preview. Only two outcomes are possible. 1) We win (and next week becomes a hell of worry/anticipation/permutations) 2) We get relegated (OK on paper we might still not be down but we will be in reality) A bonus would be a big win to make survival on goal difference a possibility.
AllRoverAsia Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 A match thread is not the same without Chaddy and his team selection and tactics. How the hell do we contain Kodjia? or Agbonlahor's when he comes on for a late cameo? Come on Chaddy what do you think Mowbray should do?
Backroom Tom Posted April 28, 2017 Backroom Posted April 28, 2017 I agree we should keep Mercer Maybe a permanent signature / avatar of the boards choosing?
Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted April 28, 2017 Author Moderation Lead Posted April 28, 2017 Mercer and Jim should just go for a drink together and smooth things over. Like many on here, I bet they'd actually get on like a house on fire in person. Plus, based on his postings on here, I'll bet Mercer can teach any of us a few things about the booze!

Mulgrew is big and good in the air. My big worry is if villa score early the heads will drop like against barnsley. Where it becomes open season. If these player's can't get up for a game like this they shouldn't be out on the field. See you all at Ewood tomorrow
