Who are we likely to lose to in our miserable 2nd round defeat?

Tough draw but I still think we will get through.

Curiosity · **Posted:** Fri Dec 06, 2013 20:35

B and D are the two hardest ones.

Who is 'we' in that table? England?!

If group H plays group G qualifiers in round 2, they will get as far as losing to Portugal or Germany.

I have a sneaking suspicion every team in that group will end up on 4 points...

Boom! Burton dispatched. Roll on Liverpool in the 4th Round!

Gotta wonder what is going on at Southampton. Cortese and Pochettino have done some great stuff there.

So pleasing to witness Man Utd's empire crumbling in such spectacular fashion.

Moyes is such a dull manager.

Well, things are getting a bit ridiculous at Bournemouth, but in a good way. Five wins in a row, two points off the Championship play-offs with five games left. We've just beaten QPR and Reading who are both above us.

Do we dare to dream??!?

Na Blackburn are only 4 points off the playoffs now and on a run.

On a run? You're doing ok. Bournemouth are on a run!

I really hope Bournemouth beat QPR to/in the play offs!

Also, Burnley need 5 points from 5 games to achieve promotion! I can safely say I didn't see that coming at the beginning of the season.

Unbeaten in 7 I think. And we just beat QPR and Ipswich who are above us.

Thanks for beating QPR.

Would love to see Burnley get promoted, though I'd be amazed if they could stay up.

Bournemouth going up would be absolutely hilarious.

The season is a failure if we don't top 100 points.

I'm still pretty sure you're okay to go up.

We're looking over our shoulders a bit though!

I ain't counting any chickens!

myp · **Posted:** Sat Apr 12, 2014 20:07

If we'd scored 11 more goals today we'd be 6th right now.

Are Liverpool going to win?

It's hilarious. None of them dare speak of it out loud. "One game at a time" is a mantra.

But... it's looking more than possible

They're definitely the favourites now

Congrats. Looks like Eddie Howe coming back to Bournemouth didn't just help us.

I think we're out of the playoff picture now. We've drawn 2 and lost 1 of the last three games. Needed to beat Ipswich today.

nickachu · **Posted:** Mon Apr 21, 2014 21:22

We're unbeaten in 11 now. 2 points off the playoffs, there's a slight glimmer of hope for us.

nickachu · **Posted:** Sat May 03, 2014 14:14

Well Brighton beat us to the playoffs.
Still happy ending the season on a 12 match unbeaten run, if we played like that all season we'd probably have been up there contesting for automatic promotion.

myp · **Posted:** Sat May 03, 2014 14:15

10th! Above Forest! I feel giddy.

This Van Gaal chappy sounds awesome. Can't wait for the YouTube hilarity.

Next weekend my city will be packed with Spaniards. It will be Easter all over again. I would have preferred if Chelsea got to the finals.

And i'm still depressed about that Europa league finals. Worst refereeing I've ever seen

Wow, just wow! What an amazing waste of money, but they aren't corrupt, no sir!

Wow, utterly dramatic champions league final. Glad i watched it.

Actually i went downtown to watch it on a pub because i expected something from all the spanish fans that packed the whole place, but it wasn't much different from watching at home. Quite boring football fans. A bit like us, i guess.
