10 Points behind Lincoln

[Sincilbanks]

This new learning amazes me Sir Bedevere. Explain to me again how sheep’s bladders may be employed to prevent earthquakes.

STOP IT. It's all getting a bit silly!

Help, help I'm being repressed!

 

[clanfordimp]

Blame Ron Atkinson and his......'stickability'

What about Ian Dowies
'bouncebackability'

I think it's Diag Zone actually, probably referring to a point in the field where you hit the long diagonal over the full back...

POMO is Point of Maximum Opportunity, a common phrase in modern football coaching.

On the Cowley video Nicky clearly says he likes to encourage Diagonality!!

Clearly a Harry Potter fan.

Shankley?

I never knew he managed Grimsby !

No, that was Bill Skanky.

I'm guessing Wyke has gone from an abomination not fit to wear the shirt, to OMG get him a new contract or we'll lose him in the summer, in the space of the last month.

Promotion Close for Sunderland...

Not a newspaper headline, but the name of a road on the site of the old Roker Park ground. If it's not close enough, perhaps there's not enough Midfield Drive.

10 points behind is now only 3 points behind with a better goal difference. For all their moaning they are now one of the five real challengers for an automatic promotion spot and have a Cup Final to play.

Mind you, the pub team are still up there too.

 

[NottyImp]

They're on a bit of a charge at the moment.

Sunderland aren’t doin too bad either

 

[Skip155]

They're one of the form horses and they're doing a great job of beating the 'weaker' sides. Only 1 of their last 8 have been v a current top half team. 6 of their next 7 are v top half teams.

Obviously we've struggled against these teams recently so not diminishing their run - just an observation.

 

[plumbob]

If only we could have got that 25 point cushion.

 

[Davidimp]

Wonder how good they'd be without the dynamic duo?
We've lost Anderson Walsh, Bridcutt and Grant.
Still doing OK, especially yesterday

 

[Bazzzer]

10 points behind is now only 3 points behind...

At the start of this thread, Sunlun (10 points behind) had two games in hand so had dropped 4 more points than the Imps.

Now they have dropped only 3 more points than the Imps. They haven't caught up very much.

 

[bristolimp]

Will they have a slump too?

I think there are lots of twists and turns ahead of everyone

Tuesdays Games
Peterborough v Hull
Portsmouth v Sunderland
We could do with a Portsmouth win
&
Peterborough winning or a draw
Also us winning of course

 

[Bazzzer]

Will they have a slump too?

Obviously, they will imagine that their slump was early on and they will now go on from strength to strength, hardly dropping a point. Perhaps they will... we'll see.

for balance, they have already had their fair share of absentees. injured centre backs, o'nein, gooch. mcgeady wasn't even picked by the previous manager - 15 games.

 

[Davidimp]

Still think their manager only gets jobs cos of who daddy is.
With the players they have any half decent manager should have them top but the place is soap opera just like Newcastle, so the self destruct button is never far away.
