We'll look good, albeit without any strength up front.
They'll get a goal.
Freedman will do fck all to change things around.
We'll lose.
Rinse and repeat.

Imagine the scenario .... those at Megson's final game will have a head start .... we perform moderately, pretty enough but no bite, we let in a goal after 75 minutes and a resounding sigh of unsurprised disappointment emits from the unanimated 'crowd' of 13,756.

There's the difference.

That and Megson would play a more attacking line up.

More to the point, there's some things you probably don't want to try whilst free-falling...

This is a must win game.

I think we will scrape a 1-0.

I reckon we'll get a 1-1. Charlton will scrape a win and Millwall will get stuffed; we'll stay in 20th but another point closer to oblivion and Charlton'll have a game in hand on us.
That's not a leopard!

We'll win.

This will be seen by Dougie and a tiny minority of people who should have been committed long ago that its all, in actual fact, working. Which will lead to a discussion where I'll use the words context (such as in "the worst start we've had since Jesus was still an apprentice carpenter"), circumstance (we're 20th in the league in the February 18 months after he took over), and nuance (Bournemouth are even shitter than us and we're at home).

Must win game, as are all the next few. Not because we have anything positive to play for, but because we've dug ourselves into a hole of our own making.

Yes I think we'll win. I'm going to stop looking at the whole season now and just enjoy what points we can salvage from this mess.

2-2 Freedman's post match chuckle will be along the lines of 'my tactics where fine, if we would have actually had a shot at goal in the 2nd half we could have won it, if we carry on like that I'm sure we'll win a game before the season ends, the fans need to get a grip and be realistic, how can they expect me to compete with the likes of Bournemouth with the squad I have'.

v Bournemouth...just about sums it all up really. Is there any real reason we shouldn't win five or six-nil?

I can think of just one, Tango, but mentioning it'd just be monotonous.

a) Bournemouth will be doing their level best to prevent us scoring.

b) Less than 1:200 Football League matches produce a score of 5-0 or more.*

c) It's the second Saturday in February.

I bet it's one of these. Go on, it's one of these isn't it?!

:wink:
