What is the difference between a potential banana skin and a banana skin. Isn't the word potential superfluous?

You can slip on a banana skin. You can't slip on a potential one. Amarite?

 

[FriethBlade]

Looking at the season as a whole we have deftly side stepped most of those pesky discarded banana skins and will do today.

Straight on the front foot amd overwhelm them hopefully. Crowd has a big part to play today, if it doesn't go well let's get behind them rather than having a go or going quiet with lots of nervous chatter

 

[raimond]

Without wishing to tempt fate- yes, Wigan are a bit of a pain in the arse, yes they're fighting for their lives etc, yes we traditionally make things hard.

But- results have gone our way and time's running out for them chasing, their fixtures play to our favour, ours are practically all at home, we're in an FA Cup semi final, the finances are wank but this is our chance to put them right, even the sun's out FFS.... surely there's a shitload of relief and adrenaline in there for the players?? They should be desperate to get out there and put on a show- honest to god I'm going 5/6-0

Potential banana skin

Why?

 

[Bell4]

Wigan have lost 2 of their past 6 and beat QRR last time out. It won't be an easy game.

Swallownest Miners Welfare could beat QPR

 

[1973Blade]

I just hope he doesn't make too many changes. Winning today is the priority.

 

[Gin&Juice]

0-2

 

[1973Blade]

Sharp and Bogle start

[Greenwich Blade]

Unexpected trip home and managed to get 3 tickets to the game today. Excited for my 9 year old as she’s be asking to go for years.

My first home game in 15 years! I literally can’t wait for my senses to get filled up!!!!

That's actually made me feel a little emotional! Lovely stuff!

Potential banana skin

I actually have slipped on a banana skin once. Felt a right twat. Anyone else or just me?

 

[Blade58]

Lowe ill

 

[drblade]

Billy preferred to McBurnie??

 

[Corkblade]

I think mcburnie is carrying an injury

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Isn't every game a potential banana skin then?

Worked on a fruit stall down the local market when I was a teen and can confirm that squished peaches are more of a hazard.

Not to mention grapes on the shopfloor in Tesco.

Not me, unless you count Mario Kart

 

[Eric_Brooks]

Does the sell out mean we can now sell seats on the kop that we have been restricted on this season? Have they been sold?

 

[JayGreen17]

0-0 Luton, that will do, now come on Blades let stretch that lead.

 

[BangorBlade]

Millwall v Luton 0-0
Cum on Blades
Burnley win tonight be a good wkend

 

[Colombia Blade]

Hoping for a Burnley all weekend promotion party before they play us on Monday like when we played Fulham last season!

 

[Belvedere Blade]

FT @ The Den 0 0. Burnley will surely get Boro knowing that will seal them promotion back to PL. Come on BLADES get 3 points to increase gap on 2 below

I can see Bristol getting a result at home on Monday against Boro

Brizzle appear to be on holiday already so I wouldn't bet on that

 

[robbiez666]

I think mcburnie is carrying an injury

I presume he can't start two games in quick succession.

Going to be a bit one sided down the flanks

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Gain points on Luton today, and that's them totally out of the picture

 

[BangorBlade]

Brizzle appear to be on holiday already so I wouldn't bet on that

Hope not fingers crossed m8

anyone help a guy out in thailand with one of them water things?

 

[HuddersfieldBlade]

Once saw a banana skin on some ice in Leeds, stayed for 5 mins, no one slipped, felt cheated.
