Coventry game on wednesday

[Lord Bos of Eckington.]

Losing last minute to Chelsea .

Being 10 points clear from relegation after beating West Ham at home

Just missing out on a Inter City Fairs Cup place

Don Givens penalty .

As Wilder has said , but not in so many words . If any club can fuck it up , it's the Blades.

Keep calm but not if , buts and maybe stupidity .

If they lose one of their next 2 (or draw both) and we beat Coventry we would only need to beat Northampton for promotion to be guaranteed

Wouldn't even need to do that. Just better Fleetwoods result

See Bolton expect over 20,000 for Chessy game. £5 a ticket has had them coming out of the woodwork like their piggy cousins.

Their official twitter says Bolton have sold 22K with Chezzie sellling 300 tickets as at close of play today.
But tickets are still available and on sale tomorrow.

So Bolton are expecting around 24K tomorrow, an increase of 10K on their normal crowd.

If we lose to Coventry, Fleetwood could be 7 points behind us this time next week. A seven point gap is still pretty comfortable, but if we lost another game that gap could be down to four, which isn't so comfortable.

I'm confident, mostly, but still having the odd moment of doubt.

What with Fleetwood winning and us losing our goal difference advantage would have gone. Looks like a few more twists and turns before the end of the season. Could turn to shit after all.

I'm a selfish twat and as I couldn't get a ticket for Northampton (fair play to all those going) I hope Vale away on Good Friday is "P-Day." There'd be a nice bit of symmetry with our last promotion if it was...Cardiff away in 2006 was on Good Friday as well...and that was April 14th too...

Edit for the pedants...I know we needed to wait until the 15th in 2006 for it to be confirmed...but we did our bit on Good Friday the 14th that year. Would be nice to do it again in front of 4,500 travelling blades...

Reality moment as I read this listening to Led Zep 2, 5 pints in the pub and midway between bottle half empty and half full.

I'm really glad we are where we are but a jolt of perspective.. Are we really talking about the mighty Fleetwood and us in the same breath...?

Yep that sounds arrogant but folks we need to wake up a bit and realise that with what we've done this year the dose of Fleetwood's as rivals have to go... Never again will we be like this..

Bolton are letting their fans in for £5. Not bad for anyone who wants to go and silently cheer for Chez Vegas.

 

[Cheets]

I thought Scunny could still catch us?

 

[JordoBlade]

Personally would prefer to see us to clinch promotion at home. More fans there to revel in it.


That said after six years I can live with it being away!!!!

My sentiments entirely. Gaining promotion at home would be brilliant.

 

[Robby Blade]

Could be interesting having a pitch invasion after the beam back don't you think?

They'd be a line of police horses stopping us getting to the big screen.

Be funny if Bolton bottled it in front of the biggest crowd in the world.
