It's fucking happening people!

[WhiteHawk]

We could be 9 points clear with 2 to play and we'd still find a way to fuck it up.

 

[Lawrence]

Unless my maths is failing me...15 points and we're up. Fleetwood can only get to 92. In our last 8 we've won 5 and drawn 3...repeat that again and we're playing championship football next season.

Don't worry, belive me we won't need 15 points! Both Fleetwood and Bolton will drop points 'United will be promoted on the 4th April!

 

[Bartleby]

It is not done yet! Do not tempt the evil gods of fate, 2012 still hurts. Each game as it comes. UTB!

 

[Rodders]

My worst nightmare occurred today, got caught short just before kick off. To my surprise the bog was cleanish, there was paper in the roller, the door locked but to spoil the experience the flusher was bust. Pity the next user.

Wow you're a brave man. Happened to me once, Ipswich home April 2009. It came on in the second half, didn't dare attempt to even venture into the bogs with the state they'd be in so had to nip it off best I could then get to the pub as quickly as posible.

FA deny our promotion because it's unfair to relegate Rotherham and their huge fan base and a club that has a great tradition. (Not sure of what the tradition is but hey, my tradition is stopping SUFC from succeeding under any circumstances. Trevor Brooking)

 

[TJB.]

I can't do it yet. I join in when we sing 'The Blades are going up', but even though the fans were superb for the last 5 minutes of the game, I can't say I wasn't shitting myself.

Decent enough side and the game was a bit of a reality check for me. Long way to go yet.

Looking good, though

We're also top of the League's 10 game form table after yesterday and the bookies have us at 1/50 for the title, why is it we can't relax and believe it just yet !

Of course it is happening, now it is only a matter of which game it becomes mathematically impossible for 3rd place to over come our points total. I can not see the 3rd place team getting more that 86 points, and still think that the Port Vale game will be the defining game of confirmation of promotion. However the Bradford game would be the ideal game to gain promotion, at home in the BDTBL, that would be a fitting reward for the loyal home fans.

Live on Sky, early kickoff, can stay out all day after ... no work next day ...... could be an epic session

1/1000 for us to be promoted so they're pretty confident!

If Bolton lose their game in hand I think that will be pretty my that we will be effectively 10 points clear

Honestly, there are no gods of fate or football gods. There is no otherworld link between what anyone posts on this forum and what happens on the pitch. (Although I have seen people post things about Corbyn which made his arms move in an odd way).

Wait that's readable, you need to sort that out for a start!

Footballing Gods?

 

[Kevincarterversion2.0]

While we are capable of the most hollywood of cock ups, I think it's looking very very very good now.

So yes, I'm starting to believe it really is fucking happening!

Looking on a Bolton forum earlier, there was a thread about their chances of promotion and we never got a mention in any post.

To me, that suggests one of two things:-

a) They think we'll implode and will drop out of the play offs
b) They think we're going to be promoted

I think my glass is close to half full.....

 

[Oohaah! Bob Bookah!]

The only thing that could prevent us from being promoted is World War III

Mind you the recent actions of North Korea could lead to military action by the United States and I think there is more chance on that happening than us not going up.

UTB!!

 

[Dronfield_Blade]

I think we will win promotion and the league now to be honest I think the win yesterday was vital with Boltons and Fleetwoods run ins I can't see them getting the points required to overtake us.
