Nexstar Posted 3 April, 2012 Posted 3 April, 2012 Been done to death already and everybody concluded they'd take defeat on Saturday for guaranteed promotion.
Toomer Posted 3 April, 2012 Posted 3 April, 2012 No!!!!!!!!!!!!! last six games will be 3 wins and three draws IMO starting with a 3-1 home win against the Skates, win at Palace, draw with Reading and the two Boroughs and finish with a home win against Cov.
SaintBobby Posted 3 April, 2012 Posted 3 April, 2012 I'd definitely take it. I care much more about promotion and winning the division than about beating Portsmouth. In anything approaching reality though, the two are positively not negatively correlated. So, I'm not quite sure which fairy godmother I "make the deal with"
Jonnyboy Posted 3 April, 2012 Author Posted 3 April, 2012 Mods, pls lock, I put it down to the Lambo anxiety, soz.
trousers Posted 3 April, 2012 Posted 3 April, 2012 Would you take it? 1 defeat in exchange for 5 victories? Yes. Of course we'd take that. Goes without saying. Simple logic.
Chez Posted 3 April, 2012 Posted 3 April, 2012 I feel sick just thinking about losing 1-4 to the skates. Please refrain for putting the possibility into my mind.
scotty Posted 3 April, 2012 Posted 3 April, 2012 Mods, pls lock, I put it down to the Lambo anxiety, soz. Stand your ground Jonny, ffs. Its a fair question to ask, you felt like asking it and you asked it, so what? My fourpence worth, I'd swallow the bitter pill of losing to the skate c*nts if that would guarantee us auto promotion. But we wont have to go through that scenario, hopefully
CB Fry Posted 3 April, 2012 Posted 3 April, 2012 I think I'd rather drown. More peaceful than being burned alive.
Saint_lambden Posted 3 April, 2012 Posted 3 April, 2012 a) We won't lose 4-1 to them. b) Even if we did, our confidence would be so shot that I doubt we'd go on and get promotion, let alone win the nest 5 games.
sfcuk fan Posted 3 April, 2012 Posted 3 April, 2012 I think I'd rather drown. More peaceful than being burned alive. This. I have several skate friends who will rip the **** out of me if we lose ! Anyway, I quite like it in the championship winning most weeks rather than getting dicked and just surviving in the prem !
Chez Posted 4 April, 2012 Posted 4 April, 2012 Anyway, I quite like it in the championship winning most weeks rather than getting dicked and just surviving in the prem !wonder if Forest fans were consoling themselves with possibility after their play off defeat last season?
Norm Posted 4 April, 2012 Posted 4 April, 2012 Been done to death already and everybody concluded they'd take defeat on Saturday for guaranteed promotion. Agree with Nexstar. Promotion is the aim!
LGTL Posted 4 April, 2012 Posted 4 April, 2012 No, I wouldn't take it. We won't need another 5 wins anyway.
Barry the Badger Posted 4 April, 2012 Posted 4 April, 2012 Hypothetical question. Which would you choose??? 1 - Saints win on Saturday, with Rickie Lambert scoring the winner, but shortly after the final whistle a crocodile comes onto the pitch and bites off one of his toes. Desperate to help you run onto the pitch but the crocodile enlists the help of a Hyena which chases you until you die. Saints go on to win the league. 2 - Saints lose 73-1 on Saturday, shortly after the final whistle a crocodile comes onto the pitch and you run on and tackle it before it can attack Rickie, you then fight off the Hyena and are proclaimed a hero and given a hug by Steve De Ridder. Saints go on to lose in the playoffs. Just interested.

Barry the Badger Posted 4 April, 2012 Posted 4 April, 2012 will I be banned from the ground and given a £1000 fine for coming onto the playing area? Only in option 1, but you will be dead so don't factor it in too much.
Barry the Badger Posted 5 April, 2012 Posted 5 April, 2012 FFS!!! Give it a rest please. It's important that you decide whether you prefer to be dead and promoted or alive and a hero but not promoted. Imagine if the crocodile came on the pitch and you hadn't got your head clear on what you would do in that situation. Your dithering could cost us promotion.
Barry the Badger Posted 5 April, 2012 Posted 5 April, 2012 would you prefer.....no legs. or no arms..? If I had no legs I wouldn't be able to stand in the northam, so I would struggle to see. But if I had no arms I wouldn't be able to smash those backboards along with our songs. On reflection, I will go for no arms and use my head to hit the backboards.

Jonnyboy Posted 5 April, 2012 Author Posted 5 April, 2012 Surely the OP wasn't a choice between two bad things, but more would you take a bad thing in exchange for a good thing. I'm sure we all have had such experiences in our lives already...
Barry the Badger Posted 5 April, 2012 Posted 5 April, 2012 Surely the OP wasn't a choice between two bad things, but more would you take a bad thing in exchange for a good thing. So was mine. Would you take a bad thing, death, in exchange for a good thing, promotion.

Jonnyboy Posted 5 April, 2012 Author Posted 5 April, 2012 Suck Westwood off in exchange for promotion? What's that noise Homer makes? "Urrrrrrrrrrrgh"
