trublusince1982 243 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Always want to win but everything considered a draw would be a good result 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc 280 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 While I would be over the moon with a win, I would take a draw on the heels of the trip to Ufa. A draw maintains our momentum and will make them continue to question their defence and what Brenda's plan is. Given where we are and the run of fixtures if someone had offered me qualification for the EL group stages and a draw at the Piggery I would have bitten their hand off a month ago. I'll stick with that. However a win would pop their balloon big time and full on panic would be there for all to see. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, a win on Thursday is far more important to me, now if we could follow that up with a win at the chamber of secrets that would be massive!, so a win/qualification and a draw on Sunday would be very satisfying for me. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 13,621 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 I have two main desires regarding our next three fixtures. 1. Qualifying for the EL group stage. 2. Being above that lot in the league on 3rd September. It would be possible to lose two and draw one and still meet that criteria. Unlikely as it is. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueflag 378 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I'll be delighted when we fuck them in their own back yard, never mind this 'delighted' with a draw nonsense. We can do it #letsgo 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briton 314 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Would take a draw now but wouldn't say I'd be 'delighted'. Maybe if we'd come back from 2-0 down and had nine men I guess. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulsonic5791 408 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 The name of the game is - don't get beat. If we can win that's a bonus and big psychological blow to them no matter how underplayed it would be. Make no mistake, going to the Chamber of Secrets with only 500 fans will be a difficult proposition, especially coming off the back of the trip to and from Bashkortostan. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 A draw would be a decent result it seems. But we may regret it in our fight with hearts for the title. I remember jose with chelsea being delighted to get a draw from moyes man utd early in the season. He regretted that as team after team went to old trafford and tonked them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
magic hat 17 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 After today's result we must win on Sunday to make up lost ground. Thats 4 points we have lost in the league. Losing between 30-36 points per season is the border line between winning and losing titles on average about 10-12 bad results are acceptable. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
