Last post is most ominous!
City Jacks final would be horrible. I'm genuinely unsure whether I'd prefer us to go out against (a more deserving) Fulham or go through to a final against Swansea. Not to be a massive shithouse, but to have such huge stakes riding on a SW derby is just too much for me. OF course the win would be astronomical and we could go to town on it for decades, but obviously the opposite is also true and part of me would just prefer a bragging-rights amnesty. One, or both of us stand down before one of us , possibly me, get seriously football-hurt

...must be the biggest turn around in history, surely?
Sod em , bet Albert is smirking 2
6 pages of hope, one bonfire to end it.
I like their proposal of 1st & 5th as the automatic promotion positions, sounds good to me.
We've had our fair share. Wednesday away
1-0 last day of the season. Reading at home 3 nil down at half time.
Reading was the playoffs
Wednesday was inevitable after the Preston 6-0 and Ipswich 0-3
This is way worse. 3 points advantage at home to Stoke. With 5 goals in the back pocket.
The only Cardiff capitulation I can think of that even resembles that was Pboro 0-4 HT at Xmas one year
I think Eric Half a Bee did some contextual analysis on PO finishes a while back that really illustrated the scale of our collapse that season where we lost out to PNE (on goals scored?). The scabs gave us a run for our money last night though!
We didn't even need a point. A 5-0 defeat would have been enough!
Am I the only person suspicious about this? The second and third goals were avoidable (tap-ins on the line), and the fourth was a 96th minute own goal from a Forest corner when THE ENTIRE OUTFIELD of Forest were attacking and caught on the break.

Tbf there was one sensible reply.
Are people really worried that we will blow a six-goal difference in one match? Even I'm not fretting. And that's a good sign. Believe me. #nffc

I retract it a bit, as forest needed a goal in the 96th, I forgot they were missing out on goals scored at that point.
But the two tap ins weren't just avoidable (needed a better word), they were training ground goals when the defenders are arsing about. You don't often see two as bad as that close together.
I was watching the City, on the laptop, whilst having Sky Sports on in the background, with the sound turned down.
When they showed the last goal, it was such a perfect finish, I thought it was Forest scoring, to secure their place.
I’d love to see the betting in the East . Deffo something wrong there.
Not actively suggesting anything, but if it happened in the Romanian league or the Thai league or something then I'm sure alarm bells would ring.
Makes me think a bit of this story from a few weeks ago.
Rick Parry, the EFL chairman, was secretly filmed discussing speculation that Wigan Athletic's administration is linked to "a bet in the Philippines on them being relegated".
