    Never understand the fixation with empty seats, atmosphere etc. Plenty of stadiums in Europe like the Etihad these days for numerous reasons.

    I turn on the tv to watch football, not to get my calculator out to count people.

    you shouldn't need a calculator

    Game over already

    The game was over the second the fixture was made. The only game City have left that might be as handy as Cardiff would be Brighton who in other years would be worried of doing what Swansea did last season.

    I just hope Hazard doesnt have a good game

    13 wins in a row , happy days. Logic would suggest City will drop points at some point soon. Good timing for us.
    We're only starting a good run, we can win 6 without it being an epic run.

    Doesn't work like that unfortunately theres no reason they should drop points within the nxt six games just because they haven't in the previous 13,ive seen first hand black turning up on a roulette wheel 21 times in a row, after 6,7,8,9,10 spins logic would say it must go red at some point but it didn't

    Wouldn’t look too far beyond Friday to be honest, Southampton away is no gimme.

    Good to see the Brewster being hyped up by Klopp.

    Logic would suggest the exact opposite - your reasoning states that the team in better form will be punished by it.

    I know what you're getting at, in a fuzzy sort of a way, but that only applies to unknowns. As far as actual odds/probability are concerned, all that matters is the next 6 games. The fact that it would create an unlikely total winning run of 14 games was only relevant before that run began.

    I hope you are rich enough to have been Martingaling the hell out of the roulette wheel that time. Would have been some sight. I'm sure you have a few million handy for such occasions.

    I've been taken to the cleaners on that sort of shyte a couple of times whilst playing roulette online:mad:

    I now never touch online roulette because of that, It has to be fixed:p

    Ha, yeah, as logically definitive as it is that red and black are always 50/50 with every spin, regardless what has happened before, it's mentally hard to ignore sequences like that.

    Some sort of algorithm kicks and knows the player is going to back against the color that has repeatedly dropped. Its fecking robbery is what it is:D

    I (bet) anyone that plays it online has been caught at some stage:)

    I don't know, but i'd imagine that would be massively illegal from a betting company.

    Shall I bet on red or black or Cardiff City?

    Obviously, but don't let that get in the way of a good conspiracy theory.

    Well the table has no memory, so the chance or a red or black is 47.3% every spin on a normal roulette table. Did you really see 21 in a row. The chances of this are like 1 in over 2 million.

    I'd like us to win it in whatever fashion boils the most piss of opposition fans. Like being totally outplayed by Wolves only to win it 5 minutes into 2 minutes of stoppage time with an offside goal scored by a bloke who should have been sent off in the first minute of the game.

    But mostly I just want us to win it, any bloody way we can!

    I would love it if we had it won with a game to go. no last min nerves , no panic just relaxation and enjoyment. cant see it though, think it will come down to the last 30 min of the last game for it to be decided.

    Mite seem obvious but i think if we are to win it we MUST win our next two and keep the pressure on City for the game against Palace, Spurs and United,

    If City get through them 3 games and are on top I think its over ,

    Crazy to think we could potentially hit 97 points and still not win the league.

    Very nervous about the game on Friday an early goal would be great ,

    Early goal..... who do you think we are Man City? We are the late goal guys :D:cool:

    City have been great in that aspect, they just keep scoring early and never put themselves under pressure, They last 10 prem games have been a stroll ,

    I don't think they have even come close to dropping points which is scary ,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,296 ✭✭✭shamrock55


    City are getting the job done early in games alright, be interesting to see if a team could at least hold out till half time

    West Ham & Bournemouth were 0-0 at HT if I recall correctly

    City's first title came down to the last 30 seconds of the last game. I'd take that! I'll take anything with the outcome as Liverpool being champions.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,645 ✭✭✭RollieFingers


    Wouldn't be overly worried by Southampton, results at the bottom have gone their way last week or two so I think it's a good time to play them, it's not a must win game for them. Of course every game is difficult but I can see a win for Pool by two or three goals.

    Was thinking the same but the other side of the logic is that, given the other results, any sort of result for them puts more daylight between them and relegation. I expect them to go all out.
