If we get promoted, when will it be?

Post by Darlo_Pete » Tue Apr 19, 2016 5:05 am

I was wondering if people think it's more likely that we get promoted tonight or some other time or not at all?

Back to the subject, I do expect us to finally gain promotion and win the title on Thursday at Whitby. Having over many years witnessed 5 promotions, it's much more fun seeing us get promoted away from home, than at home. The 2 promotions away from home that I have witnessed, were at Crewe and Welling, both especially Welling many miles from Darlo. So I think it would be extra special to gain promotion at Whitby, a relatively short trip from Darlo. Having said that I'd still be delighted if results go our way tonight.

I've voted that we'll miss out on promotion... now that you've put a jinx on it.

All these injuries and tired legs - we'll never do it through the play-offs if we fall back to that option.

I expect Blyth to win their 2 remaining games, Grantham to scrape a draw tonight, Whitby to still need to win on Thursday and a nail biting and extremely BIG ask of the lads down at Rushall on Saturday.

Same as Mr Tibbs trying to undo Pete's hourly attempts to jinx it.

I know we have tired legs and I know I'm jinxing it by saying this but I just can't see us not picking up 4 points from 3 games.

I doubt it will be tonight, but I think Thursday.

We will be playing at the arena again next season - fact.

Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.

Have to agree with Spyman. The recent teams have been mor or less very un-darlo like. Winning leagues and breaking records....it's not like us. I think MG saw all this coming months ago. I think he's planned for us to get over the line without needing to stretch a lot of the players.

Don't think we'll canter to promotion. More ease over the line with minimal fuss.

Pete, I don't know what on earth you are trying to achieve from this thread. Pointless and unnecessary.

When it's mathematically certain!

Dumb Survey.

Chicken counting can lead to Darlo player and fan frustration and moaning at matches, which helps the opposition.

Assuming promotion online can also gee up Blyth players and their fans.

Pete's getting all the attention he craves from this thread. The jinx joke stopped being funny years ago.

I wonder if tickets will be hard to come by when we play Salford in the play-offs?

You really are getting carried away with yourself, Pete. It's just like you to be premature.

I may have a little surprise in store tonight - be warned. I do move in mysterious ways. :twisted:

God Bless.

Pete reminds me of a girlfriend from years ago - she used to say the most silly and inappropriate things. As I remember, she was better looking than Pete......

Where did I say we'd win promotion? I said IF if you read the subject matter, I wasn't predicting we would.

If Stamford lose or draw tonight then Whitby are safe as they have a miles better GD than Stamford. A win for Whitby and they are safe even if Stamford win. Stamford simply HAVE to win tonight or they are relegated.
