Could It REALLY Happen?!

Postby Burt » Wed Jan 13, 2010 10:33 pm

If my old head tells me correctly, no team has ever won the domestic treble in England.

We're used to winnin fucl all for donkeys years and I don't give a rat's shite if I'm tempting fate but can we actually do it now the devilworshippers and dippers are now outta the FA Cup?

I can't remember if Villa are still int FA Cup but if they are, I'd fancy us over them right now.

What do all you fuclers think?

Cum on, don't be shy. Let's all dream a little while we have the chance eh!

Nahhhhhhhhhh............................I wanna dream right now and we are unquestionablt in a position to do it given the way the other so-called Big Four are performing at the moment.

Are there no more positive dreamers out there for fucles sake?!

Carling Cup....... A great chance.
FA Cup.......... OK chance but so have Arsenal, Villa, Everton, Chelsea etc
Premiership.........Very very slim chance, not this year imo.

But top 4 and 2 cup runs hopefully topped off with a Cup would be quality.

ps, stay off that holts' gary glitter ;o)

I had the thought tonight of betting on a city treble.

What are the odds Burt?

We are not winning the league...get it out of your head

League Cup - Great possibility

Fa Cup - Still only a slim chance

You'd get great odds for the treble with red nosed Fred Done that's for sure!!

I don't know mate. I'll see if I can check out a price on Betfair.

Would guess that it'd be at least 500/1 though.

Odds on each are;

Prem 12-1
Carling 5-2
FA cup 11-2

couldn't find for a treble but would think around 250-1

Everyone is waffling about the top 4 crumbling...I don't see Chelsea crumbling...nor Arsenal for that matter...the gooners are my tip for the league this year...I even think the rags will pull themselves out of this slump and be there or thereabouts...i'm not trying to be a killjoy...just trying to be realistic

And if we win it i'll enjoy it more because it would be completely unexpected haha ;-)

None of us are "celebrating the title" mate. We're just saying that we CAN win it and if the others can go on a run then why can't we keep on improving with all the fairly new players and staff that we have and also the quality we have.

If we don't believe we can do it then how da fucl is that going to transmit to our players?

Cum on dream a little and ave little faith. You know you want to:o)

Exactly, Scum are having a bad season but are still up there and Chelsea and Arsenal look good at times (chelsea will be winners imo) but if were in the mix at the end of feburary then il start getting carried away.

A couple of big weeks for us with semi's, 4th round and a couple of league games, up the blues.

Basically YES.. if you think positive and concentrate on EACH game then its possible because we can beat anyone and have a strong squad.. think negative and you have no chance. So.. YES.
