Yeah, because it's completely infeasable that a team that finished fifth would lose away to the team with the best home record in the division :roll:

Snowball We led Cardiff 1-0 and they "equalised" with a dodgy goal.

We led Cardiff 1-0 and 2-1 in Cardiff.

We drew 0-0 with Cardiff (without Kebe)

We beat Cardiff 3-0 on their patch (without Kebe and without HRK)


What difference does it make that you were ahead against them several times? You've also neglected to mention that Bellamy didn't play most of the first leg and none of the second leg against you, which seems like a fair comparison since you were without Kebe. Cardiff also had Ramsey playing for them when they beat us at the Liberty.

As I said in the other thread, you can prove whatever you want by choosing some nice selective stats. And quite what relevance our respective records against one other team have to do with the game on Monday I have no idea. Ultimately the only statistic anyone will care about is what the final score is on Monday.

Snowball
Wycombe Royal
Snowball The side with Ledge might not have lost those games.

Corrected for you.



The side with Elwood would not have lost those games.


You are FULL of sh*t. Posting in bold doesn't make your spurious opinions any less invalid.

Again, corrected for you - until you can show some uncontestable proof that we would not have lost both games against Swansea.

More chance of Robin Friday scoring a last minute winner for us in Monday's final than that mind.

I also corrected the player's name as, and this is uncontestable, his name is not Elwood.

Snowball gets a lot of stick. Sometimes unfairly so. This thread represents the worst of Snowball though with some random stats that are at best inconclusive and bold statements that simply cannot be proven.

wolsey We're doomed aren't we? Why are we bothering to turn up?


Because we follow our team and we want to get back into the Premier League, dont we? Yeah Swansea are good, but we've beat them in the past (speaking for both teams here). Anyway, forget about the stats and past fixtures, it all depends on those 90 mins on the day. Its like exams, its only easy if you know the answers, the game is only easy if you know what to do and how to beat them.


I take it you don't do irony.

Irony? Is that like goldy or bronzy..........only made out of iron?

We have nothing to fear but fear itself.

That and Scott Sinclair.
