Why would it be amazing for us to finish 2nd?

It would be disappointing if we didn’t at least finish 2nd. If we beat Shef U Wolves will be looking over their shoulders.

Voted for 2nd, glad so many think this is achievable, with our squad automatic place should be the aim

If we sign another forward we can finish second. We still could do, even if we don't sign anyone, but it would be a gamble.

True. I certainly wouldn't right off Davis who only struggled with our poor tactics and a lack of decent service. Every striker would. As others have said, our squad depth and quality should be more than enough to get us up in 2nd. Most other teams don't have that luxury. Barnsley had a couple out and were punished. It's the rules of the jungle.

Derby have something ridiculous like seven strikers on their books. Are they as well stocked in other areas? Wolves aside, I doubt any other team has the squad-depth we have.

We have 5 right backs but until now (crosses fingers, touches wood, etc) we don't play them all at the same time.

I have thought all season that with our squad, even with a huge injury list, play offs should be considered a failure. We are now falling into a settled and balanced side where we should (Please Bruce keep to this) only bring in returning players into their rightful positions within the team - not shoehorn them in for any other reason or play them out of position.

I thought a few weeks ago that 2nd was a distinct possibility - now after clawing back 5 points in 2 games I want to go for the dogheads as I think even they are now catchable.

I think we could be within  5/6 points by the time they come to us on 10th March and if that is the case they will be shitting it

If we can avoid injuries and suspensions then automatic promotion is possible, but I’ve got a nagging feeling we will end up in the playoffs and I’ll have to spend each of our games anxiously eating my own hands.

Wolves and Derby no. Wolves fans remark that their front man is looking shattered mind.

If thats the Italian fella then yes, my ST holding mate says you wouldn't think it was the same player as pre-Xmas.

Which is good news.

I think we need to worry about Boro.  Pulls has got them going and even bloody Traore scored at the weekend.

Away. They've lost their two home games so far which isn't the usual for Pulisball.

I think you get automatically promoted if you finish second, and if that is the case, I for one would be very pleased.
It probably would be pleasantly surprising too considering where we finished last season and that we haven't been that high all season so far.

If we don't finish second I think Fulham will.

Fulham are better than wolves on their day. So pacey and they have a proper go. Can’t believe they’ve doubled their prices for us
