At least we should have a good allocation if we're in the mix at the end of season. Blackburn is the last away game and Newcastle have been given (and sold out) 6850 for their trip to Ewood.

Brighton winning means we are now 15 points off the automatic places. We would need to be the form team in the league to make up that kind of gap, which I cant really see yet.

Nobody has a chance of getting out of the Championship bar six.

Win today though and we are 12 with Brighton to play. Can we make up 9 points? Yes is the answer, but much depends on how we strengthen the midfield in January.

The play offs are well within grasp.

The packaging looked very cheap but I preferred them to Kit Kat.

So important we won today. That gap is down to three points, very doable.

A win Tuesday would be massive.

At the rate Newcastle and Brighton are racking up wins they will both finish well over 90 points.

We would need to win 4 out of every 5 games for the rest of the season to catch them. I would say impossible, unless one of them starts to drop points badly.

So, although today was a good result in the end we just don't look capable enough to put teams away game after game. Given the money invested in our front line, that's disappointing.

I don't think we can blame our midfield for that, 14 shots today, only 1 goal.

Brighton are massively unconvincing everytime I see them. But they grind them out. Maybe we've learnt a lesson of late?

Bruce is turning 1 point into 3; Reading, Fulham and now Wigan all fit that category.

Fuck it, if we don't make the automatic spots, I'd more than settle for a day out in North London in early Summer.

I'd badly disfigure your arm to be at Wembley
