I was hoping to read some carefully considered maths equations to give me an idea of our chances of getting promoted. All I found was a couple of sad children squabbling. grow up the pair of you and focus on the issue !
Sorry sir. It wasn't me it was him.

Where do you get this sort of shit from:

"What I don't understand is why you immediately jump on the defensive and take just about every opinion to the contrary to yours as some kind of personal attack."

That doesn't reflect my posting style at all.  I can't ever recall calling someone out for a personal attack.  I just happened to remember last time you commented on one of my posts it was exactly that (but this is the first time I mentioned it).  And yet here you are again. 

So as I suggested, let's just ignore each others posts hey?

Personally I would find it regrettable if you ignored each other as this would inevitable deprive my good self an no doubt other like minded people of some much needed cheer during these hideous winter days.

That other geezer, Cheltenham whatever is clearly a bunny boiler of the highest order and could probably give Sharon Stone lessons. He’s also sartorially challenged and over-indulged in the nasal department.

You do, however, give him a run for his money in terms of your self aggrandising, paranoid stylings and an ability to take offence at the drop of a hat. It does make for entertaining reading.

Also, it alleviates pressure on the budget of mental health services. Do keep it up.

Madferret62 personally I would find it easier if you could quote properly so that I don't have to work out where you started and the other poster finished. It will alleviate pressure on my minuscule brain.

Bunny boiler? Don't you mean Glenn Close rather than Sharon Stone?

We wouldn't want Cheltenhamlion flashing his minge in here.

I was taught a fine lesson last time I did that when it was this cold. A frozen beaver is not a pretty sight.

Derby v Fulham and Brentford v Cardiff this weekend. Potential dropped points there I think

A draw with Derby and Fulham seems the likely result. I'm hopeful Brentford can do Cardiff.

Main thing is we win.

The key will be beating Cardiff and Reading.

With QPR, Sunderland, Bolton, Hull, Reading and mid-table cigars on the beach sides like Norwich, Ipswich, Leeds and Millwall to play it may well be that we pick up 7 wins out of that lot and simply have to avoid defeat against Cardiff and Derby. Time will tell, but I think 8 more wins and a few draws would guarantee it, but that's probably overkill.

Let's beat QPR and see where the dust lies.

I think it might take an exceptional run of results like that to get us up automatically to be honest, especially as we are sitting four points off it.

I disagree. 86 will likely be enough, but I would prefer 90 odd and be comfortable.

forget 4 points off anything - we are 10 points off the Dingles with them to come to us

Cardiff have of note

Blues at Home - tough one to want to lose - so lets hope the inbreds miraculously get a draw although I bet their fans hope for a loss (sad twats)

Sheff U away - not easy

Derby away - draw would be good

Wolves home - draw would be good

Us  away - hopefully we get the result

Norwich away - never easy

The n some right relegation fodder including Reading on last day

This is doable
