The Much Awaited Return of Promotion Maths

We'll do it at Ipswich. 5,000 all in the stand along the side.

Sheffield United winning tonight is a good result for us. They have to play Fulham, Wolves and Cardiff. The longer they remain in contention for 6th place, the better it is for us.

Hadn't thought of it like that.  Good point.  I was thinking of the gap to 7th staying at 11 points but this is more long term thinking.

We need to go at 2 points a game for the rest of the season to go up automatically. Tough but doable.

The vast majority of us would have predicted before the season started that Jedi and Appleyard would miss a fair few games. Kod and Grealish have been the tough ones.

Yep. Kod has been a tough one although arguably a relatively easy position to replace with a loanee.

Grealish is funny though because nobody was counting him on the start of the season but he has improved so much he made himself indispensable before getting crocked. If anything it shows up our poor transfer policy and lack of preparedness going into the season that we struggle so much without him and the likes of Lansbury don’t get a kick.

I know that Angela is a bit of a poser, but does anyone know what he has done, said to have dropped so far down the reckoning that Onomah gets picked ahead of him when to me he was the obvious replacement for Jack?

He does stand up..?

You are sartorially challenged so your opinion is of no value.

Are you stalking him?

[olaftab]

 No I am stalking you and you don't even take off your long johns at night never mind drawing your curtains.

Hopefully with Alan Brazil in attendance on the other.  And Mick Mills, the weasel.

And I thought wearing a dressing gown with no trousers was edgy in this weather. Anyway, what thread are you on next?

Is VAR going to be used in the play off final??  It's a massive match so imagine they may use it. On plus side went okay in league cup final when used but after yesterday would make match even more nail biting. Let's hope promotion happens automatically.

[DennisHodgetts]

VAR in our last League Cup Final would have made a difference-ask Gabby!

Fulham do the business again today at Derby. Their last few fixtures look easier than ours/Cardiff and Derby who maybe can be discounted from the race for second now.

Fulham do have Sheffield Utd, Preston, a derby against QPR who will hopefully be up for it and Norwich away in their next four so we'd really want them to slip up in some of those. After that, in April they just have one tricky game on paper, another West London derby against Brentford but at the Cottage where they've been very strong.
