If we are still here next season I can see it being tougher to go up with Small Heath, Baggies, and Burslem to contend with

We won't be contending with Port Vale surely?

Try Shrewsbury Town.

Yes I will be full of joy knowing Brucey has secured a play off place.
One heck of an achievement.

I accept it's confusing but I think "Stoke" is the town you're looking for.

If we are still here next season I can see it being tougher to go up with Small Heath, Baggies, and Burslem to contend with - plus the upheaval of players leaving - asking the younger players to step up is risking it as they have not had much experience or game time this season - it's gonna be interesting to see how Bruce plays things from here on in - secure play off spot and then rest players for 3 cup finals?

Why on earth would we be worried about Small Heath? If they manage to stay up it will be by the skin of their teeth, again, and i'd suggest they will be their usual selves again next season I.e. utter shite

Criminal we lost to QPR and didn't beat Hull (Bolton in those conditions was a bit of a lottery so I give them a pass there).

5 points behind Cardiff with their run of games and I'd believe we could do it, 10 is far too much.

So annoying. Said they'd start dropping points in April but we couldn't even pick up an average return for March and give ourselves a chance. If we beat cardiff it will add insult to injury for me.

Monk will go in the summer when he realises he has three pence to spend.  Provided he empties the sofa in his office.

Watched the second half tonight. Cardiff just battle and battle and don't give up but they really are piss poor. Sheff Utd should of buried them. The fact that they're 10 points ahead of us reflects very badly on Bruce's management.

We have to do it this year. I don’t fancy going to Shrewsbury with Davis and Cameron Jerome up front.

There's a good chance we will be a point behind Cardiff after we beat them next week. They've got a game in hand against Bottler County mind, but it would be pretty annoying to miss out by 3 or 4 points on 2nd owing to these 3 piss poor performances.
