The Much Awaited Return of Promotion Maths

[curiousorange]

Realistically, we need Cardiff to lose 2 and draw 2 out of:

Forest & Reading at home
Norwich, Hull, Derby & ourselves away.

That would mean us needing to win 5 & draw 1 of our last 6 games and hoping that Fulham slip up in 2 of their games.

Currently, we're 6 points behind them with both teams having 6 games to play.

Well, we'll see what Norwich can offer tomorrow, I guess. Reading we can write off given how atrocious they were on Tuesday. Forest, who knows? Hull, more or less the same team as Cardiff, but shitter. Two losses and two draws are possible. Hopefully they're punch drunk come Tuesday night.

Fulham, quite rightly, are the big worry. At the moment they don't look like they could drop a point in the next year, let alone month. But I refuse to believe they'll not lose again this season. It's just too nip and tuck for someone not to do it to them. Can it happen twice?

Fulham have the easiest run in on paper by far, if we don't get second I hope it's Fulham after watching Cardiff tonight we have more of a chance of going up.

I'll tell you something about Fulham they have to go to Hillsborough and get something.
I think a draw is on cards.
Wednesday decent form at the moment
Villa play Norwich 1 win in 10 Norwich and that was against Reading.

Up the villa!!

Fulham won't win tomorrow. Fancy Wednesday for at least a draw.

Agree.
Villas time to shine.
Did I mention 1 win in 10 for Norwich!

Hope has raised an eyebrow...no more at the moment. But come this time next week we could have points in the bag and be 2nd.

Funny old game.

5 more points and Wolves are promoted.

[Des Little]

If we are second in a week’s time I think I’ll self combust.

[SoccerHQ]

5 more points and Wolves are promoted.

Now that was way optimistic anyone thinking they would blow it or we could catch them.

Edit: As it stands Wolves would get promoted with win over SHA. Good bored of them winning and making their relegation fight look easy.

I still think that if we win all our remaining games we'll go up automatically.  Massive 'if' I accept, but we have had those kind of runs before.

Bruce is a streaky manager. He's proved that time and again with us. Now is the perfect time to cement that definition of him by going on a win streak to the end of the season.

But can he streak when the tulips come up and the tickly bit starts?

Bruce streaking? Well if he gets us up then fair enough but I’ll look away if that’s okay

Well we're there or thereabouts which is where a club this side should be. Lets just enjoy it.
