The Much Awaited Return of Promotion Maths

[mr underhill]

i've convinced myself we are not going to finish in the top six. So if we do, I'm going to feel a lot better and no worse than I do now.

I really want Fulham to get that second spot don't fancy playing them in the play offs.

There's no chance three teams below us will overtake us in the next five matches.  Millwall have got to win 3 more games than us out of five and Derby two.  Before their last two matches Derby hadn't won in 8!!!

our current form fails to inspire confidence - if we fail to reach the play offs I fear for the future of this club

Mad ting.

2 more points to secure the playoffs.

Well done Bruce!

Even just 1 win from Bolton, Norwich or QPR would have had us in with a real shout.

Yes i enjoyed tonight but it's difficult not to remember those games under the circumstances.

[footyskillz]

Bruceys target is 87 points. 3 wins and a draw when 4 wins would be great unless he knows Fulham are going to lose next 2 London derbies and to blues.

I keep hearing about this points total he's aiming for, "and if another team gets more we pat them on the back and say 'well done'". Surely he couldn't be so monumentally fucking stupid?!

What a missed opportunity for second this season.

Ah well bring on more Warnock ball in the play offs. We will be ready.

Yep but it’s not over bizarrely. All it takes (albeit unlikely) is for one loss for Fulham and one for us for it to become all on again. Granted Fulham are on fire and Cardiff have that game in hand.

[PeterWithesShin]

W16 D4 L0 is an obscene run from Fulham.

If, if and if, but the fact that the gap was ten points and now it's five is doing my head in. One extra game (assuming Fulham do a Devon Loch, starting Saturday teatime) and in a bizarre kind of way I'd fancy our chances.
