    Hadn’t realised the Luton win earlier effectively relegated Plymouth

    Cardiff are a club that I can see being stuck in league one for a while, unless ownership changes.

    5 clubs fighting for 2 spots in the top 6.

    6 clubs fighting to stay up (technically 5 unless Plymouth overturn a huge goal difference)

    Best league in the world.

    Last day fixtures.

    Coventry vs Boro
    Burnley vs Millwall
    Sheff Utd vs Blackburn

    Cov vs boro, Cov win - in play offs. Boro win would depend on other 2 games going their way.
    Draw will do Cov if Millwall & Blackburn fail to win.

    What's the chances of Cov vs Boro having a delayed KO.

    What a season it’s been right throughout the division. Next week should be superb

    Interesting this. Variance is really catching up to Coventry recently.

    Wonder what our chart would be like, we've been in a mini slump/preseason (depending on which view you take) since March. We've lost tight games aswell

    We don't create a great deal but we, normally, don't give up much. Would guess over the season we project as a playoff side.

    Yeah our creativity has dropped off since Xmas like.

    We should definitely project as a play offs side, our form recently has masked just how far away us and the other 3 were to the rest of the division. The top 4 have literally been in their own league for the majority of the season.

    If Millwall get it that will be a run that's simply incredible like. Similar to what Neil did here. Proper turned it round with such a poor squad.

    Very interesting and just what I thought.

    When I've said they've been lucky it's been dismissed but they really have.

    They were awful against Luton and only got lucky because Walsh sent himself off.

    Would still rather play literally anyone else in the playoffs mind!

    Who goes down then?

    IMG_4912.jpeg

    Bristol City v Preston
    Derby
    v Stoke
    Plymouth
    v Leeds
    Portsmouth v Hull
    West Brom v Luton

    Plymouth are down unless there's an absolute miracle. I think Preston are in big trouble.

    Can't see Hull getting anything at Porstmouth, so bottom 3 as it stands now I reckon.

    My Preston pick is based on how they are playing a team with something to play for, Bristol City need to win to secure a playoff spot. Pompey and West Brom are on the beach.

    Going to be fun to watch!
