We'll be top two and quite possibly top of the league I think. Got to keep playing like yesterday, but it's perfectly achievable. There. Nailed my colours to the mast... COYY
Still reserving judgment for the time being. Anything can happen in the weeks to come although I would say that Watford are probably going to end up in an auto spot.
Not so sure Rob, think Bournemouth´s run in is just as manageable (if not more so) than ours, see http://www.not606.com/threads/three-points-deserved-two-got-away.294721 #10 where I outline what we all have left, but `Boro have got some really tough looking games to come, as have Derby.
I think Bournemouth have got over their slightly rocky patch and I fully expect them to go on and gain one of the two automatic spots.
Yep, as long as they don't get hit by any injuries. Between us and Watford for the last one IMO. We need to maintain intensity.
Hope I´m quite wrong, but I actually happen to think that we´ll both pick up two draws and two wins in our next 4 games, so the 3 points at that rate will be hard to overhaul.
I think we'll be in the top 2 by the time we play Boro. Then when we beat Boro it'll be a nice stroll to the finish and on the last day we'll thump 10 past Fulham just to make up for all the **** times we've had against them!
Interesting thoughts Rob! trip to Huddersfield the kinda game you lot need three points from tomorrow for this to happen of course. Still have a good feeling we could sneak into 6th. For you, definitely be top 5 but I really couldn't call where. So closely matched out of the 5 of you! I think the automatic promotion hunt will go down to final day, the sides in 3 /4 could arguably have JUST missed out on automatic so picking themselves up may not be as easy as people think? None Ipswich bias on that either.
With so few games to go one or two poor results will count hugely against whichever of the top five slip up. All we can do is concentrate on our own business and keep playing well and turning good performances into 3 points. I am still pretty confident we'll be top two - I Just can't see Bournmouth sustaining their form (I have no rational reason why just a gut feeling). I can see Derby falling away over the next couple of weeks if they cannot get a forward in place - they were very ordinary on Saturday. Boro have yet to come to us and so our fate against them is in our own hands and Watford really aren't that good. Below the top five I don't see anyone coming up on the rails given the lack of games remaining. Despite the poor result on Saturday I still see us finishing top two..
Must admit Westy, I can't see Ipswich recovering from here unfortunately. I would have liked us both to get promoted, but I really don't think that will happen. As I predicted about five weeks ago, I expect Wolves to be above Ipswich within a few matches
I don't see why we don't have a good chance actually. We host Bolton tomorrow with their manager admitting they are changing their team and focusing on the weekend game! cheers then. We have Blackpool home to come. We have other winnable games. We will give it a good go that's for sure. Play like we did first half at Boro and cut the errors out we'll definitely be top 6.
