The sun is shining on them this season Ox...I wish them well upstairs in their first foray at the top table. Will be a vertiginous education
I think this is right - So by my reckoning, we can't finish lower than 4th and 6th is still a 3-way fight!!!!!
So, IF we win both matches, we need 2 out of the following to happen: Boro to draw a match Watford to lose a match (or draw both) Bournemouth to lose a match (or draw both) Unlikely, but possible. Let's keep faith.
Seems a very long shot but there is still a chance. If we can overtake just one of those three though, at least we'd finish top of the play-offs and face the 4th team rather than Derby. Still possibilities to play for.
I think he means the fourth play-off team - I.e. The team that finishes sixth. On the basis that Derby are looking set for fifth
Any one of the top four could be champions. Automatic promotion for you lot certainly wouldn't surprise me. It will come down to how well teams respond to the pressure and any set backs during games. I am very nervous about our last two games. Every time we have gone top this season we have lost the next match, and if we lose 1-0 and you win 1-0 you will go above us. Bournemouth are feeling victimised. If a decision goes against them on Monday who knows how they will react.
Sorry Cromer, Rob is right that I did mean the 4th ranked team in the play-offs rather than league position. In a strange way, the pressure is off us now and on the other 3 teams.
