    Don't worry about other teams. It's in our hands, so if we don't get promoted, we don't deserve to.

    Hull fan in peace. We are playing the Tangerines away on Friday for the record. Surprised you see us as even unlikely challengers, the fella who said we don't score enough goals is spot on. When I look at you lot you seem to score 3 almost every week despite the fact I think we're similar sides. The defining difference from what I've seen is probably Lambert. Also we only have 2 players who've scored more than 4 this season, Fryatt and Koren. I think you and West Ham will take the top 2 despite one usually dropping out towards the end of the season in previous years. I thought Brum would a couple of weeks ago but I suspect they'll draw too many. Hopefully we'll at least make the play-offs. Looking forward to our game at the KC as I didn't get to see you earlier on in the season with it being midweek. Best of luck for the rest of the season anyway!

    if you were 10 points behind second if you were in third place then i would see you as challengers. the fact that you're relying on 7 teams to slip up just makes it pretty certain that you get automatic promotion. chasing one team is a whole lot easier than 7.

    Teams in the Championship seem to lose to the most unlikely of candidates. I'm hoping we have no more losses in us this season, but if we do, I bet they come in games we're expected to win. Hopefully the same will be true of Reading. They have got experience at this end of the Championship season, though, which worries me.

    We had the run in experience last season and that was one of the closest run ins you'll ever find with Huddersfield pushing us all the way.

    I think Reading have hit form just slightly too early.

    every team in every league goes through a dodgy spell- even man u. its how long this spell last for, we had 6 weeks when we were only taking a point when before (or dare i say it,now) we would have taken all 3. I think sir alex said that defences win you titles-so reading are obviously a threat, but they are lacking firepower and will drop points when teams start to park the bus or when they play the big boys. Its in our own hands and i have the faith
