    The Watford Gap is 4 points.......Tomorrow we need another 3!

    Hope we have a sold-out KC and a shed-load of noise!!!

    Don't think the KC will sell out, police segregation nonsense would stop it anyway, and even if we did there wouldn't be a shedful of noise, the probability being that Watford fans will outsing us even though they aren't the noisiest of supporters.

    I was just looking at the table and although a draw would not be a disaster a win is what we need, as you say then 4 points off Cardiff. Really do hope we can keep 2nd place as it would be such a big let down to start dropping. Six months ago we would have been happy with play off position but I think it is 2nd or nothing now I have no confidence in being able to get through the play offs and a Wembley final. Of course it just might be our year and we could finish top on the last day of the season. I am hoping it will be a great atmosphere tomorrow, what more could you want in a game and although Bruce is good at keeping the players feet on the ground they must be on a real high at the moment.

    I'd take a draw, but we seriously need a win. The only consolation being that Cardiff play Watford on Saturday, and I expect Cardiff to win that.

    Sadly, I don't expect the stadium to be sold out, which will be a shame, and really it will be a disappointment if there are less than 20,000. The atmosphere will likely pick up though, but only due to what is at stake.


    EDIT: Thankfully it seems my fears on attendance have been well and truly smashed. Its a home sell-out.

    Tomorrow is without a doubt a key game. A win and we've got the momentum and will start looking up with relish. Those below will be preparing for the play offs. Cardiff will focus on auto's but could take their eye off the ball once they've got it. We should still be working to the end.


    Tomorrow has nervy draw written all over it.

    But Watford have far more at stake. Lose and they're ****ed.

    All we have to do is keep our nerve and let them handle the pressure, not us.

    Pressure like Palace and Watford have been unable to handle in recent games.

    Agreed, Asbo - but, if we do lose, we only have one point margin. Even a draw is not too bad (as Jules said). But we have to keep after Cardiff.

    After our win today if we can both beat Watford.that will practically seal it for us and give you a good lead.

    Now as we both know we would not really do each other any favours 2 wins against Watford would really help us both so good luck with your game.

    IF we beat Watford, beat Boro and then Cardiff beat Watford, the 10 points gap should be enough.

    I'm hoping for a win against Watford and Boro and a Watford win against Cardiff, to be fair.

    Well tomorrow at work is gonna be fun when I see the Palarse fan who was a smug twat when they turned us over by cheating, and TWS fan who is still convinced they're a side to be reckoned with. Oh yes, me and my mate from Barnsley are gonna be enjoying tomorrow very much.

    Please, let us beat Watford and my week will be complete.

    It would mean we'd only need 6 points from the last 5 games to guarantee promotion.

    Prepare for disappointment.......... Can't see 20k outside of premiership, and even then those above 18k will be dressed in tiger suits with a picture of Luis Demba ready for signature

    We lose tomorrow and momentum will be lost and their tails will be up.

    Also, nothings clear cut in this league so just because we're top doesn't mean we'll breeze past Boro, Ipswich, Barnsley, Bristol & Wolves.

    Mouthing off about Pearson & promotion, at this point, is daft. Mind you most of our fans live on cloud cuckoo land.
