    For sure, I’m v confident that a win tonight and v Stoke is ‘set point’. From that position, we really would need rotten form at home and away to fall out of the top 2.

    Do you back any of those teams to beat Ipswich away? Personally, I don’t. 2-3 draws, definitely. I don’t expect Boro, Ipswich or ourselves to drop many more points at home. Although Boro could be demoralised if they drop any more points v Blues and QPR and we’ve pulled away. In fact, Boro...

    All that is true, but objectively, their away run in is easier than the ourselves and Boro. Last season, we tripped up v Plymouth, Luton, Derby and Hull in the closing weeks of the season, so the league position isn’t a gimme. They can be difficult games and for our sake, I want them (and...

    I wasn’t laughing at you, but with you - the post was funny. Frankly, I hope they lose all 3 games but don’t think they will. Equally, projecting that they will win 3-4 games against the likes of WBA, Sheff W, Stoke, Charlton, Pompey, Norwich or Southampton is hardly a big claim that’s...

    It’s important to note that I said I can’t see where they’ll lose. Of course they can drop points by drawing games. They’ve only lost 1 more away game than us and Boro and if they win their game in hand, Football is full of surprises, the bookies would’ve made a lot of money with Oxford drawing...

    I’m looking at Ipswich’s remaining away games and can’t see where they’ll lose. Draws v Southampton and Norwich seem realistic, perhaps one of those will be a loss. Stoke, Wednesday, Charlton and WBA seem like shoe-in wins. Compare that to Boro’s run in away of Birmingham, QPR, Blackburn...

    A draw v PNE and Southampton in isolation are by no means ‘poor results’. If we revisit the match threads, I’m sure the prevailing narrative was ‘take a draw’. I was angry that we went 1-0 v 10 men and ended up drawing but performance wise, we win that game most times. Likewise with...

    Losing top spot must’ve been a real kick up the backside for the squad. The opportunity to immediately take back top spot v Boro was the perfect motivation imo. Also, adding a player like Onyeka to squad is a big boost. He is a Prem player and has immediately made an impact.

    Exactly! I do wonder if the club will adjust the points tally from 10 to 20 if the game is rescheduled.

    My personal view was that our slump was overplayed away from home. What actually worried me was the 2 losses from winning positions v Norwich and QPR in the same week followed by drawing to Oxford at home. That was the real slump. Our December away fixtures couldn’t get much harder from Stoke...

    We have challenging games at home but under Lampard our record has been flawless. In the league, we’ve lost 3 games at home? Burnley, Leeds and Ipswich, 5 in all competitions. Despite Derby, Wrexham, Southampton, PNE being tough matches we’ve got to main that fortress status and get 4-5 wins...

    To be perfectly honest, both of our clubs are performing at a much higher level than we’d have expected in pre-season. All the underlying data this season has Cov and Ipswich as the top 2 teams in the division. If Boro do in fact finish in the playoffs, I’d back you to win it because you’re...

    I read an article earlier today that basically said we had the ‘hardest’ remaining fixtures out of Boro, Ipswich and ourselves. What the article didn’t look into was the breakdown of opponents by home/away record. Boro’s advantage over us and Ipswich is their away form. They have by far the...

    You’ll be entitled to a refund if the game gets rescheduled… 😉

    Ipswich are home too and my money is on them. Boro’s home form isn’t as strong as Ipswich or ours and have a tough away schedule remaining. I’m confident that if we get 6 points this week, it more or less seals it. Birmingham have lost 1 game at home all season and if Boro drop point next...
