    The final table prediction...top 6 or not?

    We were top over 8 games as of Saturday. Leeds winning on Monday must have pushed us into second.

    The final table prediction...top 6 or not?

    The logic doesn't add up does it? We've been the best team in the league over the last 8 games and yet now with our best players back we suddenly revert to the form of a team in about 16th place.....

    The final table prediction...top 6 or not?

    Lucky we have a better squad, manager and no FAC distraction this year then otherwise I'd be worried about the relevance. Phew!

    The final table prediction...top 6 or not?

    We're good at 6 pointers. This run of 7 wins included 5 of them! Bristol C, Watford, Blackburn, QPR, Sheff W. Not to mention the other 2 wins which ended hoodoos stretching back to medieval times. Seriously - it's on.

    The final table prediction...top 6 or not?

    We don't need to though! To keep up our current form (7 in 8) would mean winning 13 of our last 15. We probably need to win 6.

    The final table prediction...top 6 or not?

    20 points from 12 to get to 70 (looks like that sort of number will be enough). 6 wins 2 draws, 4 defeats. A stretch? 1.67 ppg. Overall under Lampard we're on 1.94 and that includes the very moderate start to his tenure. And most of it achieved without Grimes, EMC and Sheaf, and all of it...

    The final table prediction...top 6 or not?

    I'm the other way. We've made up for the poor start with this phenomenal run of 7 wins in 8, closing up 12 points on Blackburn and 9 on West Brom in little over a month so that we're now borderline level. Wipe the slate clean and consider this a mini 12 game season. We're the form team, have...

    Championship thread 24/25!

    Um... I think its 5 losses in our last 8 home games against them including the FAC match.

    Doug got it right

    Any podcast that has (what feels like) a 5 minute opening music intro need to have a good long look at itself. All about opinions and I know Dawkins loves the sound of his own voice but for me That Cov Pod is miles better. Simon and the other guy (James?) are decent. It's also great to have...

    While the sky is blue - The Believers

    The Gurno mix is the best, includes Gurney's commentary of goals from Huckerby, Moldovan and Dublin. "Johnny on the spot Dion Dublin" 😂

    As things stand its got a feel that 70 points might be enough for 6th. Breaking that down, 10 points from the final two batches of 6 matches will put us there or thereabouts. 7 points from the next 3 followed by 3 from Sunderland, Burnley, Sheff U would hit that marker and that feels doable.

    We are right in it

    Sunderland have basically got 2 months of nothing to play for football. They are pretty much guaranteed to finish 4th. Whoever they play will be battle hardened after the fight for 5th and 6th. Really hope we play them in the semi if we make it.

    Spotting fellow Cov fans in the wild

    I do Weymouth parkrun every Saturday in my City shirt. As a result I pretty much end up in conversation with a different City fan down on holiday every week in the summer.

    Spotting fellow Cov fans in the wild

    Me and another City fan traded a "Sky Blue Army!" back and forth near the castle in 2022 much to my wife's annoyance. She muttered "You're a 46 year old man" and headed off to Space Mountain with the kids.

    Doug got it right

    If we get to the play-offs and DON'T get promoted then Doug got it right IMO.
