Ideally one of them wins, so that Sheff Utd need to beat West Brom on Wednesday to clinch promotion. No point getting into a 'what if' kind of flap that the Philosopher seems to have got into over it all. If we do end up in the playoffs we could as well finish 5th or 6th, meaning it doesn't...

4 points looks like it will do it to me. 3 points would leave it open to vagaries of goal difference, which could all change in the next couple of games.

Anyone know much about Aaron Collins who won the League 1 player of the season award playing for Bristol Rovers? Is he someone that's worth us looking at bringing in?

Fadz comes into his own when we are faced with an overly physical forward line. I would have felt uneasy starting without him if Carroll had been playing for Reading at the weekend, and likewise this Saturday when up against Jutkiewicz and their long throw in tactics.

Joao must be a very frustrating player to have in your team, as he plainly has buckets full of ability, but he doesn't appear to work that hard for the team, and having got used to Gyokeres' work effort here I don't think it would be long before he was a target for our boo boys. Of the 3 you...

This thread is a clue to what to expect should the unthinkable happen and we make it into the PL. If as likely we are in our around the relegation places a couple of months in, the bed wetters will undoubtedly be out in force again demanding we sack MR.

Is there time to organise a minutes applause on the 58th minute at the Reading game on Saturday? Perhaps Pete could speak to a few people to get his photo on the big screen?

Very sad news. He helped a lot of us make some sense of the financial minefield of our football club, and was always measured in his opinions, contrary to many of the more sensationalist posts made by others on the same subject. What I particularly admired was while he would explain further when...

We should give our fans a chance to sell out tickets before offering that amount to the away team. 5,000 away fans would seriously dampen our home advantage. Should be no more than 3,000 as far as I'm concerned, although if we don't sell the remainder then I do think we can't complain if more...

Pretty sure last season they made out there were no ticket sales on the day, but it wasn't actually the case in reality. They only had 14,000 against Hull and their fans don't seem to be up for the game, so there will be plenty of room for anyone wanting to go.

This is exactly the reason there is no point making predictions. In this league if you can predict 50% of the results of games you are doing well, and is why using the fixture calculator tool is pretty pointless. There are so many variables! Difficult though it is to not get too far ahead of...

They have never been called the Sky Blues. Their nickname was always the Light Blues!

Our away support has been a big factor in our recent away victories, and mid week or not this game is of such proportions that a huge turnout could definitely prove a positive factor in us winning the game. Let's do this!

With regard to the JSB tickets, presumably they are accompanied by adults paying full price! We need to tread carefully here, as you can't put a value on capturing your future support early, and until we reach a point that we can sell out the ground, 'giving away' tickets to that demographic...

It's nothing to do with fearing QPR as such, but you must know by now that on any given day, we can win, lose or draw against any team in this division. There are so may variables which will only pan out as the game unfolds. The fear is more one of the law of averages, in that they are due to...

I don't see it makes much diiference what league we're in. If we stay where we are season ticket holders get 23 games, but if we go up they get 4 less, so there is already a pro rata increase built in should we get promoted, if the price is the same in both scenarios. I imagine its match day...

I'd certainly rather we try to sign Ince than Paterson, that's for sure!

I don't remember a lot of people tipping Burnley as certainties to go up at the start of the season, so on that basis I think Kompany has done a hell of a job, even if accepting that next season presents them a wholly different challenge.

Given that he's presumably going to be unsettled at Reading I was going to suggest Tom Ince as a possible Summer signing, but just looking up on him I was surprised to see he is already 31. Seems to me he has had a fairly unfulfilled career given the promise he once showed.

Not completely disagreeing with you, but when you say a 'top class centre forward', can you give me an example. They're not exactly 10 a penny, which is why I expect us to get more than £15m for Gyokeres in the Summer. Replacing him will be far more difficult than a lot of our supporters seem to...
