I was thinking more of the media and the neutrals who we are attracting a lot of interest from. Let's see what the team is, of course we can win but we aren't favourites with the bookies like we normally are.

We just need Millwall to not win to keep us at least 10 points ahead of 3rd no matter what our result. If we are missing 3 or 4 normal starters we probably aren't really expected to win, so it takes a bit of pressure off us.

For some reason he is the sort of poster who gets noticed when he doesn't post, he has gone missing more than once I think. I always thought he is a very knowledgeable poster https://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/slowerthanplatt.139010/ Maybe he regularly spends time in prison 🤷‍♂️

Only Stoke has conceded less than us, Ipswich the same. We conceded 6 in the 5 November games including being away against 2nd (twice although Stoke didn't score) We conceded 5 in the 6 October games which includes the 3 Wrexham scored against our reserve defence. I don't think that's too much...

They are our ultimate bogey team, but bogey teams seem to be like manager of the month awards, they don't seem to affect us these days.

Sheff Wednesday worry me, they only need 3.36 ppg to get to 90

I don't know why but I feel confident we will beat Preston.

So we have 14 home games left to play. Hypothetically let's say we win 10, draw 2 lose 2. Given our record that sounds plausible. That's 32 points added to our 43 =75. That leaves us to find somewhere between 12 and 15 points from our 14 away games. Even if we said win 9 at home and lose the...

He's likely to win it again for November

FL confirmed concussion for Saka in his post match interview so barring any complications he should be ok for Saturday

Millwall 3rd with a GD of -3 They won't be there long so (other than Boro) we are at least 13 points ahead of any team with serious auto ambitions.

Could probably lose 8 to 10 and still be ok as we don't seem to do draws.

Southampton lost as well.

5 games to go, 7 more points required.

Totally agree, fortunately we aren't a 1 man team, not sure if that was the case with Walsall, but yes, I think injuries are a major concern but it would take more than one to derail us. As said keeper and DM are the major worries re: injuries.

I didn't mean it's all over, I'm just pointing it out that it's so rare from this position to fail, that everyone remembers the odd time when it has happened. In this instance Newcastle from 30 odd years ago was mentioned, you pointed out another example, although I think Stoke recalling 15 goal...

And that's possibly the only example of a crash of that magnitude we can come up with in around 30 years.

Yes, I said similar in a recent post. Personally I'm not to worried about the goals we have recently conceded because I think it's part of how we play. Throw players forward and goals will come, but we will also be likely to concede, our game plan is to score more than the opposition, simple as...

Because a right sided winger/wing back will cross the ball with their right foot but a right sided corner is taken with the left foot if the taker is facing the other direction. I guess it's about preference by the taker

I think we have waves of intense attacks and overload their box. This is goal 3 against Boro, notice both central defenders are in the 6 yard box from open play, we definitely weren't playing for a draw. Goal 4, this is at 3-2 with 4 minutes to go plus added on time, notice we have 5 players...
