Every fan of every club says the same.

Bollocks. They were the better side first half. But if we’re counting half chances as goals we’d have still won that and the Millwall game.

No he's not

Bobby for Lati Torp for Eccles Tats, BTA and Eccles on after 65. Let's go!

I don't feel anything towards any of the West Midlands clubs. I can't deny I'm enjoying Birmingham being largely shit despite winning the league in July though. Never gave Leicester a second thought until recently but the rivalry has definitely increased in recent years, driven as everything...

Need the crowd to be at least 28,869 to keep the season average above 30K.

Not if 'size' correlates with 'achievement'. 56 seasons v 34 in the top flight 1 top flight title v 6th highest place finish 1 FAC each 3 LC v 2 semi-finals 8 2nd tier titles v 1 I mean, its not vaguely close at all. Still, it will be lovely to be potentially 2 leagues above them next year.

I reckon there are around 500-700 left in home areas (which tbf is damn good going). So it'll probably be 29K. So far QPR has been the lowest - 29,015.

Following on from the weekend's win, and the subsequent Villa thread, I'm interested to know which team people hate the most. I've included all WM teams, Leicester and Sunderland as individual options as these are the teams I've heard mentioned on here over the years (although not WBA tbf)...

I was there during that era when we were the only West Midland teams in the top flight for years. They literally didn't regard us as a rival in any shape or form. They mention about relegating us like I would to, say, an Everton fan if we'd relegated them in 98 at Goodison. Doesn't make it a...

The Villa rivalry is one of the most tinpot things about us, they have never given a shit about us.

PL clubs are significantly less impacted by ticket revenue than teams lower down the food chain.

I see both arguments. A firing Wright wins us the league though and that's why I'm inclined to give him as many chances as possible. The Saturday Haji is the best striker in the league.

And obviously if we keep tracking at 2ppg the likelihood of both Ipswich and Middlesbrough finishing above us is close to non-existent. Both would need 2.3 ppg from here. Middlesbrough are not winning 13 drawing 5 and losing 1 out of their last 19.

I didn't mention Ipswich as I think they will average 2ppg from here. Just don't see Middlesbrough doing it. They're on 1.8 this season, 1.2 over the last 6, 1.9 over the last 10. 32 from 19 for us (1.7 ppg) feels so doable. Its going to be an absolute killer if we don't make it.

Agreed. Saturday felt a bit more pressurised after their win on Friday. Hopefully we can return the favour midweek.

I don't see Middlesbrough averaging more than 2 ppg until the end of the season so 87 would secure it for us if they get exactly that. So 85/86 still feels like it could be enough to me.

It'll be much more than that, wasn't saying it was shit. It'll be 28K plus whatever Millwall bring I'd have thought.

Looking at the amount of blue dots this could be heading for the lowest attendance of the season. Hopefully it will pick up today. Tickets are dirt cheap for this one.
