I get this and it's quite true. Obviously you'd have been doing better and would already have promotion mathematically rubber stamped and with the title a possibility to win before the international break in my opinion. With Armstrong's hot and cold record he was never the answer IMHO...

Granted every club's fans will want their side to be better, that's a no-brainer. But all sides are going to look back and see how they could have improved on that season, as it shapes the recruitment for the next. That in itself is not cope, it's being progressive. One of the first things...

It's a good point. I've just used him to suggest what having a striker with a good conversion rate with our volume of chances would likely score. You would think though that 15M would buy you someone who had a decent rate of conversion, certainly at Championship level. How many do you think a...

Not 104 no. But we'd probably get close to the 100 matk this season with a striker who was powerful and had a great shot conversion rate. Defensively we're the best side in the league, with Ipswich now a conceded goal behind having played a game less. Midfield we can play around most sides in...

It was tbf, a brilliant header, though the game should have been over by then. We were just amazed that it wasn't Riis for a change!

Away, which given their home form makes the bonus all the more needed. Ipswich have both their autos challengers head to heads at home, us one home, 1 away, Millwall play both of theirs away.

Yep, that's when Ipswich's game is finally rearranged for. Which makes me and plenty of my co-supporters happy as the proverbial pigs in shit as we play them on the weekend immediately afterwards😃 Unlike the overwhelming majority of our last 7 opponents of our drop in form who had more...

Oh when I'm on the nest, any forum can go bollocks, even my own beloved one! But you didn't say you wanted to finish first rather than second as that is obvious, so you can't add the adage of "Oh but you get promotion too." As that would be your saying both the trophy and promotion are better...

I'm saying it today with a hunch and likely probable outcomes; the side that finishes in second will have 85-88 points. It requires a decent run, but for one of the three behind you to beat the other two will require that. Therefore in this setting, you'd probably only need to gain as many...

In that case you're officially loco. If someone said to me "You can win the league, get this shiny pot, but due to a technicality get disqualified from getting promoted and have to go through this rigmarole again next season with the same old faces"...OR "You can finish either first or second -...

Millwall have also only won ONE of their last TWELVE against Blackburn, so it was the battle of the Hoodoos. But the right one won!😍😍🤣

I'd be optimistic if the threshold to guarantee promotion was just us getting 83 points. As the results we'd need to get it in those 8 games, would only be one point more than we got in the last 8, in our shittest form of the whole season, as you say. With no Hoodoos in sight now. 😍Even...

And Ipswich have now played their SheffWed Joker card. Don't forget that bit.👍

And as I said a few games ago, if you can find a way to make this a certainty, I'd be all over this.😍 Means Typical Boro can't rear it's head against Sheff Wed, so our season essentially becomes a 5 game other teams shootout for the autos with Ipswich and Millwall with us having a head start...

A lot of truth in this. The Sheff Wed game you can just about write off as a win for everyone, and it's been in the calculations for a while. It's why I'm less bothered about Ipswich beating them than I would be Millwall beating Blackburn.👍 We still both have to play the Owls, whereas the...

"10 thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire..." And they found 10 thousand holes in Millwall's defence there, fucking get in!😍

I fucking love you Blackburn😍😍

Pompey will be sound I reckon. Top of that pile with the best GD and two games in hand.

We've more chance of demolishing Millwall than we ever had of simply beating Bristol ******* City🤣

God so do I. It means we get one of THOSE (I'm not even going to say the word this time) games out of the way, yet somehow end up "as you were" after it! Please God🙏 Edit; Ah, bollocks.
