A shame it's ended this way.That’s why I said it’s important we start winning away from home. Means we don’t have the pressure of the last 7 home games being must wins…
12 games left with 7 at home and 5 away now. This 3 game streak has put us in a great position.
Hoping Ipswich Boro are a 12:30 kick off and they push us back to the 17:15 slot so we know what we need to do to secure promotion5,500 away fans at Blackburn on the same day Boro play Ipswich.

Don't even think it will come to that
Said since about November time that if we were to do it, Pompey H On Tuesday 21st April is the one
Cant even say why just had an inkling ever since I looked at our last few games.
Could you imagine the amount of sickies being pulled on the Wednesday if we got it done thenDon't even think it will come to that

Cov: HUL, WRX
Boro: MIL, IPS, WRX
Mil: HUL, IPS, BORO,
Ips: HUL, MIL, BORO

that lot looks intriguing don't it??? lots of points to drop/pick up. We only have 2 games to worry about, a nice situation to be in sit back and watch it all unfold.
Would be great to go up as champions and them in second. The the hell ‘we are premier league’ ball lot and Ipswich missing out in the play-offs.MILLLLLLLLLLLLLL*

Had they beaten Pompey recently they’d be in a great position. They haven’t got the legs for it imo.Be unbelievable if millwall finished 2nd wouldnt it
To be honest, my view is that it’ll be quite comfortable in the end. Ipswich have to play 7 games in 21 days or something? I think they beat Millwall and Boro to 2nd but finishing top is a stretch too far imo.21 points surely would be enough for automatic promotion
That would give us 89 points
12 games to go , we might only need 6 wins and 3 draws. So, we could afford 3 losses. That's eminently doable isn't it.
Psychologically for Boro especially it'll be awful if we end up that far clear despite the respective runs of form each team were in at the turn of the year.To be honest, my view is that it’ll be quite comfortable in the end.

Win on Saturday and we go 8 points top with Boro playing Birmingham on Monday who have only lost once at home this season. Realistically, we’ll remain 7 points top if they draw.

In January yes, but Boro had some poor results in December themselves, to lose 2 away games as well as pick up 1 point at home over Xmas was pretty poor for them. They probably needed to overtake us sooner with a buffer going into our tie because for us to be knocked off top to take it back 1 week later must’ve also been a big psychological kick in the teeth.Psychologically for Boro especially it'll be awful if we end up that far clear despite the respective runs of form each team were in at the turn of the year.

He’s also v calm and level headed which is good imo. Lampard clearly stayed the course with some of his tactical ideas before changing it up significantly when it was apparent it wasn’t working as intended. Flailing about and trying to change things up week on week is weak leadership.I didn't watch the whole game against Leicester, but it looked like their players were getting frustrated each other.
Hellbergs comments in his post-match interview too.
It looks like (hopefully) they might be losing their heads as the pressure builds.
This is why having someone like Lampard as your manager is perfect for these types of scenarios; He has been there and done it.
I would like them to come up with us as I have a good mate that follows themBe unbelievable if millwall finished 2nd wouldnt it

You're glad it's ended again?Glad it is.
Win on Saturday and we can mathematically not be relegatedView attachment 49455
I'm trying to create a visualisation of who can mathmatically/theoretically (not realistically!) get into the top 2. It's is very basic and only considers number of points available to each team in isolation. It obviously doesnt take into account where teams play each other etc - I can't think of a way to show this.
Blue = Could reach 1st
Green = Could reach 2nd
Red = Eliminated
Probably a bit early for it, but I will update after each set of games and it should start to get interesting.
Win on Saturday and there's a strong probability we would already have enough for play offs with 7th spot (Southampton) currently tracking at 68 points. Winning the next two would definitely secure it.Win on Saturday and we can mathematically not be relegated
Yep I agree with thatWin on Saturday and there's a strong probability we would already have enough for play offs with 7th spot (Southampton) currently tracking at 68 points. Winning the next two would definitely secure it.
