9 points from 2 games?

Sheffield Wednesday? I've read the plot. Just turn up and take the 3 points. Most of their games are close. We occasionally have games that we control but struggle to score. I expect us to win but it isn't a given.

If we win our next 3 it's 89. That includes the Wednesday game

I get that. But we were talking about the next 2 then Wednesday as a given joins in.

We will get enough points. But I wouldn't be surprised if Wednesday managed a draw against us.

Even though it would be the most CCFC thing ever to lose to them, it’s not going to happen and we’ll smash them.

Sheff W. is just another game, we have 7 left. I wouldn't be surprised if we are unbeaten in the remaining games but I would be very surprised if we lose more than 1 or 2.

We're not going to win every remaining game. I've looked at our remaining games and considered what's the most Coventry City thing that could happen. We'll continue to win games but that one is getting to me

I think Derby will be tricky, wouldn't be surprised to see a draw - especially with the players coming back from internationals. Hull will be open - they are having to win, depending how Good Friday results go - so huge pressure on them

Wednesday's 1 win was against Portsmouth on 20th September, game week 6. If they beat us assuming they don't win a game before then that would end a 35 match run without a win. Surely a record, and another one for the history books in our record breaking season.

No. He’s talking about beating them after also winning the two before.

It’ll be a tough game but they’re another team that hasn’t got good results against the top teams in the division away from home. This is another fixture you’d expect us to win.

Lost to Millwall, Hull, Watford on the road and Ipswich at home this side of NY.

They’re another team that can’t afford to draw this game because the teams around them are winning. It’s not like the bottom 4-5 where a draw probably gains them points on the teams around them.

Agree with this, the Wednesday game is too soon. It will be Blackburn or Pompey

I suppose a draw on Good Friday between Millwall and Boro makes it a possibility that we could ‘be on’ for an unofficial promotion party v Wednesday. That’s dependent on us beating Hull and 2-3 results going our way. We probably can’t be 16 points clear that game but more than likely 3 wins on the bounce for those games makes Blackburn a likely date we mathematically go up.

If we win all our remaining games, we don't have to fuck around with maths.

I suggest we do that.

Shout out to this guy who posted this after we lost to Monaco and just before they lost to Burton Albion

He was dead right about us not being promotion rivals in his defence

Boro drawing 2 games (not impossible) and us winning our next 3 guarantees promotion.

What if Millwall get 4 points and Ipswich win their Easter Monday (no Good Friday fixture for them) game?

Edit: You’re right, all teams would be on 73 points and we’d be on 86 going into Sheff Wednesday. Presuming we win that’d 89 points with all chasing teams with 76 points.

From my POV, I want Millwall to beat Boro because I fancy Norwich to beat Millwall on Easter Monday.

i'd forgotten about that game. monaco were amazing especially 2nd half. i wonder if any of their players fancy a go in the prem? checking the stats 5 goals with 6 shots- no rushworth in that match for us.

They've got Wout Faes now, so we'd probably hammer them in a rematch.

Yeah tricky game Derby. Still in the race for the playoffs. I like their 5 players that can go in their front 4 (Agyemang, Morris, Szmodics, Brereton-Diaz, Brewster). We're on blistering form again though, 7 wins in our last 8 games.

We all have the scars and remember trips like Forest Green, Yeovil, Sutton and Northampton for us older ones but this team is different, this ownership is different, doesn't stop the odd slip up but we have to shift our view that this is happening, we are doing it and we are top because of that. So if we do draw against Wednesday, as per this season, we will see a reaction, we will then see others drop points and no doubt, we will close it out.
I'm feeling positive today, I still have days where I question everything I just wrote above but genuinely think we are good this year,
