Forget about the fa cup game, the league is our bread and butter and we need help from elsewhere as well but the results in L1 went all against us today.. doncaster, swindon and stevenage all won..

We can't do anything about other results, just need to get back on a winning run and see where it takes us.

R we still five points off the play offs.
Yet the game in hand that most teams had over us has gone?
Or am I looking and a unupdated table?

Still 5 points off the play-offs, but still lots of teams around us with extra game or two to play than us.

12th looking about right as position for us.

I am sure the majority of teams has a game in hand on us, now it only seems to be quite a few less.

I don't think today has harmed us at all really

concentrate on our own game and those 5 points will disappear, we have shown we are better than Donny, MK Dons etc already...

Just like bottom half was looking about right....closer to the bottom 4 as well.

You always seem to be so sure we will not reach top 6 but will be mid table. I say 6th. How about putting money where mouth is

BSB is collecting for charity. We have a wager and if I win you pass winnings to him. You say 12th. I say 6th. Call 9th a draw. Above 9th I win and below 9th you win

Don't say that! I said 14th and got slaughtered.

You deserve at least a mini slaughter for 12th.

Including when I was calling us for the top 6 even when we were in the bottom 4? Or saying how wrong my lad was about Jennings?

BSB says thanks for the tenner :claping hands: Don't worry, I will be doubling it for him.

Big difference is if I win it all goes to charity and I add some to it. If I lose I pay out of my pocket.

Do you have a problem with this?

I am still getting slaughtered for saying 14th, yet after a fantastic unbeaten run I am only just 2 places out at the mo!

Good job Wilko's don't sell pitchforks!

You didn't miss when we were in the bottom 4........12 games later we are within touching distance of top 6 which you said was not going to happen and I was deluded to think so.

I am glad you are always right

Carry on playing as we currently are and we won't have any problems reaching the play offs. The amount of chances we create is ridiculous and one of the reasons I don't think the loss of McGoldrick is going to be a huge turning point.

I thought we'd finish about 12th, updated it to around 8th recently, you think we'll finish in the top 6, currently we're 12th.

Do you sell chickens on the side? But never seem to have as many as you thought you would have due to premature counting?

I'm honestly not sure where we will finish.

Love the concept though and think we should have a board where we can do this will any sort of bets...

If you count 12th to 6th premature what do you call when we were in the bottom 4 as when I was predicting? Before the chicken AND the egg? :facepalm: :claping hands:

Deluded?

What were you predicting before the season started?

Outright was it?

Top work Astute! Just need Robins and co to do their bit Very frustrating that we'd be threatening the automatic spots had we not chucked so many points away.
