Been saying all season that 71 / 72 points might be enough, looking at the table now I think with 3 wins and a draw we stand half a chance, especially if we can push our goal difference up a bit.
Sheff U have an easier run in but that didn't help them today.

Glad to see Fadz back. Thought he was done for the season but he deserves to around for the run in. Good character to have in and about it too. Kelly can add some leadership alongside him, even if from the bench.

Enjoyed his challenge on Hogan maybe? Or someone anyway, shortly after he came on. Just wrapped his arms around them falling backwards and dragged them to the floor. Ref gave nothing!

Whatever happens we’re in with a shout with at most two games left. Excellent achievement. Seasons over though

I think he did brilliantly for the last goal. I think he knew he wasn’t going to score so had to get the keeper to do something.

He didn't have his best game today but we are going to miss Dabo. His recent form has shown what he is capable of. Feel sorry for him.

Well it certainly looks like they came back off the beach. However, that middle period below was, now in hindsight, ridiculously frustrating. We won one game in seven. It is easy to see why people were getting frustrated.

The last two results have been incredible, not that I think many of us were expecting it!

Win on Monday and my steely acceptance that it's been a great season but the playoffs are a step too far may fall apart.

Whether or not Steve Cook is even still associated with them it is well overdue to get them back.

A lot of teams will be able to find similar, but if they had given a penalty for that foul on Gyo at Blackburn, or not given Derby that penalty for the 'foul' by Sheaf, the gap could be 1 point off or 1 point clear regarding play offs.

Anybody else think, when Blues went 2-0 up, oh well. it's been a great season, never mind! Now Bournemouth game will be a lot more fun to look forward to. Cheers City - the team that keeps on giving !

How can you say that but not mention godden dive that got us a pen?

We are where we are. League table doesn't lie after 40 odd games

Yes, I know what you mean. It just feels very frustrating now given that it was so recently.

Trying to keep my feet on the ground now. It is doable, but we need to win our own games and then jump Middlesborough, Blackburn, and Sheffield United.

I am not worried about Mowbray, but the other two have fairly comfortable fixtures.

I said it awhile ago and I said it last season, people were banging on about lack of goals when it was leaking them that was the issue.

Annoying that without that dodgy Derby penalty (and therefore equaliser), we'd be just 1 point behind 6th
Haha...just spotted the post saying exactly the same thing, 2 minutes before me lol

According to Oggy that would be 39 points taken from 15 games where the opposition play 4 at the back.

At least Gyok kicked the ball goal wards, and it was cleared off the line...it looked like Waghorn completely missed it.

Still bitterly disappointed with Sheath. Spent most of the season backing him to score and getting me a fine earner. As soon as I give up on him, look what happens
