Obviously hoping for a Sky Blue win, but not convinced that we will get it. Could be yet another draw for us, or god forbid, worse case scenario, yet another away defeat.

We need these teams above to do their bit to aid our cause.

Suppose Burnley is the most worrying. Midtable, safe but on the slide, at Pompey who have won their last two home games.

Derby and Palace both have outside chances to get into the play-offs, so you would have to say that they should be well up for it today and Cardiff of course do still have a very good chance of the play-offs.

If we win, then great, that would of course be excellent, but wouldn't it be so much better if these other results went our way today too!!

Can't believe for one minute that they will all go our away, but I guess if we had a choice for failure it would be at Fratton Park and Ashton Gate today.

So ...... how do we think the games will pan out?

My prediction is;

Bristol 2 - 2 Derby (though have a sneaking feeling Bristol may just edge this one)
Cardiff 2 -1 Millwall
Palace 1- 2 Forest
Pompey 1 - 0 Burnley

Worst scenario for us of course is Pompey and Bristol winning and us losing.

No idea what we are going to get from the City today.

Could be a nervy afternoon.

I would rather Bristol win than pompey. Pompey being the biggest threat I think. Things may not look good again after today unless we take things into our own hands and get a win

Will definitely be a nervy afternoon. Can see bristol winning today, millwall drawing at Cardiff and Portsmouth beating Burnley. Take a draw from our game but would love 3 points

You surely wouldn't want Bristol to win if we lost though would you?

which ever way you look at it

BIG day today. I'd be more than happy to be "as you were" at the end of today, thats pretty much the best we can hope for

We cannot rely on other teams doing the business for us, we need to win today end of!

My stance is though (as is many others) that a draw today would be excellent. It won't be in the scheme of things though if Forest and Bristol pull further away and Pompey overtake us with wins.

No problem today, we go in full of confidence and Hull on the back of 3 defeats. THIS is the time to play them. I hate predictions, but I'm quietly confident today!

Wish i had your confidence. Sincerely hope you're right.

Think that one away win will change everyone's mindsets, even those who are adamant that we are going down.

Are we saying that Hull are there for the taking?

I think they'll be looking at our away form and thinking the same.

They must be feeling confident you would have thought against the only team out of all 4 leagues that has failed to win away.

We did say Forest were there for the taking too. Remember what happened there?

Well that is what we always wanted. To be in a position where Bristol had to beat us rather than the other way round.
