Two of the games we need to keep an eye on have red cards. Would be nice if WBA would crumble and Hull find the resolve to hold on.

So many moving parts to watch, bloody love that we are still bang in it

Aim of the game has to be staying top of the pile going into the three game run of top four sides. We’ll probably drop a couple of places over that. We’re ahead of schedule for 70pts though and that’s what matters.

If we lose to everyone above us, beat everyone bottom half and draw with anyone top half but below us, we get W5 D2 L3. That’s a fairly pessimistic take and gets us 73.

Need to take a note from Bobby, all that matters is Tuesday. Derby are going to be fighting for their lives so absolutely won't be an easy match. The 3 after that is a brutal run

Yeah, I’d take a draw at Derby. A win is utopia

I know no one gives a shit but just hopped onto other teams around us forums for entertainment and it’s brilliant.

Nicely set up for midweek, obviously need to get the result away at Derby but our closest rivals are playing Burnley and Sheffield United. Could be a huge week for our chances

Sounded a poor effort by QPR to have extra player for 45 mins and not score

There is going to be a point soon when the middling teams in no danger of the drop or creeping into the playoffs start switching off, sadly it's only really Pompey that fall into that category for us currently. But I guess Luton and Plymouth may be gonners by the time we get to them and Middlesbrough might be too far adrift

Yeh I would cut it off at Sheffield Wednesday too

8 teams left fighting for 2 spots. Lets get rid of 1-2 more midweek

If we think 70 points is a realistic target for the Play Offs, then I would say its between us, WBA, Bristol City, and at a push Blackburn. Middlesbrough and Norwich would need to average 2 points a game for the remainder of the season, which isn't likely.

Leeds are facing a biligerant Portsmouth here, Ogilvy just clashed with the goalie and got away with just a warning while Leeds were denied a penalty at the other end,,Rob Jones the ref, he was the one against UTD? Apparently he also denied Portsmouth one earlier on!

For me I'm still most worried about wba Middlesbrough and Norwich

Not ruling out Blackburn and Bristol obviously but still feel like Norwich and Boro are bigger dangers of making top 6(and yes I'm aware of terrible run Boro on)

If their last 10 games were all against us, they would be top-6 certs!

They still have to play Bristol City, West Brom, Sunderland, Burnley and Boro. Granted we have to play 4 of those but we have the 7 point lead

For me it’s Bristol and WBA. Bristol are unbeaten in 5 and have a decent squad, so definitely dark horses.
WBA are WBA.

I'm the most worried about Bristol, but the game against albion at home could turn out to be absolutely massive

Edit : that being said , Bristol have a very hard run in
