I have a feeling Wrectum beat Ipswich in the play off semis. Want Millwall to win them though, or just go up in second place.

Deadpool will offer them all a part in a movie if they do it and they’ll play out of their skins. Ipswich don’t have the juice. Can’t even beat Leicester at home. Is us, Boro and Hollywood FC.
Which annoyingly will mean they’re going after all the same type of players with silly money. But maybe we can sell them Torp for £10m or something again.
That's just ridiculous.they were shite against us
Like Sunderland didn't last year?Ipswich don’t have the juice.
The meltdown when they lose to a soft 94th min pen at WembleyI scanned through itI'm starting to feel like its Boro over Ipswich personally, as well as us, of course.
I also have a feeling they'd fuck it in the play offs which would be hilarious.
Nah, I'm not here to be loved, if that was my aim I could definitely think of a few better places.

If that was me though, the snorkel would be red though, just saying. And I can't say I've ever beaten off over a Boro result, though the League Cup final and the UEFA semis win probably came closest.
I was once "on the nest" with a charming lady friend whilst our match day commentary happened to be on the radio in the background mind you and by sheer luck Mikkel Beck happened to blast a goal home at the perfect moment. But I've put enough walls of text on here tonight, so I'll spare you the rest of the details.

There're still a lot of points to play for, and they'll be some strange results yet. I'm not predicting anything, and certainly not writing off the club with the strongest squad in the division.
That's also a ridiculous statement. They have automatic promotion in their own hands.Ipswich are ... failing
They’re more likely to go up automatically than Boro, IMO.That's also a ridiculous statement. They have automatic promotion in their own hands.
I wouldn't be surprised to see them finish more strongly than anyone. Not to say they will, but I wouldn't be surprised.They’re more likely to go up automatically than Boro, IMO.
With Charlton, the Baggies and QPR after they face us I wouldn't be surprised to see them finish the season the strongest of the top 4 either tbh. If so this could feasibly get them over the line OR it could get them in good form for the playoffs.I wouldn't be surprised to see them finish more strongly than anyone.

Other than points on the board, ours (and Millwall's) advantage over Ipswich is the nature of the fixtures. They have more away games than home by a decent chunk, so will have to address that, plus the pile up continues with their Saints game getting moved due to Saints' Cup run too, meaning it's getting more likely that they'll have one plopped in the open midweek, right before they play us. The advantages they have are that both their head to heads are at home (and of course the eternal game in hand)
Millwall have a better ratio of Homes and aways than Ipswich, but not as good as ours. Their major disadvantages are they play a game less than Ipswich, have BOTH their head to heads away from the den amd are the only one of us NOT to play Sheff Wed.
However, like a lot of posters on here I can still see a few scenarios in which we could fu(k it up. Experience dies hard after all. We also have a Hoodoo game remaining against Bristol City (yeah, I know you lot are sceptical about THOSE) which I fully anticipate points getting dropped in! one of the main reasons I've been probably one of the most rational about your chances, even stating I didn't see your not going up during THAT run you had over winter is that I can look at your side's merits objectively, due to being less emotionally invested. I can't say that about my own team's chances though, it doesn't work like that!
Shite, I've given you another great big wall of text again! Sorry about that.
Won't soon enough! 🫣That's also a ridiculous statement. They have automatic promotion in their own hands.
Yes of course, more than here it probably won't surprise you to know. On our own forum there's a Hull, Bournemouth and Norwich fan who are on quite a bit. Sunderland occasionally and there used to be a regular Derby poster on all the time, but she died unfortunately.Do you ever actually post on your own teams forum?
*Team's.your own teams forum
There are things I'm desperate for; the desire to take throw-away comments on the internet seriously isn't one of them, trust me.We’ll see. Clearly you are desperate to make “the juice” a scientific and deadly serious prediction so crack on.

My point is the general attitude to Wrexham, not pertaining to the Chelsea game per se. They've been treated throughout their Hollywood financed rise as if they are plucky little underdogs with no resources doing it against the odds, whereas the reality is that they have entirely bought their success and a budget that dwarfs their rivals. Whilst doing it, they have made a sickening TV show framing it as a fairytale. Since their arrival in this division they have helped, along with Birmingham, to drive the already exorbitant price of Championship players through the roof. Its bogus hypocritical bullshit. and you know it is.I guess the penny dropped for Rosenior as to the enormity of the task when Wrexham showed their might by bringing Josh Windass on to finish the job
Ipswich would happily swap places with ourselves and Middlesborough. We both have the points on the board, with us 10 points ahead and Middlesborough 5 points ahead with just 1 game in hand. Also, most of their remaining games are away.They’re more likely to go up automatically than Boro, IMO.
I'm not just on about Boro, but yes plenty of people on here absolutely flap it every time a team puts a few wins together,
hilarious how we’ve turned this into some kind of relegation battleA long way to go. Most Cov fans will be on edge until we're mathematically safe.

My main concern is we still haven't been playing that well for a few months despite grinding out results. Yeah I know that's the sign of a good side but I'd like to see us click again and actually play really well for 90 mins.
Agree with this but it seems to be Lampards style. We aren’t easy on the eye or dominating teams or playing pretty football. Just extremely effective at winning game after game.
I've thought this not absolutely, but to a degree before. You're kind of like the championship version of Chelsea under Mourinho during the years when they dominated the Prem? You're perfectly capable of popping up with a "wow" performance too, such as your 7-1 in the first half of the season among others, but the second half of the season for Mourinho's 00s side was all about grinding out wins to get them over the line. It's bloody effective though and most sides need a degree of that to their game if they want to be successful.Agree with this but it seems to be Lampards style.

I don't buy into us being a bad watch anyway. Goals are what fans live for and we consistently rack them up. Neither do we employ shithouse anti football tactics much which is why it was a surprise Rushworth did at Sheffield United what is done to us pretty much every week.We were easy on the eye early season. Just came a time to be more pragmatic.
If/when we go up, I doubt we'll be a good watch next season.

Burnley are an example of a team that stink their way to promotion.
We've certainly gone that way as the season has gone on. I think we'll probably have to go a lot more stinky to survive next season.I’m not saying we’re anti football. Just we do what’s needed to win games. We aren’t Burnley but we aren’t a Leeds. Were Lampards Coventry. I think the Mourinho comparison is a good one.

Horrible team and another one I'll be happy to finally be above in the food chain again.I'd be fuming if we had Burnleys resources and played like they did last season in the championship.
Fair enough in the PL when you're battling for survival.
