Looks like we got away with losing today aside Ipswich winning, other results went in our favour. We need to make our own destiny though and stop 'getting away with it'

Explain how one defeat after six straight wins is "getting away with it"?

If we don’t manage to get 7/8 points out the next 9 games then we wouldn’t deserve to go up
Think ultimately we’ve proven we have the quality. Pressure is the only thing that could be an obstacle especially as many of the players haven’t done this before. Want to keep the gap as far as possible to avoid any talk of another ‘blip’ from media around. Sky were already trying to spin that narrative.

Southampton are such massive shite bags that I actually want Wrectum to keep them out of the play offs. Congratulations boys, you've made the list.
If we get promoted games will be just as frustrating. They managed us well today from the off.
although the missed headers by Woolfenden and Wright were a gift.

We need 3 more wins to get promotion out of 9 games, that’s basically relegation form

I want that silverware more than I want the Premier League tbh
In that case you're officially loco.

If someone said to me "You can win the league, get this shiny pot, but due to a technicality get disqualified from getting promoted and have to go through this rigmarole again next season with the same old faces"...OR "You can finish either first or second - to be decided as the season finishes - and go up" there is no way in hell I would pick the first option🤣

Oh come on, its fairly obvious! We lost, but aside from Ipswich, who were playing rock bottom SW and took over an hour to score, other teams in the mix also lost or drew. Our gap at the top only got dinted by 1 point. Had Boro and Millwall also won, it would be a bit more squeaky bum until the end of th season.

I don't know what that means. Most Prem teams won't play like that against us, they'll just play to beat us with their better quality. I'll just be glad to be there and hopefully put up a good fight.
Hopefully Southampton are still in The Championship, I thought they were horrible tbh, in both games. Just classless dirty wankers.

Definitely trolling or crazy, promotion is much bigger than winning a title. Nobody cares about who won the league, all that matters is getting that P next to our name
You do realise that if we win the title we get a go in the Premier League as well? The English Championship is an indelible permanent honour.

I'd say that's about right.

Ipswich would have to get 5 wins in 9 to get there and they are playing Boro and Millwall.

Boro need to win 4 and draw 1 in 8 playing Ipswich Millwall and being in shit form.

Millwall would need to 5 win in 8 playing Ipswich and Boro.

We however, need two wins in 8 to get that and we have a far superior goal difference. We also have Wednesday still to play.
Ipswich and Boro could easily do that.
We need to make sure we get more than that threshold!

Unfortunately for us, every team we are playing except Watford and Wednesday are playing to stay up or get into the playoffs!

Got a feeling we'll draw a few games in the run in...

Not sure they could easily do it.

Today ive seen the customary " how are these top " post by a saints fan

But an even better post by a sheffield united fan that said if they had a better summer theyd be pissing the league

Yeh man if The Blunts signed Mbappe I'm sure they'd be pissing it. Opportunity missed.

When your goalkeeper is MOTM it’s generally best to pipe down with that shite.
