Match Thread Coventry City - Sheffield Wednesday Match Thread - Saturday 11th Apr (39 Viewers)

We can confirm promotion on Saturday, without Ipswich even being in the picture , so I don't think that is that important , though it would be really nice

If both Millwall and Boro fail to win and we beat Sheff Weds, we are promoted and that's official.

The Ipswich game would only help in terms of the probability of us becoming champions

It's important to me. I really have little interest in being second. I get that just being in the Premier League is an achievement. Winning the championship trophy is what matters to me. Others don't have to agree.

I agree that it would taint things slightly, but I'm pretty certain that 2 wins from 5 will do it.

I don't think we'll confirm it this weekend.
Fancy baggies to take something off Millwall but can't see boro dropping points to Portsmouth.

Lads, I think we might win this one.

Will be better sealing it at Blackburn anyway.

Would we need a win there or will a point do (permutations anyone?)

I'll genuinely be gutted if we don't win the league now. Which is crazy as I would have sold both of my children to the highest bidder in August if I was offered second.

Think if clinching at home is off table most would prefer to clinch away to Blackburn rather than 5pm Saturday

Then maybe title can be confirmed Vs Pompey

Promotion 1 point at blackburn if we win saturday

If those 2 drop points and we win, it's done

Promtion is done at 5pm Saturday if both Millwall and Boro fail to win and we beat Wednesday

Millwall/Boro draw it gives them a maximum return of 85, lose it is 84.

In theory we could go up automatically without winning another point.

Lets get Russell Slade back in to finish the job then

I knew that, then I didn't, now I do again.

My heads spinning!

Promotion is done if we win on Saturday.
The party begins when we seal the title, in my book - which won't be at Blackburn.

Get the flags on seats ready for the Wrexham game Doug…. Ooops was I not meant to tell everyone 🫣

I've put this in another thread

If we win this weekend and promotion is confirmed then a board marking the achievement is likely to be erected after the game at Blackburn Rovers on Friday, April 17, where over 7,000 fans will be making the trip for the televised game at Ewood Park.

but the way I see it there's going to be numerous parties/celebrations,
1. for promotion which might be confirmed this weekend,
2. the promotion board at Blackburn to confirm it
3 for title confirmation at home to Portsmouth
4.for the title lift at home to Wrexham
and then one for the parade.

So all in all we are getting pissed from this weekend onwards

...PUSB

 

[Warwickhunt]

The Norwich v Ipswich game is more important for us. Let's face it, if we win on Saturday, only Ipswich have any chance of catching us. Millwall and Middlesbrough will have disappeared in the rear view mirror mere dots.
On that basis we will know at 2.30 on Saturday the result of Norwich v Ipswich and will be able to predict with confidence promotion and, possibly, the title.

Just beat Sheffield Weddnesday first then think about it! They are not coming here to lay down and let us walk over them!

Any kind of performance from us and we win easily.
