1/9 with skybet. Implied probability of 90%.

We will never get another chance like this.
I fully believe we'll finish in automatics and by Birmingham away, we'll know for sure because this is our most difficult period of the season now.

Sky Bet won't even take your money if you're betting on us finishing in the playoffs. Mathematically, it's more or less guaranteed because even averaging 1 ppg gets us to 69 points and might even be enough for playoffs.

Kevin Keegan’s Newcastle famously blew a 12 point lead they held in January to allow Man Utd the title, but even that wouldn’t deny us promotion.

It’s all very surreal at the minute. It’s odd but I feel almost a bit numb to it.

Every game we go into I’m genuinely expecting a win.

Don’t get me wrong I’m absolutely loving it, it’s weird being a Cov fan and people actually knowing a) who we are and b) up to date information (top of the table, 10 points, massive GD etc).

After years of saying I’m a Cov fan at work events, I get little response. Last week I presented to a very non-football audience in London, did my usual few CCFC references. and people actually asked me questions about it (not many on the actual topic of my talk but you can’t win them all).

It’s all stuff I’ve seen happen to friends / colleagues of other teams and it doesn’t feel real it’s now us.

The journey since that L2 semi away Notts County has been incredible.

Probably in the minority,but certainly not alone by a long chalk.
I keep thinking surely we have to lose sooner or later, but it ain’t happening.
Only missed Wrexham this season, due to miss Preston.
Thinking I am gonna have to upset family and sod off to Preston on my own. Just be in the dog house for a while.

I should be able to enjoy it. I just can’t help but feel like we’ll fuck it up and it’s the best chance for a long time and probably a long time after!

The only game I didn’t wear my lucky bucket hat was the Wrexham game. My wife has hidden it because I’m refusing to go to a Country and Western night out in Nottingham tonight. Keep an eye on the news later there is a high chance of an incident in North Leics involving a married couple in their late 50’s.

To me, it feels like every game is as important as the last. Memories of relegation battles when in the top flight still loom large.

It’s just as enthralling. TBH I want a similar euphoria as the Man United game but with the win.

Agree with this but we keep having our best ever chance then getting a better one.
