1st Coventry WON 65pts
------------------------------------
2nd Middlesbrough DRAW 62pts
_____________________________
Millwall LOST 56 pts
Ipswich LOST 54 pts (2 games in hand)
Hull LOST 54 pts (1 game in hand)
Wrexham WON 50 pts
Preston LOST 47 pts

3 PTS to 2nd
9 PTS to 3rd
Elimination threshold: 15pts

The best day this thread has seen. 2-5th all dropped pts after we won!

Millwall and hull are in it PTS wise but for me it's between us Ipswich and Boro. More good weeks like this and premier league here we come. It's not a fantasy anymore

Threshold met to eliminate Preston. Goodbye and hope we only meet in the cups in the future, preferably at home!

Only one side in the top six has a better last six than us - Boro. And we're still top by three.
Looking decent.

Appreciate the posts but they lack a bit of context without saying how many matches teams have played which someone did on another thread.

_____________________________

Elimination threshold: 15pts

When we win it's always a good week but this was a big one. Not only did we beat a fancied team away from home and really out away form out of mind. We also won and cause agony for all the teams that did win but still didn't gain on us. It also takes some pressure if us having to win every single home game.

And on top of that Boro dropped pts! We all want to lift that famous trophy surely?

Only 12 games left. 6 wins might be enough. It really could be happening for us lads

1st Coventry WON 71pts
------------------------------------
2nd Middlesbrough WON 66pts
_____________________________
Ipswich WON 63 pts (1 game in hand)
Millwall WON 62 pts
Hull LOST 60 pts
Wrexham WON 56 pts


5 PTS to 2nd
8 PTS to 3rd
Elimination threshold: 15pts

As lima Gallagher says, it's "as you were".

However we are one game closer to the finish line. If we do our job most weeks it will likely be enough. Ipswich and Boro the ones to worry about for sure. One game in hand left, if they win that then we only have 5pt cushion to playoff zone.

Hull pretty much done now as they don't play particularly well either.

Hopefully a good weekend is upon us as 1-2 excellent weeks in terms of opposition scorelines could help us pretty much clinch without the stress. Here's hoping!

Ipswich and Boro still have to play each other which is massive for us as atleast one of them will be guaranteed to drop points

For me it's a situation where things could get defined for us over next 2-3 games

Yes it cnanto bad and we can be pulled right back into danger of missing out on premier league

BUT

It could also go swimmingly and we have pretty much done it by time we play Wednesday at home.

Bring it on. I would take a draw Vs Bristol away mind you. One point closer to the goal

Definitely wouldn’t take a draw, as you say we’re at the point where 2/3 games could be huge- we could go 8-10 points clear with less than 10 to play, or get sucked back in to a 3 way battle.

Losing if the other two win will feel crushing for any of the 3 involved.

More that if we draw we can’t put 2/3 points on anyone who drops points.

Need to confirm the narrative that Ipswich/Boro are just fighting for 2nd place asap

1st Coventry WON 74pts
------------------------------------
2nd Middlesbrough WON 69pts
_____________________________
Millwall WON 65 pts
Ipswich DRAW 64 pts (1 game in hand)
Hull LOST 60 pts
Wrexham PP 57 pts( 1 game in hand)


5 PTS to 2nd
9 PTS to 3rd
Elimination threshold: 15pts

A big weekend which really has us get closer to the finish line. Boro separate themselves from the pack as well as our main contenders for the title. They dropped pts after we beat them but many were draws so their overall form is still very good.

It was never gonna be too easy I guess but we are in an amazing position and shouldn't forget that

After next round of games the elimination threshold will go down to 12pts as will only be 9 games left. Hopefully we will be eliminating hull and wrexham

10 games to go. Just 4-5 good updates on this thread could see us promoted to the premier league!!!
