I checked 2 bookies and both have us as second favourite behind Rotherham to both win the league and get promoted. We’re level on points with a game in hand, should we be favourite?
Simply reflects the betting market
Didn’t batter us it was a freak game with dodgy goals & decisionsRotgerham also battered us earlier in the season so that plays a factor.
Let's see what the bookies think after the Sunderland game.

Not if we smoke them 5-0The fact that Rotherham have a far superior goal difference will also be a factor.
I like your optimism now buy a lottery ticket and I will have halfNot if we smoke them 5-0
More consistent? We've only been beaten 3 times all season, we're 4th in the "home" table and 3rd in the "away" table, we've not had any really hot streaks or really bad streaks of results. Id say we are the model of consistency.If we win that game then watch it change however but agree with Otis. They have been more consistent throughout the season but let’s face it it’s anyone’s out of about 6 who can keep going
I am not so sure half a lottery ticket is worth anything.I like your optimism now buy a lottery ticket and I will have half
You look at the top 6 and all the big hitters are in there albeit Ipswich who should be instead of Wycombe who are rightly there on merit.Sat on a coach travelling back on Saturday and one pessimistic fan still wasn't committed to us making the play offs!
No it wasn't, McFazdean was rightly sent off and their forwards were two big lads that gave our defense a torrid time.Didn’t batter us it was a freak game with dodgy goals & decisions
We had a player sent off & conceded 2 penalties is that not a freak result ? Show me a game in the past month in the whole on England that ended that way.No it wasn't, McFazdean was rightly sent off and their forwards were two big lads that gave our defense a torrid time.
Worse I've seen Cov play for a couple of years.

Both penalties were penalties. It weren't a freak results, we played crap and were undisciplined.We had a player sent off & conceded 2 penalties is that not a freak result ? Show me a game in the past month in the whole on England that ended that way.
we did get bullied well mason did at left back where crosses constantly came in from probably what got him dropped in favour of McCallum for.
We've lost 3 games all season, only 1 team from the 91 has lost less, we've conceded the second fewest goals in the division & if it weren't for that game it would be the least conceded- there is absolutely no doubt that was a freak resultBoth penalties were penalties.

Sheff Wed lost 5-0 at home to mid-table Blackburn last month. They had one player sent off and conceded an own goal.

and one of the reason previous opponents for us is low, as we have beaten most of them!Found this analysis of teams' run-ins until end of season on SoccerStats. Interestingly we have on paper the most difficult run in, alongside Doncaster based on average points per game of the teams we have yet to play. Ipswich then Peterborough have the easiest run in based on PPG. Ourselves, Sunderland, Portsmouth and Fleetwood's next 4 fixtures all look relatively more difficult, against teams averaging 1.45 PPG or higher (ours being highest at 1.53). Will be an interesting end to the season.

That would need Fleetwood probably to get 24 points from 14I think points needed for play offs may be higher this season, around 75/76 simply because no one is running away with autos.
That would need Fleetwood probably to get 24 points from 14
possible, but they then play Portsmouth twice who would then need 22 points from 12
And then Peterboro 20 from 11
And dont worry - we will Run away with the autos!
We're 0.19 more difficult that Peterborough but have 3 extra games to play and are already two points ahead. We'd have to seriously nosedive to finish below them in my opinion.Found this analysis of teams' run-ins until end of season on SoccerStats.

Yes, but notoriously, that can count for nothing, because teams seemingly all but doomed, or in danger of going down, often turn the form book on its head as the season draws to a close, and start winning.Found this analysis of teams' run-ins until end of season on SoccerStats.

Agreed, but it may not be Peterborough who finish above us (hopefully no one will), the point being we are clearly playing more teams who are higher in the league and still have their own hopes of play offs or autos.We're 0.19 more difficult that Peterborough but have 3 extra games to play and are already two points ahead. We'd have to seriously nosedive to finish below them in my opinion.
