Play offs

[Acko17]

I think we need eighty points to be sure..maybe a bit less.

Can we get eighty points is the question ?

Personaly already think been a great season especially the duffy goal silencing the bounces..

Cheers

if we need 80 points, I think we can forget it

21 points from a possible 27 and averaging more than 2 points per game is a bridge too far for me

Still to play:

Boro
Preston
Brizzle
Cardiff
Milwall
Brentford

Could be wrong and I hope I am, but alas

A 80 points target is just speculation and over complicating it B58, the fact of the matter is that we’re 2 points off 6th and 3 off 5th with all the teams having 9 games to play. Are we really saying that making up 2 or 3 points over 9 games is a bridge too far?

We’ve as much chance as anybody else from 5 down IMO buddy, and they’ll be a few ups and downs fkr a few teams yet.

Well argued. However the only team above us looking like dropping any significant points is Derby. Thy still have Wolves, Cardiff, Boro, Villa and Preston still to play which could easily see them miss out. Shame we don't get to play them again!

I reckon we need at least 76 points to pip Preston and Derby to 6th place. That's 4 wins and 5 draws with no defeats. Possible?

We don't really do draws. Think of it as 6 wins out of 9.

I can't see us winning 6 of the remaining fixtures though. 5 wins 2 draws 2 defeats maybe?

Whoever finishes 6th won't need 80 points. Probably won't need that for 5th. Look at Derbys run in and their normal crash and burn end of season.

If we beat The Scabs we are aiming for 6th or 5th.

I'm expecting it to be just out of reach this time, but you never know for sure till its happened..!

That’s probably my gut feeling but there’s no reason on earth why we can’t make it. I looked at the league table on Sky after the game and I thought WOW. What a fantastic first season back, anything else is a bonus, but our gap is minimal, we just need to hit some consistency, not getting all 3 points at Ipswich was a big loss because I think they’ll be a good source of points for most teams now.

As for the Darkside, they’re saying that the 8 points gap will more than see them safe, but a couple off losses on the back of a couple of wins for Brum and/or Burton and they really will be right in the mire. Blades Glory Owls Down anyone?
