    Whose gonna get 87 points?

    That's what I think will be needed for second and we and to get 5 wins and 2 draws from the next 7 games and that would emulate the exact points God Megson got in his final 10 games to pip the dings to second spot.

    Just like then we have the millers at home in the run in, but at least there won't be a Jordoa moment this time.

    I would not be surprised if we do get 87 points but I just can’t see Leeds getting at least 88. They have 7 games left and I think they will get at least 12 points from them. If they hadn’t managed to win yesterday I think they may have struggled but that win was huge unfortunately.

    Hope I am wrong but can’t see us getting into top 2 now but need to keep building momentum into the play offs and nothing better than keep this winning streak going. COYB.

    As I've said many times this season we have played catch up for most of the season & we ain't going to catch them now , our demise is our home form , & it could well cost us big style, I believe we will make the play offs that's a 3 game lottery that any team in it can win it I have this horrible gut feeling it ain't going to be us , to crap at the back for my liking ,
    But who knows ?

    There's no way we will get 87 points. We are going for the full house 91 points COYB.
    We are on the same points as Megson's team when we overtook wolves.
    Sheffield united dropped points yesterday, Blues will take points of Leeds and Sheffield.

    Agreed the winner for Leeds yesterday was a big goal for them
    Plus chasing two teams hoping they both screw up is more difficult and less likely than one

    Home form and dropping points from winning positions will cost us, I’m also really worried that we will lose to the Vile in the playoffs

    Also if we get to Wembley I’m not going I missed the port vale game due to exams next day, went for derby and Pompey lost both 1-0

    I don’t wanna jinx us

    I think we will need to win every game and even then that might not be enough. That puts us on 91 points, so we will need Leeds to take a maximum of 14 points from their last 7 games and Sheff Utd to take 16 points or less from their last 7.

    Norwich are already up me thinks.

    It's very unlikely we'll do it and I think all those home draws is what has cost us the most, but losing our 2 best players (HB and MP) from the first half of the season hasn't helped.

    We can only hope that all the reports of Bielsa sides tiring at the end of a season are true and Sheffield united's inexperience and the pressure costs them.

    Blose, have a big say in it as they play both very soon.
