    Top 6 Confirmed?

    so folks, just 6 games to go now and I think we have our top 6. fester and burnley are a certain 1-2.

    then the rest. reading now 5 points clear of forest and co with a better goal difference.

    does anyone see reading being pipped?

    I now think the last 6 games have become more important in many respects as I'd much prefer reading than wigan in the play offs, although I know we have to beat the best ultimately.

    all that money and florist look doomed to failure again.

    Ive said it before, it's wigans to lose now. Coming into the playoffs on top form. I think the 5 point gap isn't unassailable but forest have to start playing. Millions squandered yet again from that joke of a club.

    I don't even think they will finish in the top ten now. Have you seen the table? Watford down in 12th are on 55 points. It's so tight from 7th down that they will just slide now as they dont even have a manager until summer and then they have the great 2nd coming of pearce.. And not to mention FFP..

    re: Top 6 Confirmed?

    You have to ask yourself this question; is/was Pearce aware of the impending transfer embargo and huge fine? Looks like this will be another huge ocean going c*ck up from fatass al salami, i can really see him getting disillusioned with english football to the point were he just shuts the club and clears off to carry on selling fridges and air-con leaving notts forrest to wallow around in division 3, boring everybody with their 2 eurochumps

    Of the immediate chasing pack on or around the 58 points mark, any team hoping to make the top 6 now will need to win at least 4 games to overtake Reading.

    You would expect Reading to be able to achieve at least a win and two draws in their last 6 matches, which would put them 10 points ahead with a better goal difference in all probability, so any of those teams behind them will need to win a minimum of 4 out of 6 to overtake them, that's assuming Reading don't do even better than that. Wigan certainly won't be caught, they're in good form and already and I think it's fair to say that Derby and QPR would require the worlds greatest ****-up to let an 11/12 point lead slip in the last 6 games.

    re: Top 6 Confirmed?

    I still think Reading can be caught. They are a decent side but have lacked consistency at times this season.

    Bournemouth are in fine form, and beat QPR yesterday to keep up the chase. Their next game is home to Reading, should they win the gap between them becomes 2 points. Should Reading get the draw or win, then Bournemouth will be out of it. If Forest manage to beat Wednesday on Tuesday ( ), then they also will keep themselves in it.

    I agree though, ourselves, QPR and Wigan, will probably make up the first 3, but the 6th spot is still open, and I think will not be decided for a couple of weeks yet.

    I want Bournemouth in the playoffs!

    Just to add, I think it isnt wise to write Forest off just yet, as my mate was telling me they expect to have some of their better players returning in the next couple of weeks.

    You never know
