A six pointer or will Hull be safe and hopefully take their foot off the gas?
A six pointer or will Hull be safe and hopefully take their foot off the gas?
I refuse to predict the result, hoping for at least a pt, we need 3.
The way results have been going who knows. Nice to get a win and favour from frank so would make us pretty much safe.
3 points from this and, barring a gigantic turnround in GD, Cardiff and Plymouth can't catch us. We win and Luton lose, the same will apply.
Poor 1st half against Luton saw us behind. Much better 2nd half saw us fail to get the goal(s) we probably should have. they scored on the only shot on target all game. Much better at WBA. Take that form into the Hull game and we should be OK for another 3 points.
As ever, my glass is half full or better. We'll be fine.
I fear we will lose this one. 0-1
Question though, would you prefer to:
a. Win this one, be over confident and trip up against Stoke, hoping the other teams will not catch us.
b. Lose this one, and fight tooth and nail for a win against Stoke to give us a chance of staying up.
c. I don't need a "c", because the "a" and "b" were so grate.
Obviously 2 wins would be lovely, but I don't think a draw would be a bad result, as it leaves us with no option but to fight until the death v Stoke.
d. We win and Luton lose. They'd need to win their last game AND turn round a 16 goal or greater Goal Difference.
Go into the Stoke game totally relaxed, unburdened by nerves and play free flowing, attacking football, on the floor.
Essentially we need to match or better Luton's results over the next two games assuming we both don't lose both of them.
Cardiff play two teams with nothing to play for but ironically our fate could be in the hands of now managerless WBA who finish against Cardiff and Luton
Plymouth finish with Leeds who may be needing a result to win the title
