I fancy you've had 18 pints in the last 6 hours with a prediction like thatI fancy us for 18 points from last 6 games.

One game at a timeSquad's not big enough and exhaustion and fatigue is going to be the most likely factor in our not quite making it.
Could do with another week off, but we have to go again on Tuesday.
No way we are going to win all 6 games I wouldn't have thought.
Whatever happens it has been a brilliant season and the brand of football has made for some fantastic displays this season .Can't see 18 but Robins orchestrated a play off berth last season so knows how to get it over the line. Don't think that we're in pole position but sure that we'll give it a bloody good go.
Crafty covering of all bases in that last sentence! It's the mark of a true supporter that in the wake of a barnstorming performance the seed is sown where they never lose another game, ever. Keep up the good work.Squad's not big enough and exhaustion and fatigue is going to be the most likely factor in our not quite making it.

Yeah, needed the egg-face-saving little caveat in there.Crafty covering of all bases in that last sentence! It's the mark of a true supporter that in the wake of a barnstorming performance the seed is sown where they never lose another game, ever. Keep up the good work.
Yeah. I would say that's about right. Just then need Norwich to drop a few points here and there. They don't even need to necessarily lose. Just some draws, while we pick up wins.We can afford to lose one more game I’d say but we need to win at least 4 if we want play-offs.
Mrs BSB said she’d be pretty frustrated if we ended up 7th, and would rather finish further away if we can’t make it. I explained that 7th would be our second best league finish in 23 years…some perspective is needed.
Yes go full pelt to try and make it in this year but next season is the time for this group to shine. Would be nice if we can get to the Ipswich game with something still to play for anyway, don’t really fancy just turning up to their promotion party.
Absolutely. It might happen but no guarantees at all.I've got real concerns with this narrative about next season being the season we'll shine.
It's great that we shouldn't have the same churn of players we've had in the last few years and that should help us get off to a much improved start compared to this season and last.
But every season throws up new problems, new challenges and surprise contenders among our rivals.
A lot of people are talking as if next seasons a given, I'm not so sure.
Whilst I understand those comments and views could we realistically expected more? I’m sure they tried to bring some I but for whatever reason it didn’t happen. Plus if you look since the turn of the year we’ve taken 29 out of 45 points so would they really have made a difference? In that period only Leeds, Ipswich and Norwich have taken more.Absolutely. It might happen but no guarantees at all.
If we don't go up we will lose O'Hare and maybe a number of others, especially if they shine at Wembley. I still feel we could regret not being more pragmatic in January and adding a couple of loans to the squad. This is a big opportunity which we might not get again.
The January window is always a minefield , it’s a horrible time to be buying players as the parent clubs are usually fighting at one end of the table or the otherWhilst I understand those comments and views could we realistically expected more?

It's a bit of a strange narrative given that this season we're an outside bet just to reach the play-offs. I don't buy the idea that the clubs coming down from the PL will be weaker than in previous years. Burnley and Sheff Utd were well ahead of us last season.I've got real concerns with this narrative about next season being the season we'll shine.

Yes, I think we are going to need 77 points, and even that won't guarantee a place. I can see Norwich only picking up possibly 1 point from their next 2 games, but I can't see them picking up less than 10 altogether, with home games against Bristol and Swansea, plus away to Bham, but you never know.We can afford to lose one more game I’d say but we need to win at least 4 if we want play-offs.
And at least one of the "strong 4" this season will still be in the Championship next yearIt's a bit of a strange narrative given that this season we're an outside bet just to reach the play-offs.

We’re 5 points up on last season.… I always thought 76 points would be enough. Norwich results need to nosedive as well.I fancy us for 18 points from last 6 games.
Bring it on !!
