All we need to be focusing on is beating Birmingham and then getting some kind of result on the last day. If we do that and still don’t make it, hats off to the two teams who did better.
Don’t beat Birmingham and it’s probably gone.
Agree. Just beat Blues. We'll possibly go into that game outside the playoff positions, it's incredibly tight and we just need to focus on winning our games.
Yes, Tuesday night, just to add a little bit of fuel to that fire Burnley are under threat or a points deduction from the EFL for playing a weakened team I think against Reading so although promotion is in the bag might put the league title under threat and give them a needed boost v Blackburn and Sheff. United v WBA.Your right I'm getting confused with all the teams in itIs it Burnley as Blackburns game in hand?
I fucking hate playing Birmingham they always seem to play dog shit but take points off us.
Draw or baggies win. Sunderland out of it if they lose.Apart from when we stuck four past them, it’s routinely 0-0 isn’t it?
Im leaning toward a Sunderland win today as isn’t that the best chance we have of it being completely in our own hands come 10pm Wednesday? If we can go into Saturday not relying on other results that would be best for my ticker.

Yep with Birmingham kicking us up in the air. The ref doing nothing about it. Our players getting more and more frustrated and a 0-0 full time.Apart from when we stuck four past them, it’s routinely 0-0 isn’t it?

Just imagine. Draw today, WBA and Blackburn lose midweek. Then results go our way and we confirm playoffs at home in front of a full house
Sunderland today worry me too.If blackburn lose to burnley midweek , we don't need to worry about anybody else , millwall have to go to Blackpool Friday and win , if they don't and we win Saturday against blues , there is every chance we are already qualified in the playoffs by the time blackburn play Monday
Also millwall play their next game vs Blackpool A next friday night. Think we will be watching that closely.Just imagine. Draw today, WBA and Blackburn lose midweek. Then results go our way and we confirm playoffs at home in front of a full house

It's only about three weeks ago that there was a serious thread discussing whether we needed a whole new team. In the 94th minute on Wednesday we were no-hopers, a few days later and we're planning trips to the Etihad. Some proper mood swings on this forum.

Agreed - after that, everyone will know where they stand going into the final game (P.S. Hellas doing their own version of an attempted Great Escape!)Let’s just concentrate on beating Birmingham first.
Max points and points gained are two totally different beasts.I can't see how 70 points can possibly be enough.
Max points from here:
Millwall 71
Blackburn 74
Albion 75
Sunderland 71
We have to win the last two imo.
Yeah they looked dead and buried up until recently! A win at Cremonese would be huge - I’m going to the Inter game in a couple of weeks.Agreed - after that, everyone will know where they stand going into the final game (P.S. Hellas doing their own version of an attempted Great Escape!)

WBA down to 72 already.
Millwall on a poor run.
Blackburn have a very difficult run in.
Sunderland away to Preston last game. Preston could still have a chance themselves going into the last game.
Been saying for a couple of weeks that 69 points could be enough.Of course, but it doesn't change the fact a couple of these teams are likely to finish with a couple of wins. Fancy Blackburn to beat Burnley and Millwall to beat Blackpool. Maybe they won't, but I'd be very surprised if 70 points is enough.

Astute either they have started only giving half a point for a draw or you need to go and have a lie down in a darken room as it's getting all to much for you.Blackburn? Have you seen their recent form? 6 games this month. Drawn 4 lost 2. 2 points from last 6 games. Their next 3 games? H Burnley H Luton and A Millwall.
Was hammered at the time so surprised it made enough sense to show that I can't count when not soberAstute either they have started only giving half a point for a draw or you need to go and have a lie down in a darken room as it's getting all to much for you.
Didn't even need 70 in the endYou think Albion winning 2 and drawing 1 of their last 4, and Millwall winning two on the bounce (one at Blackpool and one at home) would be extraordinary? Or if Millwall don't do that, Blackburn win 2 out 3? There is a very good chance these things happen.
They may not, it is possible we make playoffs with 70 points, but I doubt it would be enough.
