Watford are a real mess. I cant see them getting anything at Sunderland.Previous results this season would suggest this will happen
Coventry vs Birmingham - Coventry
Sunderland vs Watford - Draw
Millwall vs Blackpool - Millwall
Luton vs Blackburn - Luton
WBA vs Norwich - Draw
Burnley Promoted
Sheff U Promoted
______________________________________________________
Luton 81
Middlesbrough 74
Coventry 69
Millwall 68
______________________________________________________
Sunderland 66
Blackburn 65
WBA 64
Ideally need Watford and Luton to win and the play-offs are guaranteed. This would leave both teams on 65 and unable to catch Coventry.
I still firmly believe that if we win Saturday then we’ll make the playoffs, regardless of we do on the last day.
I just can’t see another two teams reaching 69 points.
If we don’t make the playoffs though we need to remember that we’re still going in the right direction. That’ll be 6 straight seasons where we’ve improved on the previous year.
We just need to keep doing what we’ve been doing
I hope you're right and we don't do a Huddersfield or BarnsleyIm totally confident that we’ll be top six next year. This season is a complete free hit for me.
More likely a Luton. We have been on their tails all the way! We may even pass them on a nice Saturday at the end of mayI hope you're right and we don't do a Huddersfield or Barnsley
Fans thought wed do that this season/ every season .. like Robins said , time to change the midsetI hope you're right and we don't do a Huddersfield or Barnsley

So bit of “dreamscaping”:
Say we do go up somehow this season, other than Vik, who would you plan to keep in the first team? Hamer & O’Hare probably, Sheaf? Anyone else?
Would you aim to stay up or sign young players we might keep hold of if we go down and focus longer term?

Agree on Watford. I think if any team up there near the top is already in the beach, it's them. All 6 teams above them, but outside the playoff spots, have at least a slim chance of making the top 6. They don't. They are done for.Watford are a real mess. I cant see them getting anything at Sunderland.
Look we cant expect every result to go our way.
We just need 4 points now to be absolutely certain.
Correct we do need to pipe down our expectations. To be this close to play offs is phenomenal.Im totally confident that we’ll be top six next year. This season is a complete free hit for me.

Agreed - first season in the prem be delighted to just stay upI think it’s a big early to say we’re definitely going to be top 6 next season
We have to use Fulham as an example. Anything but top 10 is a failure imo.Agreed - first season in the prem be delighted to just stay up

Well two wins minimum
Technically it isn't even that, is it? You could win play off semis and final on penalties and even draw the last two games of the standard season!
phwoar!Im counting penalties as a win but yeah technically we could not score another goal from open play and go up.
I disagree, I think our style suits the PL. If we add some quality and keep the big 3 there's no reason why we can't do a Fulham. Top half ..... easyTotally with you. I love the championship as we have a chance every game. In the premier league I expect a bumming every week. I get the money could help the club but the step up seems unachievable.
I also don’t think we’re ready for the Prem, but for now I’m just enjoying the ride - especially as it’s one we didn’t think we’d be on after the numerous bumps this year.
If we do get promoted; then what an incredible achievement. And whatever happens next year MR should remain.
If we don’t; I truly expect us to be challenging for top two next year.
Either way we’re going to need a squad overhaul, if we’re in the Prem we’ll have the money to do so. Even if not you’d like to think this year has showed King that with some investment he has a team on the rise with lots of potential on his hands!

6-1 at the bookies now for promotion. Not bad in a 'four horse race' at this point. The 20-1 odds 3 weeeks ago looks really generous now
If we do go up I think its a season earlier than Robins would have expected so his recruitment would have to be defensive based. The biggest difference is the pace that they play at in the Prem. You need lightening quick defenders to give you a chance, Fadz as much as I love the bloke would get ripped to pieces as would the wing backs. Based on that you would need two quality wing backs and 2 lightening quick center half's and maybe a really mobile midfielder. Creatively our forward thinking players can possibly compete but I would throw a proven number 9 is a well as Vick would need the help. The best example for me of the type you need and the amount to spend is Andy Robertson cost Liverpool 8 million, if you've got the pace you have a chance.
