Would take that all day. Would leave needing 3 wins out of 5 I reckon with QPR Reading and Brum to play.

I’d like to see us in a playoff spot for the first time this season on the 86th minute at Middlesboro.
4minutes should be enough to seal the deal

Took us a while to shake off the manager of the month curse but it’s now a 9 game unbeaten run but with the poor teams we played we should have picked up more than the draws we got

you can’t win them all. The Wigan goal was annoying and lucky but if you offered me 7 points from the bottom 3 then I would have taken it quickly. 2 away from home where we scored 4 goals each.
It’s the same argument as Swansea 3-0 up….. yes again annoying but these things do happen to everyone across a season. We have had last minute goals again. West Brom penalty when we hanging on a bit springs to mind.
We won’t make the playoffs but to be in the discussion and clearly have a punchers chance then that’s utterly incredible. After 10 games if you offered me 21st I would have snapped your hand off.

Why not?
Have you seen how many times the teams above us have to play each other? Tomorrow the two below us play each other. 3 of those above us have to play Burnley still.

Charity bet?

Well as it’s a 7% chance of promotion I wonder what the % is for a play off place

Probably about 30% I would have thought Pete but as others have said ,teams that come late to the party often claim a spot and if we could make it I'd fancy us against anyone in the playoffs.
We are currently 5th in the last six games and 3rd in the last 10 so definitely one of the form teams and that counts for a lot at this stage of the season.
We'll probably know a lot more after this weekend.

yeah good point but Burnley are as good as up. The hard work has been done for them. Maybe subconsciously not as tough team to play.
also forget other teams for a second…. We still have to win 5-6 games and I just can’t see us doing that. So it’s irrelevant what the other teams do for me. Hey we have a punchers chance as I say and I accept that and with Vik staying fit then yeah we must have a chance.

More pertinently we're 4th over the last 28 games! The excellent form has essentially covered the whole season (bar a mini post-WC blip) once we'd navigated our way through the pitch debacle left by those egg chasing cunts.

The fact that we're even talking playoffs given our circumstances and where we're come from is a minor miracle.
For me next season is the one I think we might make the playoffs. Right now just shy and to finish where we are now is fantastic.

How much? Odds are in your favour. Just a small bet of £500 and we give it to someone like Nick to hold so you pay up.
Astute

This is what many don't consider. Lots of points to be dropped. And we're 9 unbeaten with only 8 to go.

Christ it’s like trying to negotiate with Tyson Fury.
£50 to a charity of the winners choice. I bet that we do not make the playoffs.
Take it or leave it.
Astute

Burnley are after over 100 points. Always nice to have your name in the record books.
Astute

Where is the negotiation? We both give Nick £500 so the charity gets paid. Not lost a charity bet on here yet but not always been paid when I win.
Boosh
Well-Known Member
Yes, I will send a random man off the internet with obviously questionable morals £500.
Take the bet or leave it, if not, don’t reply to me again you’re clearly a troll

Questionable morals?
Without Nick you wouldn't have a place to act like an idiot. Put your money where your mouth is.

It’s only Dongle who didn’t pay and he never paid any of us - you can’t just give Nick £1,000 in his bank
Boosh

He doesn’t want the bet clearly but if anyone else does then I’m happy to
Astute

Take it then you don't pay up?
Backing out already or can't you afford the bet?
Will just go 50p if that's all you can afford.

Only £50? That will do. But want to know it will be paid.

why would he want to give anyone his bank details and get a grand in it
Take his £50 bet

I have said I will let someone else hold the money for our bet yet you say I don't want the bet
