It's looks QPR, Derby and Wigan will secure 3rd to 5th, so who will get 6th? The run ins are below. Our run in doesn't look too bad, although if we aren't going to score it doesn't really matter who we are playing.

I want to say Albion, but the clever money would be on Reading

Reading have a tricky run in. If Bournemouth maintain their current form I can see them squeezing in.

To be honest I can see one of the chasing pack catching Reading. They are shit at home and have two very tough away games.

Although I can't see that team being us. If I had to stick my neck out I would say Blackburn

When you see the run-in, it makes the recent run of results and abject performances even more annoying.

It really was ours for the taking. Middlesboro and Ipswich home games were pivotal.

Reading still have a more a tricky run in than us, I think 4 wins and 2 draws would do it.

All we can hope for is a win at Leicester is inspire confidence, but I can't see it happening. Leicester won't take their foot off the gas until they are Champions

The last time Leicester lost a league game was 7th Dec, which is 21 league games unbeaten. The team that beat them on 7th Dec, us. I don't know why but I think we might win at Leicester.

I believe it is between Reading, ourselves and Bournemouth. There is no doubt in my mind that we can do it. We have three home games against sides who are battling out down the bottom, but if we escape with 9 points from those games with an extra point from either Leicester or Huddersfield away who knows what can happen at Forest. This is the perfect time to hit form with 15 points to play for.

Look at this way, Wigan will triumph in the playoffs regardless of who gets there, so we're saving ourselves heartache at a later stage by failing to get there at all.

Reading, then Bournemouth, then Ipswich. We haven't a chance based on current form, nor have forest.
