[FatSuperman]

That's 2 unauthorised threads today. It's always [MENTION=28934]AmexRuislip[/MENTION] for the highlights and [MENTION=12595]Acker79[/MENTION] for the can't catch us thread.

And until his form drops significantly, it's [MENTION=15297]Dick Head[/MENTION] for the OMT. This is all quite straightforward!

Make that 39 points as of now

We have now done the double over 4 teams, Fulham, Wednesday, Burton, and now, Barnsley. Only one team can do the double over us, Newcastle.

I'll take that.

 

[Ernest]

Wigan and Blackburn in our sights now and then we'll be SAFE from RELEGATION

I'll take that.

....and we still have the chance of ten more doubles.

 

[DavePage]

How many more games before Newcastle can’t catch us?

 

[Acker79]

How many more games before Newcastle can’t catch us?

At the moment, we need 41points . Since we only have 42 more possible points three of them will come v newcastle (reducing their max to 108), and 41 is an impossible total. So 14 games.

I don't post much, but I do lurk occasionally. Often popping in for 10 minutes to see if there are any notable rumours/news etc. I will try to work on this today.

Tremendous to see that NSC has managed to prise you out of posting semi-retirement to maintain a safe pair of hands for this most crucial of threads

I will probably only be able to update this at a weekends, evenings are full of distractions for me. I may try to update midweek if there's a significant change, but no promises.

It's clear we're not getting promoted without your input on this thread.


But you do what you feel you must!

Perhaps you need a deputy, or apprentice ?

Amazing to see that in two more games, there could be 7? more teams that can't overhaul us.

more to the point get a win against Newcastle and keep piling the points up nobody will catch us




I know but I can dream can't I

 

[sparkie]

Wigan could be very close after their game tonight.

 

[GT49er]

Wigan can't now.

 

[SUIYHP]

If we at least draw on Tuesday, then Blackburn, Bristol and Burton would have to beat us on goal difference, And if we win, Nottingham forest would need to do that too. That's a huge chance for Brighton to outpace FOUR teams. Making us a quarter of the way there....
