Three things

[kevo]

1. We will get promoted if we win on Saturday.
2. We can still get promoted as Champions
3. If we don't win, we can still get promoted via the play-offs at Wembley

Feeling better?

If bunley draw and we win, we'd have to win by 4 goals to be champions I take it? If they lose and we win, we win the league by a point,

Yeah, relying on them losing really. Could happen - Burnley just got promoted and will have been partying, will they be that bothered? Charlton look a better team since they got relegated - were half decent against us and won away at the Champions of Europe at the weekend. The disruptions could also play a part.

Meant to add, I know it's very small consolation but even if we don't make it at least we would be in for another thrilling season in the Championship - the most exciting league in English football. We must stand a decent chance of going up given the team we've got - and there'll be some great teams to play against (Villa, Newcastle and/or Sunderland...). Would still be absolutely gutting I know, but perhaps it'll be a repeat of the 77/78 and 78/79 seasons. A very near miss, then promotion the following year.

Completely agree with this. If we don't go up, I'll be gutted. However, keep this team together and add another striker and a couple more signings and we'd have every chance of being up the top again. Even if we lose one or two players, I have faith in the current setup to go out and buy the right players unlike when we sold Ulloa, Buckley etc a couple of years ago.

Having said that, I believe we can do it on Saturday. Pressure is on Boro. Their fans will expect to be promoted. We can enjoy the day a bit more and hopefully surprise them!

Only if we keep Kayal, Stephens and Knockaert.

Tony must resist all bids.
