[BensGrandad]

A Charlton brick wall and possible win at Cardiff would help us as Cardiff would then need to beat Bolton to go up as champions.

On a Tuesday night?

Sunset after 20:00... yes

 

[Insel affe]

There's still way to much football before that conversation.

Oh....

but yeah....

but no....

but why.....

 

[Stat Brother]

As I can't remember the last time I had a winning football bet, in this crazy division...









...should I bet on Palace tomorrow

 

[BensGrandad]

Have Forest appealed Hendersons red card as I am sure that horrible little sweaty will.

 

[Rugrat]

The only teams they're playing that matter to us are Palace and Forest (Watford doesn't really matter)

If (If If If) Wall beat Watford and we beat Posh I wouldn't rule out us getting 3rd

But we don't need 3rd, there doesn't seem to be a benefit of getting 3rd over 4th - both teams play the semis away first, then at home, it's just whether you play against the 5th or 6th team, and at this stage I wouldn't have a preference. So I really only care how Millwall do against Forest and Palace.

Fair point. Although my order of preference for semis (right now) would be Forest, Palarse, Bolton and I think we'd need 3rd to get Forest but then again if Bolton come 6th ...... oh bollox

 

[Surf's Up]

Posh are 1 pt clear of relegation and turned over a v. good Watford side - it's squeaky bum time as they can really put in a good performance against the better teams so I'll be happy just to keep our unbeaten run going. Arguably they need the points more than we do - a draws not much use to them, so they'll be giving it everything they've got.

Which, if true, means there may well be a bit of space at the back for exploitative purposes!
