Now Town rest and watch-on prior to the massive game at Hull.
Hull are 6 points off Norwich with a game in hand, but inferior goal difference.

Surely points will be dropped by our rivals?
And then Leicester's game in hand is Southampton | |

You have Soton on 82 points, however they only have 81 |  |

I think Saints may trip up at Cardiff, but the Leicester v Saints match will have the most impact on all of this.
I can see Leeds dropping points at Boro.
I can see us dropping points at Hull or Coventry. I think we will win and draw those respectfully. |  | | |
| Thanks - updated - Saints could still be on 90 by the time we play Hull on 11:36 - Apr 15 with 1676 views | unstableblue |

So above us, but having played one more.
That would mean they would have taken 3 points off Leicester | |

.. show up in the remaining ties.
Boro, QPR, Coventry, PNE, Blackburn, and hopefully Hull by the time they play us - season's are over.
These teams are closer to the beach.
But I do think managers like Carrick all want to finish strongly as a high as possible, and play their part in the late drama. Carrick could do his buddy McKennas cause a big boost by beating Leeds on Saturday night! | |

Goes without saying really but Saturday - Tuesday really is going to be pivotal isn't it.
Leicester vs. West Brom
Saints at Cardiff
Leeds at Boro
Leicester vs. Saints
We've been saying this for weeks but it really does feel like we'll know a lot more come 10pm on 23rd.
I'm not really thinking about the final day. For me the aim should be can we go in to that day with it in our hands. If we can achieve that we really couldn't have asked for any more from this period. |  | | |

If Saint win well this week against Preston, then its a real run forming. And they'll go into the weekend fired up, to take on Cardiff, and then set-up a real ding dong at the King Power next Tuesday. | |

I've got a feeling we'll have enough… just.
Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing I don't know. I love the feeling of progression but the EPL isn't all it's cracked up to be. If we don't go up I think we're on for interesting times of building up the squad, improving the ground and so on.
Having said that I think we'll have enough to go up. I think we'll either get 2xW and 1xD or 3xW. [Post edited 16 Apr 0:50]

If you look at Brighton, Wolves, Fulham, Bournemouth, Palace and Brentford they realy don't have that bad a time in the EPL.
And getting to that level quickly is surely the goal?
Brighton W11 D11 L10
Wolves W12 D7 L13
Fulham W12 D6 L15
I would be happy with seasons like that! and to watch the likes of Zaka, Foden, Sala!
We can but dream. But in our hands! | |

I wouldn't include QPR in that list...they're having a blip after their good run and have been drawn back into the relegation battle, so will probably still be fighting for points in their home match against Leeds.
Much as I hate to say it, with Hull playing away at Watford and Coventry before they play us, and Norwich having 2 matches at home against teams with nothing to play for (and their solid home form) pretty likely Hull will be out of the play-off race by the time we play them; could work both ways...teams that need points tend to be more open and attacking, although as it's Hull's last home game of the season you'd think they'd want to make a game of it anyway. |  |

I’d rather watch players that actually exist |  |
