And have to play a team that’s gone on an incredible late surge to sneak in the playoffs. 👀 😮 |  |

Thankfully the scummers have too many form teams in front of them to cause the ultimate embarrassment. [Post edited 10 Feb 20:07]

This is in the back of my mind. I'm keeping my eye on that 6th spot as much as any position in the table. I suspect whoever gets there will be the form team of the run in rather than falling into it, unless they do so well, they usurp Millwall//Hull/ (us??) into 5th.
It still could be anybody down to about 17th and as for the worst possible match up? I'm trying not to think about it.
We can really do without play-offs this year. |  |

I keep thinking their form can’t last but damn, they keep winning. Probably yes, too much of a gap and too many teams to leapfrog to reach playoffs. Right? Right? | |

They are flying but yep, there is a hell of a lot of traffic ahead of them. They need to better, and then some, a lot of teams to make it. | |

I do think theres simply too many teams between them and the play offs, they all wont/can't keep losing.
They will finish in the top half though, no question |  | | |

To try to ease your fears, just to reach 70 points, they need another 31 points and they’d have to average 2.21 ppg, Realistically the level to reach the playoffs is 73, which would require 33 points at 2.42. Even with their upturn in form, they’ve only managed 26 from the last 14, so they would have to turn into prime Barcelona to get close to the playoffs. [Post edited 10 Feb 20:28]

There isn't a team on better form than them outside of the playoffs though :( |  | | |

It's certainly happened before...
The amount of times I spent weeks looking at teletext hoping we'd finish 2nd and then we didn't quite make it, only to lose out in the playoffs.
We may yet make the top 2. But if we don't, I think we'd be vulnerable away from home against any of the other sides, given our away form. We may make it through of course, but I wouldn't be massively confident that we'd brush the other teams aside.
It is what it is, I guess. And I really don't think that Norwich can make it. At least, not /this/ season... |  | | |

Doing it without Sargent too who is nowhere near the squad still.
Who is the Toure who has a hat-trick? New player? |  | | |

Can’t see it but if it happens then bring it on. No point even considering promotion if we can’t beat them over 2 legs. It would be great to do to them what they did to us when we last met in the play offs. The 1985 Milk Cup semi-final still smarts too. It’d be great to stuff them on the way to Wembley. |  |

They have picked up a couple of players who can score goals. Which makes our failure to secure a striking option all the more galling.
Hopefully Hirst and Azon start scoring soon and their players go on goal drought. |  |

A lot of traffic yes, but they can’t all win every match, and they’ll take points off each other.
If they keep this run going, they’ve got a chance. |  |
