No, if we were to draw with them before tonight's results, then they would still be a point ahead. |  | |  |

It was. But it's now even more in our hands I suppose? |  | |  |
| After all the pissing and moaning on here after Saturday... on 21:45 - Feb 24 with 1298 views | SWLondonBlue93 | As frustrating as Saturday was, I think most sensible Town fans would have taken six points from the run of three away games. Still lots of work to do but we're in an ok position. |  | |  |
| After all the pissing and moaning on here after Saturday... on 21:46 - Feb 24 with 1238 views | FrimleyBlue | As I said yesterday I think. Win tonight and sat doesnt matter. You're not gonna win every away game so picking up 3 points when you've had 0 is the perfect reply. |  |

No it wasn't before today even if we win our 2 games in hand 2 points behind. Boro dropped points tonight at home to your favourite team Leicester. Now it is (on GD), still obviously requires us to win both those games on hand. |  | |  |
| After all the pissing and moaning on here after Saturday... on 21:47 - Feb 24 with 1204 views | itfcsuth | We’ve been in this position a couple of times previously, we haven’t really grabbed the opportunity. The answer is exactly as it has been throughout the season, we have to consistently deliver, that includes delivering on the games in hand, it includes delivering against Middlesbrough, it includes delivering against Hull, Leicester, Southampton, Norwich and other tough tests. Can we do that, I’m not sure yet, but we are still sitting in a strong position. |  | |  |

Agreed. The FA Cup game queried the pitch a lot I feel. 6 from 9 away from home I'd absolutely fine. |  | |  |

Yes it was. Before this game, if we’d won every game to the end of the season (including winning both games in hand and beating Boro), we were guaranteed to finish 2nd. Not a realistic scenario, but by definition ‘in our hands’. |  | |  |

Boro would be saying the exact same thing, (and still will be) so I don't get that argument at all |  | |  |

You don't understand what "in our hands" means then. |  |

It's not an argument, is it. Just factually correct that it was still in our own hands |  | |  |

They would of course, but how can you claim it wasn’t in our hands? By its very definition, ‘in our hands’ means that if a team does what it can, and is possible, by winning all remaining games, then the outcome is guaranteed. Promotion. I really don’t understand how you can argue against what is a well understood expression. |  | |  |

I've mostly lost my sh*t with those jumping in when our stats suggest we're performing well. Delighted both Egeli and Hirst got on the score sheet for their confidence if nothing else. |  | |  |
| After all the pissing and moaning on here after Saturday... on 22:15 - Feb 24 with 732 views | KBsSocks | Interesting arguments in this thread. Many of which are arguing against nothing in particular. May I suggest getting behind the team, even in forums ? :) |  |

| After all the pissing and moaning on here after Saturday... on 22:16 - Feb 24 with 710 views | gainsboroughblue | Three home wins in a row would really ramp up the pressure on Boro (and maybe Cov). Then two away games, one of which is at Sheff Weds. The four games that follow all that are mahhoosive ones. |  |

Ok, I stand corrected. I thought it was about who would be ahead when you'd played out the games on hand. Apologies |  | |  |
| After all the pissing and moaning on here after Saturday... on 22:29 - Feb 24 with 581 views | davblue | This team feels like it has a Rick in it. They are going to have to minimise those ricks in the remaining games to have a chance. |  | |  |

Must admit I was surprised to see Egeli start but chuffed for him and a great finish. There’s a player in there… |  | |  |
