Surely we will stuff Stoke City. |  |

I don't like the phrase must win.
That being said dropping points here and Boro winning would start to look pretty bleak for top 2 chances. |  |

We should be disappointed if we don’t pick up all 3 points. Stoke are poor and have significant injury/suspension absences. |  |

Not sure we'll stuff them. Despite their poor form they've got the third best defensive record in the Championship so they don't really get stuffed. It's a game we should win and if other results go against us then failing to win would be a set back. Don't go in for all this must win stuff though. |  |

In as much as any game can be a 'must win' outside of a mathematical requirement to do so, yes.
We need to keep the pressure up on Boro. They are flying right now but who knows how they will handle the pressure as we get towards the end of the season if we are still right there within touching distance. |  | | |

Must win - no, we're not near that point yet.
However, a draw or a loss will put us in a less favourable position if Boro and/ or Millwall win. We need to (and of course will) go for a win. |  | | |

We ain't gonna stuff them on their own turf
If we get a 1-0 win weve done our job.
Need that first goal. They get it.. jobs gonna be very hard |  |

Not sure about must win in the literal sense, but how many of the remaining 11 games do we need to win - I think around 8? In which case, it doesn't leave much room for the error. | | | |

Eight wins, assuming the rest are defeats, would see us on 88 points which should be enough but will be cutting it a little fine. | |

Here we go again...
Technically, no.
Its that time of the season though innit, there's no margin for error if we want to keep it in our own hands. I'd say its a must match Boro over these midweek games. |  | | |

Who those wins come against will make a big difference. 8 including Millwall and Boro would give us a very good chance, would be 88 points (assuming 3 defeats) which would likely leave Boro needing 20 points from their other 9 games, which isn't a run rate they've managed over such a period all season. That's not to say they couldn't do it, but I'd make us favourites in that scenario.
I don't think we need look that far ahead. Tonight is a very big game and a win would be huge with a kinder looking fixture on the horizon on Saturday. 6 points really would set up the Millwall game perfectly and keep it in our own hands irrespective of what Boro do in the meantime. Them dropping points would of course increase our margin for error. | | | |

No - but it's the 1st game of our new record winning streak . . . def info. |  | | |

I'd say so yes. You can take must win down to the mathematics of what it literally means aka mathematical chance still existing bollox but in terms of results and points realistically needed to be promoted with an eye on the fixtures awaiting us. 6 points from tonight and Sat feel crucial. |  | | |

Every game is going to feel like a must win when you are hunting down a points gap.
But we aren't going to win every game. |  | | |

How many teams have we stuffed this season? I reckon 1.
It will be a tight game imho | |

I think we are if we want to finish top two. It has been a strange league this year. We didn't get off to a great start mainly due to the huge number of players coming in.
Then there was the period where Coventry stuttered for several games.
We threw in the odd bad result and Boro stuttered as well.
We virtually caught up although matches being called off didn't help.
Boro found their form again, Coventry roared away and we had that game in hand which we drew due to Mr. Busby. That left us two points behind Boro who then won.
Every match ticked off where we don't at least equal our rivals means that the home games against both Millwall and Boro will have less significance,
Keep in touching distance and we still have a chance. | | | |

If we don’t win tonight then we will be less likely to have a must win game at the end of the season? | | | |

Arguably more likely if we're looking at the playoffs. That could mean a must win game in a knockout format. | | | |

It's a must win in respect of the fact that [redacted] has probably got about five drafts of 1,500+ word posts to bore everyone with tomorrow if we don't win. |  |

Of course you are 100% correct - but I am hiding from that reality… | | | |
