That is truly insane.
We need to get 6 points from next 2 and then give the players a good rest over the international break. |  |

Bonkers.
Not too worried about the games that bookend it but from Norwich to Saints is mad, 6 games in 17 days. Ridiculous with 5 of them away.
At least if we do it we'll have done it the hard way.
Need to win the next 2 to tee up what could be an incredible April. |  | | |

24 points, 24 goals in only 26 days.
More points on offer in those 26 days than the first 2 months of the season. Have to focus on 6 points in the next 2 first though. |  | | |

The pedant in me points out that qpr is in May.
So 21 points and 21 goals. |  |

you feel it could galvanise us or we just crumble under it. need 6pts from SW and Millwall and to beat Birmingham you'd think. | | | |

I'm more irked than I should be by the inclusion of a May fixture in a thread titled April. I think the last two games have soured my mood. |  |

Lessons really need to be learned by the EFL over this.
So many things wrong with fixture scheduling this season.
More games need to be played earlier in the season if you having international breaks as well.
Rather than playing 7 games in 22 days at the end of the season perhaps bringing back a double header on the August bank holiday would be a start.
The easy long term solution is to reduce the Championship to 22 teams.
I have no idea why everyone is still so wedded to 24 teams when gate receipts are increasingly smaller in proportion to total revenue anyway. |  | | |

I felt terrible about the title - but it was 87.5% correct, which is a reasonable threshold I reckon - there are posters with a lower level of accuracy.... | | | |

If we finished 5th to 8th it would probably be 10 games in 30 days with the expanded playoffs. | | | |

Just imagine what would have happened if we had also gone through an additional couple of rounds in the FA Cup - we may have seen more of the U21s, which would be “interesting”! | | | |

I was also thinking about this earlier. International breaks this season have taken out a possible eight dates for midweek fixtures. There are already nine scheduled midweek fixtures without rearranging matches for FA Cup involvement or postponements. Midweeks being kept free for the League Cup don’t help. | | | |

The Pompey game will depend on their injury situation as well as the weather. |  | | |
| April on 18:21 - Mar 11 with 574 views | Blue_Heath |
That sums up why we won't go up, even with our squad that is ridiculous, never mind including the play offs shortly after. | |

I'm clutching here but those last two games/penalties might boot the players into a really positive place.
At the very least, we need to be on the up for the dreaded PO's |  | | |

Weirdly think it’s better to play saints on the 28th than original date
Should allow a good run up to the derby
My thoughts
Sheff Wed - W
Millwall - W
Birmingham - W
Norwich - D
Portsmouth - W
Boro - D
Charlton - W
WBA - W
Saints - D/L
QPR - W
Boro to drop points vs Millwall , Watford , Wrexham , Swansea , Blackburn
Millwall I think / hope will run out of steam | | | |

The second tier league has only been 24 since the money clubs dumped 2 places when they formed the PL. Second tier could easily be reduced back to 22 by sending the foreign clubs off to play in their own national league, the Cymru Premier. | |
| Never forget that in April 2021, for ITFC, the Game Changed. |

If some of our pass accuracy was as good as your post accuracy then it would be happy days. | | | |

Maybe a bit of warm Weather training , I’m sure that would work wonders, they need To be out On the training field working on passing accuracy and taking shots from outside the box, not resting. [Post edited 11 Mar 19:20]
