This,it’s Not a given we will win three and draw one is it.


No, but if Millwall get a win & a draw from their last 2 it doesn’t matter what Boro & Soton do. So they’re likely out of the race for 2nd. Could still catch us I agree.

No one seems to have mentioned that West Brom are on great form at the moment. We have a poor record there as well. And our record at Charlton makes for ugly reading.

I have almost no confidence we are going to win 3 so we'll need Millwall to mess up.

That is a possibility. And then there will be one. Millwall. But after the Saints draw last night it’s only us and Millwall realistically left in the battle for top 2.

Boro and Saints could catch us if we fcuk up. They ain’t catching Millwall.

But equally they are safe now so might be a bit laissez faire.

Looks like it.

Don't expect any favours from relegated Leicester or Oxford.

9 points needed from 4 games, it's doable, but it does look like it will be crucial to beat Charlton and West Brom, because dropping any points in those games will require going to Soton and winning....


I correct you Sir. I think we only need 8 points. saints now can only get to 82 points, Millwall can get to 84 but have a far inferior goal difference to us, 16 goals in fact. That would take a huge collapse by us.
Of course you are correct that 85 would make it safe and we can't be seen to trying in two out of the four to get draws whilst winning the other two. But that's what it actually amounts to.

Not sure it is a straight shoot out between us & Millwall. My brain hurts from all the permutations I've gone through. So what I do know is we need to win tonight full stop.

That is possible. Always hard to tell with teams who have nothing to play for. Some can't be bothered, others play without pressure and do really well.

As there is so much chat about points totals, I was curious as to what you usually need to get top two. Since 2012/13, on only one occasion has a team finished second with less than 88 points (West Brom in 2019/20, with 83 points). Only emphasises that the bar is low this year and we have been given a massive opportunity.

It would require Millwall to only get 3 (or less out of 6) and us to stumble quite badly. It’s not really impossible, just unlikely.

I personally wouldn’t just be handing them 3 points At Leicester, let’s see.

Really it needs to be all about us now. Win our next two and surely we are all but there. If we don’t win tomorrow we are bang in trouble and anything could happen but Millwall will surely smell blood then.


Talk on the Leicester fans social media that they aren't going to play those that aren't going to be there next season. And even potentially Rowett going before Friday.

So it could be a fairly young team that goes out vs a 'hardened' Millwall team.

On the flip side, a young team looking to impress and stake their claim for a place next year. Or advertise themselves to potential buyers.

Or I'm just clutching at reasons why Leicester won't just roll over.

If Leicester have out of contract players or loanees, I bet they won't fancy flying into 50/50 challenges on Friday. We simply have to assume Millwall will win their last 2, so we have to win 3 out of 4. Tonight is a good time to start.

Like the Stoke team that played us and took a 2 nil lead.

Indeed. And like the one that Millwall beat comfortably last night.

Probably but this division keeps throwing up surprises. It would be a major surprise if Millwall did not win those last 2 games so the target will almost certainly be 85 points. The way this season has gone I can imagine us beating Charlton (euphoria) losing to West Brom (despair) beating a tired and emotional Southampton (after they lose to Man City on penalties) then a nervy 2-1 win against QPR after they go ahead, winner coming in the 85th minute.

You'd hope - and appreciate it's a more a hope than an expectation - that maybe the Leicester team talk writes itself for their final game at home. You owe these fans. Playing for your pride. Leave it all on the pitch etc etc. And that the monkey off their back means they can now play with a bit of freedom. I still think there's a chance they get something even if it's a draw. Maybe I'm being overly generous to their players given the obvious, but I still think (hope) that this has the potential to be a tricky one for Millwall.

has to be, millwall couldn't have hand-picked a better final 2 games (maybe sheff wed, though they're on their best form of the season, 3 unbeaten!)

I'm hoping for this too - we've seen it before when a team is relegated it's like the pressure is off and they start to play.... Maybe I'm just being optimistic!
