Sunbury Fox Posted 16 March Share Posted 16 March 6 minutes ago, Noahfence said: Ipswich will get top 2. Got a sense of inevitability about them and just feels like one of those stories. Pretty sure we went 18 clear of them for a day at least when they wobbled over Christmas. It's much more recent that we were 18 clear of them - it was after we beat Sheff Wed at home ie 13 Feb, though they had 2 games in hand at that point. They've since won 8 out of 9, whilst we've fallen off a cliff. Losing at home to a massively weakened Boro side and a crap QPR team who barely got out of their own half could well cost us auto promotion, I fear.

Not so sure. They don't seem as a reliant on their starting XI as we are. Their options in attacking midfield are much deeper than ours; their subs have very often changed games for them.

Bet their entire starting 11 aren't earning as much as we're paying Vardy! What romantic nonsense. With Mark Ashton there as CEO that is most unlikely. Loves splashing the big contracts around does our Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxtonfox Posted 16 March Share Posted 16 March The run in is as much mentality and physicality (as Claude would say 😊) now as possession, passing stats and control. Have we got enough of these characteristics to match IPS, Leeds and Southampton? I would say not except possibly Southampton. If we end up third then I’m not confident that Enzo and our players could pick themselves up for a playoff battle having been in control for 70% of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People complain how 'lucky' they are scoring scruffy, scrappy, deflected goals. That's because they shoot, with conviction! Meanwhile we're constantly trying to score the perfect goal. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one, because if we end up finishing in the play offs we would have totally ****ed it, and likely be on our arses and just get served up by anyone who plays us.

I think we’ll go unbeaten now i can too but no point jumping to conclusions as theres alot of football to be played; Ipswich and Leeds have some very tricky fixtures; likes of Hull, Coventry Southampton and we know how good they can be on their day, Coventry showed that today; also look at Millwall the other week, no one thought theyd get a win at Southampton but they did, thats the championship for you 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
