Leeds fans will be delighted with Barnsley, Huddersfield, Boro and Hull looking like relegation candidates. Must be some appeal for them to allow a local rival to be relegated by playing the kids on the final day.
I seriously doubt the Leeds players are going to do us a favour after the whole Leko-Casilla thing.
Leeds do not need to do us a favour, we are to Leeds what Millwall are to us...............a pain in the arse.
Decent article, yet the way this restart has got going I feel it’s too obvious to say Wigan (after reduction), Barnsley and Luton to go down. I continue to believe one of Hull/Stoke/Boro will be in the bottom three.
Despite being on the same number of points with just 5 games to go the relegation betting odds are so different for us (9/2) compared to Huddersfield (12/1) and Stoke (14/1).

It'll be interesting to see how all the teams in the dog fight react after their defeats at the weekend as some got a bit of a tonking. I wouldn't like to nail my colours to the mast just yet although Stoke's result will have given them a massive confidence boost. Hull are scoring but leaking like a sieve and the new manager bounce with Colin W*nker at Boro has stalled. It's like pin a tail on the donkey but as long as it's not us I'm easy 😉.

Isn't it funny more people are betting on Charlton to go down who have no striker of quality over Stoke and Huddersfield who both have decent forwards.

We have 3 points more than Stoke and Huddersfield since restart, so keep that up and doesn’t really matter how many goals there forwards score.

Different difficulty of remaining fixtures and likelihood of scoring? Thank goodness our defence has being playing so well........

I don't disagree, I'm simply mocking gamblers lumping on the side that isn't scoring as many and are discounting the defensive record of 1 goal conceded since the restart.

I imagine that the odds would have been significantly different at 7pm on Friday before we lost to Millwall and Stoke won against Barnsley, as Stoke looked to be on the slide before than win.
Finally watching the Quest Saturday show, I was amazed the Barnsley keeper Walton was allowed to wear that kit, as it's surely too similar to what the outfield players were wearing?

Way too similar i had to zoom on to spot the keeper. Like a game of Where's Walton😉

Obviously can understand Huddersfield as they have a decent run in.
Stoke however play Leeds, Brentford and Birmingham (like we do), but they also have Forest and Bristol City to play, whilst we have Reading and Wigan so no real reason why their odds should be 14s if we're 9/2.

They seem to care far less than they used to about this, especially for keepers kits.
The players will surely be fired up for their caretaker manager though?
So why werent they fired up for Lee Johnson when there was a chance of the Play-Offs
I dont think Johnson became a bad Manager, I just think that by the time he got sacked, the players felt the PO's had gone so had nothing to play for
They had a definite chance of the playoffs 2 weeks ago, so why weren't they motivated then?
Johnson as they say is streaky, long runs of good form followed by long runs of bad form, where he doesn't seem to be able to do anything to turn things round

Refs too busy worrying about what kit they've got to wear.

Meanwhile we've also managed 4 points from our last 3, scoring 1 and conceding 1. We'll just have to convince ourselves that our way is better

I think that’s correct.

The former have clearly been on the beach since the restart and really dont expect any favours from them
Especially with Hull scoring so freely

The very definition of 'couldn't give a fuck'
