    First time since the re-start that the bottom teams all lose. Obviously Stoke didn't but  I'm not worried about them. Just concerned about keeping Luton & Barnsley below us with a decent points gap. Maybe Hull too but I can't really see Wigan getting a stay of execution. 

    We just need to avoid a heavy defeat on Tuesday (no more than 2 or 3 max) and then try to pick up points against Reading, Birmingham & Wigan. 

    Bows could be right - 50 or 51 points might do it.

    3-0, 4-0 and 5-0. That Millwall result makes us look like Barcelona now. We don't score enough but at least our rearguard has been looking good since we came back.
  • Late winner for Cardiff keeps Millwall 5 points outside the play offs seems to have gone largely unnoticed on here. That and Palace taking a beating rounds off a great day for us.

    We can’t rely on Wigan’s points deduction - who knows if they’ll take it back. Have to stay above three of Luton / Barnsley / Boro / Hull / Hudders / Stoke.

    As Barnsley and Luton play each other on Tuesday that gap could close right up, we really need them to draw

    I can assure you it didn’t here but you know that , the same telly I was swearing at last night I was swearing at again for joyous  reasons when I saw the Bluebirds goal go in , that was my afternoon match of choice, good luck Neil Harris !

    Predictably as soon as I backed Barnsley & Luton to win they both got thumped, but i'm not complaining.

    Great day for us today & we are probably in a better position now than we were......and I can't believe I'm saying that after last night.
    We have dropped a place in the last 24 hours, Huddersfield have picked up a point and Hull & Boro have a game in hand on us.

    I cannot see a better position?
    Yet that was always the possibility with Stoke playing Barnsley... the worst case was Luton | Huddersfield | Wigan | Birmingham would all win too

    Run ins of those behind us plus Wigan and Wednesday whom I have assumed for these purposes both get -12 point deductions.  In this scenario I reckon we need one more win.  Barnsley a tough run in and Luton and Wigan 6 and 8 behind us respectively.

    QPR could have a big say on who goes down, seeing that their next 4 games are Boro, Wigan, Wednesday and Luton...

    I think we’re safe if Wigan get a 12 point deduction. Would prefer not to stay up that way though if we finish 22nd.

    Sorry, i have little sympathy & thems the rules. I bet Wigan weren't concerned that we had a transfer embargo during January & couldn't bring any players in.......that then impacted on us as we were playing kids & recalling players back from Bromley. 

    As Bows likes to say.....it is what it is.

    Plus I doubt any of our relegation rivals were upset that we were about to get relegated on PPG.

    Haha fuck that I'd take us finishing 23rd and Both Wigan and Sheffield Wednesday given hefty points deductions and them relegated instead if it came to it! They are dirty cheating bastards and the sooner the EFL take a stand and relegate teams for flouting the rules the better. In fact I'd love to see them make an example of them similar to Saracens in the rugby, with automatic relegation for teams breaking the rules, clubs will soon buck their ideas up
