If we can just get to within 2 points by the last game... If you're talking about Fulham, don't forget we play them so really we should be looking at it like we'd be 4 off them with 4 to go... At the moment I think we should be looking at Sheff Wed as the benchmark. We could well be 6 points off them with 5 to go on Saturday night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can win the next 3 with Preston and Derby only getting 3 points from their next three that would make it very very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post markavfc40 Posted April 4, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2017 (edited) Four games ago we were 17 points off sixth. Now we are 9. The only thing we can control is our own results so lets just keep winning and see where it takes us.

If Fulham have to play Sheffield Wednesday that is bad if one teams win, good if they draw as a 2 point gain will be made. We are still in there. We are still fighting and they still have to go there and get something and I tell, honestly, I will love it if we beat them. Luv it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preston with the next two games they have look easier to catch. I would fear that Wolves will be a pushover, they have won 5 in a row! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dappadan Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Fulham had 14% possession tonight! Don't think I have ever seen that low. That defeat could de rail them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed it would be ridiculously low regardless of that...and would mean Deby had 86% possession, which would be even more ridiculous. I'm calling this out as fake news.

The more important stat is that they were hammered 4-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NottingVilla Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Their OS has 14% must be all the same source because Fulham fans on their forum calling it BS too. I don't believe it for a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Junxs Posted April 5, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 5, 2017 If we can keep winning, it's going to be tight! Sheffield Wednesday (66) - Newcastle (H), Cardiff (H), QPR (A), Derby (H), Ipswich (A), Fulham (H) - LWDLW? - 7 points before finale (73) Fulham (64) - Ipswich (H), Norwich (A), Villa (H), Huddersfield (A), Brentford (H) , Sheffield (A) - WLLLW? - 7 points before finale (71) Villa (57) - Burton (A), Reading (H), Fulham (A), Birmingham (H), Blackburn (A), Brighton (H) - WWWWW? - 15 points before finale (72) if we win every game, we'll be sitting on 72 before the final game.. sandwiched between the 2 of them whilst waiting for Brighton to come visit us. I've got some time to kill so I'll add Preston and Derby fixtures and predictions: Preston (61) - Leeds (A), Huddersfield (A), Norwich (H), Newcastle (A), Rotherham (H), Wolves (A) - LLWLWD (68) Derby (59) - Birmingham (A), Brentford (A), Huddersfield (H), Sheffield W (A), Wolves (H), Rotherham (A) - WDLWDW (69) So it seems Huddersfield are playing most of our rivals! lets wish them well!! of course if we don't beat Burton now then I've just wasted half an hour! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 If Sheffield and Fulham draw. And we win we are 7 and 5 behind. We best Fulham and we are 2 behind Fulham. That's just those two rounds taken out of context. But looking at the draw.. Fulham have a tougher run. Really is Sheffield that need to struggle more for us to catch. Seems hard.. but the more we win.. the closer it gets. One game at a time though.. Sheffield should lose to Newcastle. Fulham should see off Ipswich and us winning leaves us 7 behind Fulham and only 6 behind Sheffield with 5 to go. Squeaky bum time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 a little bit of info for the ironists IF we dont get to the playoffs and one of the following do Fulham - A set of players who were apparently against having McC back SheffW - Barry Bannan plays for them Preston - Callum Robinson plays for them Derby - Had Pearson, McClaren & Rowett as managers this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
