a m ole Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 What’s the Bristol record since Lee Johnson reminded us of our respective positions in the league after our 5-0 win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMcKenna Posted March 6, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted March 6, 2018 If wolves lose tomorrow and we beat them Saturday, THEY will be in the mix. This is a huge week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Good win. Didn’t use too much energy, could sub players to keep them fresh and Grealish returned. Happy days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted March 6, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted March 6, 2018 Bit of daylight between 4th and 5th now. The top four tonight will be the top four at the end of the season. What order is anyone’s guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not very good, but we've won at Deepdale something like once since 1362, we were never going to win tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Good primer for the Wolves game that, at least for once we will field our best team in a top of the table game. Cardiff are a bit of bad luck away from dropping points but sadly SHA next for them, Fulham have a tricky game on Sat against Preston who are gunning for the play-offs. Saturday could be a very interesting day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit- apparently he hit a PNE player, in which case a deserved red. Radio commentary can be useless at times Was a definite red, very stupid from flint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted March 6, 2018 Moderator Share Posted March 6, 2018 Wolves fans might want to not know this: The three teams chasing second collectively have 43pts from the last 18 games and 71 pts from the last 30. That includes games against each other. This chase is fierce. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I’m s big Leeds fan tomorrow, if they fail to win tomorrow and we win on Saturday it’s onky four points between us and them. That would be incredible but I expect them to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 The wolves match is a must win. If we lose, Wolves will likely finish first, and we will see Fulham overtake us, and Cardiff will be 7 points ahead. We can kiss 2nd place goodbye if we lose. Even a draw will do a lot of damage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Looking at what we have left I'd back us to get 20 + points no problem. If we can get 88-90 points we're going to be very unlucky not to make second imo (obviously one of those wins needs to be against Cardiff to close the gap on them). Think the maximum Fulham can get is 94 points. They surely won't keep winning right until May, that would be something like 19 wins out of 20! Said before but given where we on Boxing day I'll take this, we are still very much in the mix regardless of the Wolves game which I think will be a draw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I just did a predictor for ours, Cardiff's and Fulham's last games. I got Cardiff finishing on 92 points, Fulham on 91 and us on 90. The key fixture was us drawing with Cardiff. Win that and it puts us on 92 and Cardiff on 91. Those results also had us drawing the Wolves game. I know this is stating the obvious but we could really do with beating Wolves. Win that game and it does wonders for our automatic promotion chances. The three points. The players' confidence. The euphoria of beating top of the table in a local derby. The psychological damage it does to Wolves. I honestly think that Wolves will implode if we beat them Saturday and it will then open up another automatic promotion place to fight for.

Hang on a minute. Fulham are away to Preston which is a very hard game and Cardiff are at at home to ......oh yeah you're right. It's a must win.

dounavilla Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 The fight for 2nd is looking tighter than a collective set of the Beegees trousers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 4 points from Wolves-QPR. 4 points from Bolton-Hull. 3 points v Reading 4 points from Norwich-Ipswich 6 points from Leeds-Cardiff. 4 points from Derby-Millwall 91 points. Would surely be enough for second. 7 wins from 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 We need Bruce not to bottle it. He needs to have faith in our players and go after Wolves - getting them on the back foot from the first kick and get our crowd up for it and behind our players. Do that and we will see just what they are made of. If he picks a defensive team it will backfire and we might as well just give them the three points without kicking a ball. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
