I recon either Portsmouth, Coventry or us will be top 2! Last ten games the form guide is looking good. I think Pompy will win the league and I hope we beat coventry to 2nd!

We need to keep the momentim going and not blow up like we did at the end of last season.
Transfer window being closed the off field antics cant effect the rest if the season.
The team seem to be coming together as a group and working for each other. I just hope the mid season dive in results is far behind us!

The kind of game I love....And hate. Great for the mind but dangerous for the ticker.

The two things you might have to your advantage is that it is a long hard season. They might have dropped off by then. Or if they do keep going as they are now they will already be promoted.

But there is a long way to go yet. Looks like it is down to who are now un the top 10 because of games in hand. And the games in hand are getting very important. For instance Peterborough are on a great run. But they only have 13 games left. We have 16 games left. You have 15 games left. Lots of games involving clubs at the top. Doesn't take a lot to fall away from the pack. Yesterday you had to win just to stay in touch.

Is certainly warming up now.

I agree, we have had our shite spell now expect us to go up via the play offs at the very least now, keep up the momentum and go on a good run and automatics are easily achievable. Can’t wait to see the back of this league

Yes you are on a decent run. But over the last 5 games 4 of the clubs above you have got more points. The other club, Wycombe, have only got 1 point less. And they are getting caught by the club's below them.

You need to be on a good run just to stay where you are a lit of the time. The teams who are in the top 6 now all won this weekend.

We are 1 point behind Peterborough but we have 3 games in hand over them. And we have only lost 3 games all season. They have played more games than anyone else. If there was mire games left I might agree. But they are running out of time.

Still think they'll finish top two. You draw too many. They've found a winning formula and formation since they dropped Maddison.

Have only started winning games away from home at the end of last year. Now all of our away games are against sides in the bottom half. Before then we were in the same position in the table but the other clubs had games in hand over us. Now we have the games in hand because of the FA cup run. Win the games in hand and we go top whatever the other clubs do.

But as we all know it isn't as simple as that. We also play most of the top sides at home (kind of)
 
Good win yesterday and generally the clean sheets are doing us well BUT we won’t go up automatically by drawing v the Doncaster’s and losing v the Portsmouth’s. They are games we must win. We have to beat top 6 sides when we play them like yesterday to go up automatically.

unless we get a tune out of one of our strikers we will not finish top 2, can’t rely on midfielders scoring the goals needed. Unless things change it will be play offs again IMO

We only lost 5 games all season last year and finished 5th. Not losing doesn’t always mean winning.

Also, WTF is there a Coventry fan posting on our forum?
 
I think the top two last year at this point would have been Luton & Barnsley and they stayed there. I still expect it to be Pompey & one other like.
 
Rotherham
Coventry
Portsmouth
Sunderland
Peterborough
Ipswich

That will be top 6. Think we're destined to get Portsmouth again at Wembley. Just can't see us getting top 2 if I'm honest. If we can somehow win at Oxford and Coventry then I'd probably change my mind 😁
