    How are Walsall near the top? They'll not get 20 pts in the Championship. Wigan will get automatic promotion, best team in the league.

    Shame about Southend and Posh. If either of those had drawn or lost would have been a perfect day.... Except losing our manger before a pivotal couple of weeks but you know what I mean!

    We actually go above the Thugs if we win tomorrow. Who'd have thought that a week or two ago?

    Win by any score will do. We will then have the same goal difference but will have scored more than them.

    Bad results for us today.

    Those who may finish 6th all won. Couldn't have been worse.

    Why bother about Bradford Sheff U or Rochdale?

    Today's results show why we won't get into the play offs. Blunts losing doesn't change owt as they weren't going to get into the play offs anyway. The teams who are more likely to stay above us - Millwall, Peterborough and Southend - all won. This is the difficulty we face.

    Yeah - you're the bloke who said there's "no chance"of us making the playoffs.

    At least you've retreated to "more likely" we won't make it.

    No I haven't.

    I said those three teams are more likely to stay above us than Sheffield United. One of the teams between 6th and 11th will finish above us.

    This run will come to an end. What if one of those three - or all of those three - win their next six? Then what?

    OK - you're sticking with your "no chance" of the play offs then.

    Not in your opinion - just factual.

    This happy clapper is in full agreement with Conan. Too many teams between us and 6th. They can't all have bad runs and our incredible run will end at some point.

    8 points isn't huge, but 8 teams (or whatever the number is) is significant.

    Ok. In my opinion we will not get into the play offs. This will become a fact when it is no longer mathematically possible.

    Thanks. I know you agreed with me last week when I had the same debate with the same poster.

    In that case you may well be back on my Christmas card list.

    They're the teams around us, 6th position isn't, at the moment. One step at a time...

    There's a bigger picture out there.

    We're after 6th. The teams around us are irrelevant to that.

    That's all that counts. 6th.
