    With a game in hand on Pompey? If results are kind to us?

    Mental. Nuts.

    No. :);)

    Edit. OK Seriously now. For us to be 2nd tonight we need Barnsley to Win, Derby to Draw/Lose Home to Cheltenham, Peterboro to lose at Lincoln & Bolton to lose at Carlisle.

    Stranger things have happened but it's highly unlikely. The best we can do is keep plugging away, doing our thing and one day we might be in a position to go for the Top 2 in the last 10 games of the season. But Top 2 today is out of the question really

    Yes it is possible but unlikely. Automatic is very much in reach though.

    Actually, if we win and Bolton draw at Carlisle, we'll move above Bolton on goal difference.

    Other than 2 games against Bolton, we've got a pretty kind run-in. I'd be confident of autos if I didn't think the EFL would shaft us on charges after we've done all the hard work.

    Not only would we need all the above to occur, we also have a 4 goals GD deficit with Peterborough, so they'd need to lose heavily at Lincoln and we'd need to batter Exeter.
