We were 12th in the table, 3 points behind 8th placed Blackburn Rovers. We are now 8 places and 14 points ahead of them. We were 11 points behind Reading. We could now go level on points with them if we win our game in hand. We were 10 points above the relegation zone. We are now 22 points above.
Ideally a draw but failing that a Reading win is OK - if we keep winning we will pass them soon enough - you expect promotion chasing sides to beat the bottom 3 sides so no big deal
I could never want Wednesday to win. If we are gonna go up, we'll have to catch up with Reading another day. There's plenty of time.
Someone on their forum said we'd finish 20 points ahead of them. He upped that to 25 but I think he needs to up it to at least 30.
I think I'm more the opposite school of thought. I'd sooner them win and win big. Get Readings goal difference down and then watch their hopes be dashed the week later when it turns out it was just a fluke result. It's the hope that kills you ...
