    I reckon Scunny. Form team and been under the radar all season.


    Will the blunts turn up and compete or roll over and have their belly tickled?


    Gillingham are out of form and are winless in 7 whilst Millwall are assured a play off spot and may rest key players.

    Our game at Wigan is the toughest of the lot I reckon and difficult to call. Wigan already promoted and barring a 21 goal swing are champions. Will they rest players or want to go up in style?


    We could lose and finish 6th but then again could win and finish 7th.

    Not good for the heart this football mullarky.

    We are in position so I guess we are favourites.

    In theory we are - already in the spot and the sides below us have to do better than us
    In practice Id say scunny. They are in a purple patch and I expect them to beat the blunts - whether the blunts are trying or not I just think Scunny would turn them over even if they still had a chance themselves
    Also Scunny havent been in the top 6 all season - It wouldnt be the first time a side had snatched 6th spot for the first time on the last day

    Having said all that Gillingham are due a result and Millwall have nothing to play for

    If I had to put money on anyone it would be Scunny though

    Bookmakers have us as favourites, I think Gillingham with a home game to come.

    Personally, I reckon Scunny. I did think it was us climbing the league and sneaking in but now I reckon we'll finish 7th.

    Scunny's last three trips to Bramall Lane:


    Lost 2-1

    Lost 3-0

    Lost 4-0

    If a team with Wiseman, Dawson and O'Brien pips us to the playoffs, we've not deserved it.

    All we can focus on is beating Wigan. If we do that, I expect us to be 6th by 2.20pm Sunday.

    Scunny i'd have had as favourites. Playing a team managed by a guy who's fond memories there and Blunts will be well up for making sure they don't lose their games to us next season.

    Millwall have to win to guarantee a home tie for 2nd leg

    Also a bit of rivalry there as well.

    Wigan already up as champions nothing to play for let's hope they are in party mode. And we are fully focused for our most important game of the season our cup final. We are favorites but not by much.

    S****horpe, but could see the stars aligning for Gillingham now after we slipped up on Sat and still let them have a chance to get in.
