We'll win on Monday and that'll kill off all the challengers.

 

Means nothing if Huddersfield keep winning. They'll be 2 points behind us if they keep winning which will drag it out to the final day.

We've been trying to fucking eek out promotion result by result rather than being confident and going out and playing football. Its no surprise as the pressure has cranked up this has imploded so spectacularly. Rafa and the players want shot with shit for the sorry excuse for football they've been putting out for the 2nd half of the season in particular. Its an absolute pisstake.

Spot on.

fuckin hell, we could only be 2 points ahead by the next time we play?

 

 

Yep. Huddersfield play their game in hand the day after too.

 

Is that presuming we either lose or draw with Preston (as it stands with Huddersfield beating Derby)?

No, they're 5 points behind if they win today and they play before us again next weekend. Win that and they'll be 2 behind us with a game in hand at kick off on Monday.

We seem to have minus momentum at the moment. The tension vs Preston is going to be huge, especially if they come to SJP to sit in and frustrate us, which is likely. There won't be any pressure on the teams we're playing- plus they will naturally be fired up to play/beat us.

 

I just cannot believe we are in such a position, especially after that fantastic week where we beat both Brighton and Hudds away. Rafa is going to need to try and settle the waters of the team for the Preston match. Imo if we win that then we are all but up, but anything less and it's a fucking shit storm for real.

 

Rafa and the players need to look at it that as it stands, and not taking into account Huddersfield's game in hand, we are 5pts ahead with 3 games to play; we are still in control of what happens to us this season but it's going to take some calm heads to get us 4pts from 3 games essentially.

 

Beat Preston and we're at the finish line imo. Lose, and it's play-offs.

They won't have a game in hand at kick off.
