[Sima]

You’d think teams would step out against them.

[Bizza]

95th minute ffs

[Klaus]

West Brom playing later on.

 

Miwwaw still above them in the final spot as well

[toontownman]

Exciting last day coming up! 

[Rich]

Fair fucks for this comeback, though Watford are absolutely rotten. Loads of the filthy fucks left at 2-0 and then at 2-1 in added time, mind .

[TheHoob]

Put the last few minutes of their match on, I'm assuming it's the club's own stream. Any ideas who they have on co comms? Total lunatic, just keeps screeching

Danny Higginbotham?

[NUFCDoog]

That point will get them in the play offs, they'll best Preston pretty comfortably I imagine and get in on GD

[The Prophet]

They fucked that today. They're still in with a chance, but it's out their hands.

[Paullow]

No longer in their hands, but that's a massive goal for them.

 

If they beat Preston and Coventry lose away at Boro they will go above them, and a Sunderland win would mean they would defo finish above either Millwall or Blackburn with them playing each other, and almost certainly above WBA as well, so still a very good chance for them to sneak in, but they obviously have to win their final match.

[Wolfcastle]

Bad feeling they'll do it whereas were done before that equaliser

win the last game, Coventry could well lose to Boro unless Boro want to do a 1996 and have a skive to shaft a neighbour, Millwall and Blackburn screw each other

They wouldn’t though they need milwall to not win.

Aye but I don't see Coventry winning at Boro

They'll finish ahead of Coventry though, as they'll lose to Boro

Coventry losing would do it too

[Paullow]

Yep, if Boro beat Coventry then a win will 99.9% see them into the playoffs.

Will they? Cov are decent and boro lost to Luton in their last game. Not so sure that’s a given

Frankie Francis from the documentary. I think he was stadium PA previously.

 

As commentators go he’s really poor. Heard better on Northern League highlights. 

[Geordie Ahmed]

So ideally we need Boro to let Coventry draw and then one of Millwall/Blackburn to win

Yeah it would but Cov are decent and can definitely beat Boro

Boro guaranteed play offs may want to "rest" a few

Yeah I think Boro will play that game half arsed. Regardless I think Boro will go up in the playoffs. 

[Paullow]

Preston went on a good run a few weeks ago to put themselves in a good position to make the playoffs, but have since only taken 1 point from 4 games - that last second equaliser vs Blackburn. They had won 5 from 6 or 6 wins and 2 draws from 9, but just looked who they beat and it's 6 of the bottom 7 - Wigan, Cardiff, Rotherham, Blackpool, QPR, Reading. Minus 11 as well which suggests they are a poor side, so a good chance Sunderland will win.

 

Hopefully Millwall win and Coventry draw and it will all be academic. They're obviously in a far worse position than they were 3 hours ago, but it could have been so much better from our perspective.
