Leicester docked 6 points. We could be a league above them next season!

We won’t be, they’ll stay up, but it is mad how quickly football changes

You mean the Leyland Autoglass Paint Trophy ?

Took EFL 21 days to decide and left us with a trip to Luton on date tba within two weeks when there is already a midweek full fixture list.

You can make up for it next weekend.

Would arguably be an even bigger favour.

Don’t get your hopes up.

we have eight players out including our best 5 .

Potential for a bit of movement at the top end of the league today.

You’d expect us, Huddersfield and Stockport to all win our home games (Stockport possibly with the hardest vs Orient).

Luton v Bradford - ideally a draw so that the gap to 7th widens and Bradford continue to drop away. If there’s going to be a win then I’d expect Luton (which isn’t the worst thing as I can’t see us being in danger of dropping out of the play offs).

Cardiff and Lincoln have tricky away games. Rotherham are in a bit of form with 2 wins and a draw in their last 3 and although Plymouth lost last time out at Stockport, they’d only lost 1 of their previous 10. I think there’s a good chance of at least one of them drawing, possibly even a loss.

Prediction is that come this evening the gap to the top 2 has closed a bit (and Bradford continue to slide).

Caveat - I’m shit at betting

@green genie might not be so confident re the Plymouth game. He mentioned their injury list is bigger than a ski jumper’s todger.

Yeah I saw that. Not ideal but I was just going off our experience - whenever we get told teams have an injury crisis they end up playing like you’d never have known.

To be honest, they all might just end up winning like the last few weeks - it just looked like it could be one of those where a win actually gains ground rather than keeps up.

Fingers crossed we do our bit and one or two do actually slip up!

I hope you’re right and Plymouth grab all three points!

Your predictions are definitely from the glass half full department mate, but if as you say, you’re shit at betting, why not stick 50 quid on us to lose and slide down the table as everyone else wins, and hedge against the potential emotional trauma? 😀

If you genuinely are shit at betting, we’d be in with a good chance of results going our way.

Bradford look garbage.

I reckon at best, they cling onto a play off spot - there’s no way they’re good enough to go and chase down 2nd. This would be their 4th loss in 5 games

Hope you're right, but we had a bad patch recently, and also looked garbage.

Fingers crossed though.

Daft as it may seem, we're at the stage now, where if we won all our remaining games, we would be promoted. 

One caveat being Stockport could pass us on goal difference.

Dapo looks bang average at best playing for Rovers.Still knows how to dive for FK though.

Norwich strikers shooting on sight and are pulling away from danger under Clement.

How do we overtake the top two if they win theirs apart from the game against us and the game against each other when someone will get points?
