Happy to Save that for play offs Just win this one and see where we are at the end. I'd be interested to see where we are with regards to points behind second place and compare that to the number of points we were behind 3rd (the final promotion spot) in league 2 at the same stage of the season.

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted January 14, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted January 14, 2023 I don't think the top 3 will be so comfortably off by mid march. We just need to keep winning and hope it pressures them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainmed Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I’d be delighted with a point here. Then beat FGR & we should have a nice buffer down to 7th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the odds that they will finish in the play offs, so not quite the same as the odds of dropping out of the top 2 (but it’s unlikely they would drop to 7th or below).

RUREADY2ROLL Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Think Derby will be fighting for the automatic places so this is a massive game; just don’t lose. 7 points from the next 3 games and we can’t be ruled out of catching Plymouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The points difference is only one aspect. It has to be looked at alongside the rate at which the club in that final promotion position are accumulating points. In the league table above, Cheltenham Town were averaging 1.69 points per match, whereas Sheffield Wednesday are currently averaging 2.11 points per match. That makes it more difficult to catch them even if the gap in points is slightly smaller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some context Portsmouth have 2 points There being a top 3 is already putting pressure on / focusing performances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mounts Kipper Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Sheff wed win the league for me, got a bit of everything but they do the big, physical ugly side better than anyone and keep churning out the wins…we’d take second if it wasn’t for that shitty run just before Xmas. I don’t rate Derby, despite our record down there it’s a winnable game.

green genie Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) If from now on in we swap form the table finishes with us on 90 and you on 87 so possible As you have away games at Derby and Weds as well as another 6 of top 13 good luck with that Edited January 16, 2023 by green genie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted January 16, 2023 Moderators Share Posted January 16, 2023 im also in the plymouth arent top 2 material, camp as for saturday, im going 2 or 3 to derby, 1 or 2 to us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Personally think people are being slightly harsh on Plymouth just based on the ‘size’ of the clubs behind them (and possibly the fact they looked poor at our place, although I think they’ve got about 4 new players this window who will likely improve them). Obviously a long way to go, and I think Sheff Weds will catch them and win the league, but I’m not as convinced on Ipswich who don’t look too strong and I think us and Derby are too far away to catch them even with a really good run. I do think it will bunch up compared to the current position but personally I’d go Sheff Weds Plymouth Derby / Bolton / Ipswich in some order from 3-5 Maybe a bit of an outsider like Peterborough taking the last play off spot.
