We’ll probably be fine

I used to really like KWP but now I think about it, he did do those mazy runs which often ended up him falling over and not getting a foul. And his defensive duties often went missing. Whereas Bree just looks solid ... stops the crosses one end and is actually pretty good at crossing/corners the other end. Don't know the background behind him leaving on loan for Charlton at the start of the season but the club probably wanted to distance itself from the players of the previous season. Hopefully those bridges have been repaired because he's got such a good engine and now one of the first names on the teamsheet.

Which is surprising as he’s not been treat very well. Probably waiting to see what other offers are on the table.

I've always liked him. Strikes the ball well. A proper footballer. Probably never going to be a top international but one of the first on your team sheet.

Won't the met police resources already be stretched on the Sunday due to having to police the London marathon...?

It’s often the way though. Forest went up in the play offs after being bottom early in the season. I remember Palace were mid table all season a few years ago put a run together and went up. Usually the 3 relegated teams are better and there are always 2-3 strong teams already there but this year there is not much between anyone. Makes the league interesting at least

Hull might have been too early, although all the negative signs were there. It was the Swansea game where I felt it was over. And we got so bad I could confidently put money on Preston to win at St Marys. Action just 3 games earlier might have yielded at least 3 points that would make all the difference at the end of the season.

There's greater flexibility on the Sunday as well, assuming the Met request an earlier kick off, whereas there should be no concerns for our game.

Let's be honest, it's a pretty crap league this year. The fact we are still talking about possibly sneaking into the autos (extremely unlikely granted) given our horrendous start, says it all.

Sneak into fifth. Spanked from the cup. The rest is unwritten.

I’m pleased for them too, been through a torrid time and have been the best team over the course of the season. Interesting to look at previous league tables and see that for most seasons in the last 10 years teams need 97 or more points to win the league, Coventry will likely fall short of that

Good results for us so far today. A Hull loss to Cov would make it great. I think Ipswich being 2nd and out of the playoffs is ideal. We are currently 9 points off 3rd with 2 games in hand, so I feel that 3rd and 4th are both very much in play if we keep our recent form going. It would be good to get that home playoff advantage; I felt it was a real factor in getting past West Brom two years ago.

Their best case (a draw tomorrow) sees them 7 points off sixth with only 5 games to play. Not impossible but very improbable. They’ve also got Ipswich, Derby and Hull to play, tough run in.

The performance v Arsenal shows we can adapt during a game and have effective subs, also play football for two halves. Wrexham is another huge game. Win it and we are in the during seat. Wrexham 2-3 Saints.

Probably a bit late with games left and a 6 point game, 8 if we win tomorrow

If Coventry win tonight then surely the title is theirs. Happy for them, a proper club, but not looking forward to Lampards smug face

I wonder if Norwich could gatecrash the playoffs? Probably not which is a good thing because I would not fancy playing them.

If Coventry beat Hull then that's a decent set of results for us again. Would mean a win tomorrow and we've caught on Hull, Millwall, Middlesbrough and obviously overtaken Wrexham.

The amount of shots Fellows blasts over high and wide each game a few have got to hit the back of net. Soon before games run out.

He looked good and definitely kept Wednesday in the game first half and long periods of the second half. Like Baz though, he doesn’t look like the biggest of keepers. Wiki says he’s 6 ft 1 which by modern standards isn’t big. Can’t fault him today though, did very well.

Fantastic use of the word glovesman 👏👏👏👏

Had this from a Wendy supporting mate earlier... It's essentially what SR hoped Baz would be, but the difference being he's actually good at the traditional side of goalkeeping as well.

City 4-2 Saints. Last game Preston 1-4 Saints to seal 6th place possibly on goal difference. Play off Boro 1-1 Saints and Saints 2-1 Boro. Play off Final Saints 3 (Ross Stewart 9min, Charles 52 min, Manning 82 min ) -1 Millwall.

Ipswich’s day overall
