All you really need to do is not lose to West Brom. If you lose that then the pressure is really on you. Draw or win tomorrow and you really should have enough even if you lose to us.

We had 12 points after 13 games and were sitting 3 points above the relegation zone. I, like many on here gave us zero chance of making playoffs. The fact that we're even in the conversation for 2nd is truly remarkable. Ipswich will get over the line, but we're the best team in the playoffs. We just need to make sure that we turn up when it matters

Man City vs Saints - Saturday 5.15pm

Good luck in your game tomorrow. It's nothing to do with league placings or who gets what in the Championship this season, just sincere wishes you can do it and go on to reach the Final. Wanted you to do it back in 2003 when think Gordon Strachan were manager but wasn't to be. Now there's another opportunity in clear sight to win it again and it would be great for neutrals on the 50 year anniversary. mid-late 1970's was a great time when teams like ours won the competition, beating bigger clubs in the Final when few gave it a chance. Just go out this weekend and believe you can do it, the opposition are far from indestructible and last years final just goes to prove all things are possible at this stage of competition. -

Ipswich fan here of many years. Felt compelled to register what with both teams involved for automatic promotion and we play you in a short time in a game of huge significance. Your FA Cup involvement is going to be interesting, in fact it already is, and if you were to reach the Final again it'll make interesting focus on the remaining league games. Disappointed that Leicester couldn't hold out for a win tonight. Awful team there with mediocre players that are now relegated and they came within seconds of beating a team that really required it and now occupy the automatic promotion places because if it. It surely didn't help Saints either. We now have to win at least 1 of our remaining games to overtake and we're not always playing that good and helped at times by questionable referee standards. QPR at home final day is the key fixture but even that may not be enough. That draw tonight may have seen them drop two points but it's made both our jobs tougher with games remaining. How do you get an avatar around here 😐

Agreed it's not going to happen. But at least if we beat Ipswich it'll go down to the last day and maybe make things semi interesting..
-
Good read. I was there. One of the best days of my life.
-
Why is no one giving Oxford a chance ? they beat Wednesday tomorrow they will go to the den with confidence & a chance of staying up ! West Brom need to beat or draw with Ipswich tomorrow.. .. Tuesday I think we beat Ipswich under the lights at st Mary’s …….. it’s not over yet ! enjoy tomorrow 💪🏻
-
We are not going to do it. At least one of the other 2 will do enough. They probably both will. Just like we were always going to beat Coventry on our last day back in 2012.
-
Personally, I can’t see it now. In some ways confirmation tomorrow makes it easier for us. Can go hell for leather at Wembley, then manage the players in the last 2. Rotate a few, rest a couple, prepare for the play offs. Rather that than push players to the brink next week and ultimately fail. Just keep us ticking over and we”ll be fully ready for the play offs.
-
Yes, my mistake. So an even bigger advantage for us then. GD won't be a factor in whether or not we finish above Millwall.
-
Indeed. There's a notable lack of support for them on here now.
-
Indeed. And for us to now match their points total it would require them to lose to Oxford, and for us to win one and draw one of our remaining games. So there's no possible scenario now where they finish above us on GD.
-
Ipswich need 4 points, QPR home is a gimme, so they need a point tomorrow to make our game pretty irrelevant. WBA need a draw to ensure safety. I know what result my moneys on from WBA Ipswich…

Their vetting is still not working. That’s seriously Neo Nazi even for Reform. Mind you, it is Devon https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4g51jl2zzno
-
So we need a 8 goal swing in two games. That’s lot.
-
Okay so we need West Brom to beat Ipswich and Hull to beat Charlton tomorrow. Us to beat Ipswich on Tuesday (more goals the better) and then it’s Hoping for Millwall to drop points at an Oxford scrapping to stay up and us trying to make up any goal difference swing away to PNE. Highly unlikely but also not entirely impossible I guess … What I would say is the commentators were saying Millwall would be feared in the play offs. I don’t think so. Neil is no mug and they absolutely could beat us but they don’t look great based on tonight’s showing.
-
Big part of the reason Millwall struggled tonight was the injuries to their attackers, just need to hope they have 'one of those days' against Oxford now, assuming we do our bit to take it to the last day of the season.
-
If Coburn is out next weekend you never know…. They looked shite when he went off. Over to you West Brom.
-
Well, one point is plenty to finish second rather than third.
