Leicester have us at home, then away to Palace, home to Watford, away to Forest.

... & on a poor run (notwithstanding a game v us due, so that can turn around). That's terrible difficult, who-ever you are. Plus, that means Palace & Forest will drop points if Leicester do pick them up !!

mmmmm

Forest have the best run-in. I could easily make a case for them winning all four of those.

Can see Brighton struggling a bit at Peterbrough and possibly Leeds.....

It's so hard to read....

Personally I think it looks like 3 wins needed........

I'd discount Leicester in terms of being a worry for us. IF they get in the play-offs I don't think we will be.

Finish above Forest and for me we'll be there......I think!

Looks likely that's what we'll have to do!

the 2 home games are our best bet for points, anything away from home is a bonus.

I can see it coming down to the Blackpool game at the Bok. what an atmosphere that will be

So did Millwall lose today? If they didn't they're not exactly out of the running either, Shirley?

Final Table

Palace 4th 73 Pts
Brighton 5th 72 Pts
Forest 6th 72 Pts
Bolton 7th 70 Pts
Leicester Out of it on 63 Pts

I don't believe Bolton have the ability and quality to get Three points against Leicester battling to stay in the mix or Cardiff required for us to pip Forest.

When I wrote at beginning of Feb that we could make it to challenge for a play off spot I believed we could get there. Now I just don't bottom line is we have to win on Tuesday to have a chance. Any of the five listed above could make it as long as the have the belief and mental strength. All have the ability but now it is about mental strength and belief.

We have been given a chance due to other teams dropping points, now we have to take it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Really? I mean...really???

The teams around us have been haemorraging points recently. Avoid defeat at Leicester, beat Boro and 'Pool, and nick summat at Cardiff. Doable, very doable to get 7 or 8 from these last 6 games and sneak a playoff place.

interesting that you think Palace will pick up 7 points with 3 out of the final 5 away from home... no goals in 4 games no win in 6 and 1 win in 8... Ipswich will beat them on Tuesday, Leicester will bounce back from us beating them and they'll beat Palace, Blackburn will be fighting for their lives and they'll beat Palace and Millwall & Peterborough won't be easy... I don't see them picking up 7 points... 3 maximum

Agree no goals in four games, actually 1 win in 6 and 3 wins in 8. Form is temporary and Palace have enough class to pick up 7 points. Hope I am wrong and they only get 3 points..

These next four games are about 'Bottle' more than form, whichever teams keep theirs will be in the play offs.
