I'd be very concerned.

Psychologically it would be a massive blow to be in the play offs after being 8 points clear of third place with 7 games to go.

Also we look absolutely knackered at the moment and another two or maybe three games could be asking too much of a team that seems to have run out of ideas in the last few games.

Also feel that a few of our players are carrying injuries or are not at 100% fitness.

We could well be heading into the play offs with little or no momentum and that could trip us up also.

Let's hope it doesn't come to that!

I think we will win the playoffs if that’s where we end up.

I think if we miss out on automatic the play offs are ours to win.
This team will go on a winning 3/4 game run at some point and if it’s not soon then look out play offs whoever we meet.

I’d fancy our chances over two legs against any of the teams likely to be in the play-offs. It’s then a lottery in the final.

Wouldn’t give up on top two just yet though.

We have 5 games left .
Here's an idea treat them like the play offs .
You know don't lose and try to win them all
But we need to take one game at a time .
Hopefully win tomorrow and Fulham draw , it will look a whole lot different.

I'm still hoping and praying for automatic but if that fails I don't fear any side in the playoffs with Wolves and Fulham out of the way. Added to that we've got the best manager in the league and that's worth a head start.

Looks like Warnock won't rush Ralls back, I think he wants him available for the final few games and playoffs if we just miss out.

If we lost a few, Warnock would start resting players in preparation, with a fully fit squad and key players rested, we should have enough to win them.


Fingers crossed though we win the next five and go up automatically !!!!

I still maintain 3 wins and we will go up automatic. However if I’m the playoffs we have a chance but think Millwall are going to win them.
