@owlstalk Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Ok so sitting pretty in fourth (and poor Leeds dropping out to 7th!) Looking at the table now what would you predict will happen in terms of which teams will move up, which will drop out, who will stumble and what will the final positions be?

Eaton_Swfc Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 (edited) Derby definitely won't be in the playoffs, I can confidently predict that. Edited April 25, 2017 by Eaton_Swfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwokenGiant Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Think Leeds and Fulham are fighting for the last spot, us Reading and Huddersfield fighting for the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd back Fulham over doing more than Leeds now They're looking way stronger Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owly Mowly Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Fulhams goal difference is incredible especially compared to readings. I reckon it'll finish Reading Hudders Owls Fulham owls v Fulham final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I don't care as long as we get some more points and soon. Mmmm points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almat Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 (edited) That table illustrates what I've been saying for a while - we won't get a better opportunity to get to the PL! 2 of the 4 teams in the Play off places (Reading and Huddersfield) have GD's of 1 and 2 respectively. Ridiculous. I mean, ours is nowt to write home about but still way better than theirs. We MUST take advantage this season.

To be fair we said that last season, and at the start of this season on paper this was supposed to be the hardest championship in a long long time. We've not been great all season and we're still there. I think we might just do it this season, and have one of them weird seasons where you dont feel like theyve played well but achieved a lot.

Owling Wolfe Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 If Huddersfield lose tonight I see us staying in at least 4th, possibly up to 3rd after we win our last 2 games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lomas613 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I recon me chansiri and carvahal need to give mr McCarthy a ring tell them if he lets us win Saturday we will let Fulham win last match therefore leaving Leeds to rot another season in champ sack manager and crumble some more. No one likes Leeds McCarthy should be up for that :D haha. Serious note as as it stands will be how it stays I think. Happy with 4th away first leg home advantage second leg.

andytrig Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 (edited) It just shows how important winning this Saturday is. If we lose and Leeds win the last day is going to be incredibly tense. Edited April 25, 2017 by andytrig Mistype Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian_D Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 So the 2 points per game average got Newcastle automatic promotion. I seem to remember this average points target was known by someone on here around the start of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewookieisdown Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Objectively I reckon Leeds are more likely to win on Saturday than we are. Overall I think that although fourth is great we still stand a fair chance of being squeezed out. The 1/20 or less you see around the place seems unrealistic to me. We should be more like 1/5 or 1/6 to hit play offs. I don't really understand the comments suggesting we haven't done particularly well this season. It's a deeply competitive league. You can't easily spend your way to the top two (which is just as well for us). Some expectations seem to have parted company with reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said from start of season myself though that people are expecting too much of villa and Norwich the only team I did think would do something was Newcastle and Brighton and ironically they top 2. I believed we would be amongst it and rubbished suggestions otherwise but like you say we've played poor at times but achieved a lot so still stand by my gut owls will get up his season.

Flat Owl Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 This is where our experience gained from last year should start to pay off as others get a bit jittery. A Hudders loss or draw can only be a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
