Tamworthowl Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 The gap between blades and 7th is 8 points but they've played to games more. The gap between us and 6th is 9 points, no games in hand. Totally different. I'm more hopeful that they finish 7th than us 6th. If we were to "nearly do it", it would mean Derby/Bristol don't challenge Utd. Don't really want that. Need them to start panicking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking a fiver on us to reach the playoffs and a fiver on the pigs to go up as a cover. I'd happily lose a fiver if it jinxed them and I'd buy the drinks before the semi final.

I always enjoy watching Wednesday, its why I do it all the time. Do people actually not enjoy it sometimes? Can't say I enjoyed watching us lose at Hull few weeks back...did anyone else? That's football though love watching Wednesday as it is a way of life. But not always enjoyable is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me and my lad, just like me and my dad did. Blue and white stripes on the pitch. All that malarkey. If I only got enjoyment from the result or style of football I'd have topped myself years ago.

But so are Leeds, Boro, Baggies. The whole division is full of bottlers. So which is most likely: Us to catch Derby / Bristol, or Bristol / Derby to catch Utd. Ill say for the latter. Or course, I'd rather we pip Utd for the final play off place: 17 points, 2 games in hand and a game v them. But I'll keep the hope firmly locked away out of harms way until the gap closes quite a bit more thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 It's a 3 game week in the championship. You can bet that some teams hopes and dreams for the season will be different come the end of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Soul Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I’m 55 Ive seen it all I have no fear i doubt the players have either. I have a positive outlook. Id like to think the manager and players do too. Im optimistic we can reach the play offs this season. Until I know otherwise, I will remain positive and optimistic.... cause I’m 55 and seen it all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box_Man Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Yeah massive week Think if we have taken 9 points by 5pm next Saturday then we can have a tilt at it. Im sure Villa fans think they still got a shot at the play offs and they are 6 points in front of us but played two more games, Big week this tho!

Owly Mowly Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I’m 45 too! Wonder if 45 is the average age of a Wednesdayite? Anyway, win next 3 and there might be a little excitement building.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mkowl Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 We aren't going to get to the play offs Just chill and hopefully we can play some half decent football, upset one or two promotion challengers along the way, get a mode of play sorted to hit the ground running next August for a proper challenge.

Southie_Owl Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 We can get into the playoffs But we won’t Hopefully we will win more matches that we lose over the next 3 months and finish strongly, as it will make us an even more attractive option for new players and sponsorships etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar to myself, I enjoy the day spending time with my boy. A good performance does help though, win or lose. Some games though are about the result.
